This spell allows the caster to communicate complex thoughts (including magical symbols, diagrams, maps, explanatory images—which may move in sequence to show a procedure—and the like) silently to the mind of the recipient by touch. This spell is often used to show an individual the likenesses of other beings as an aid to recognizing them, to show a clear route or directions to an unfamiliar place, or to quickly transfer lists of names, heraldic devices, or other symbols. The information is transferred instantaneously, leaving the recipient to mull its implications over later. This allows the spell to be of use to dying priests who have little time left or in the frenzy of battle when only moments of contact are possible.

Notes: Granted by Oghma, Lord of Knowl­edge, in the Forgotten Realms setting.
