Though attributed to Aion, no Zodiac Society sorcerers have ever learned this working as a spell. Still, it is a ritual in frequent use by the Society. Although its existence is something of a common secret among Society agents, the actual ritual is closely guarded, with access granted only to trusted agents.
When performed in a given spot, this allows the ritualist to direct their mystic senses to the different eras of history that have occurred in that area with a Perception check (DC based on what they are looking for). Once they have studied the scenes revealed to them, the magician mystically reaches into the past and snatches forward an item (no more than 4 cubic feet in volume) from that past! Though the item does not disappear from the past, for the purposes of sympathy and other mystical effects, it is the same item.
