The spell is obtained by reading a spell tome found with the Lens of Truth in Kakariko Fairy Fountain.

== Lore ==
The spell requires the use of a spell tome to prevent the Lens of Truth from being used by evildoers to reveal secrets left by those loyal to the Hyrule Royal Family. Given the presence of markings in very specific locations, descendants of the Sheikah Tribe may exist in Skyrim, but are well hidden. Another possibility is that the markings are magically connected to the items they mark. The ability of the spell to reveal certain ghosts may be a result of their proximity to Hylian magic. 
== Background and Inspiration ==
Eye of Truth was based on the function of the Lens of Truth in Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask. 
The spell was in development for several months and went through various iterations. JKalenad's original plan was for the spell to scan the player's vicinity and highlight items related to Relics of Hyrule, such as masks or weapons or containers, depending on the focus of the Lens of Truth. This approach proved to be too difficult and unreliable to implement, so JKalenad reworked the spell to function similarly to the Song of Time. As such, only certain locations have valid connections to the spell.
In version 6.5.16, an unfinished version of the spell was accessible. This was corrected in 6.5.17 by removing the spell from its tome. The spell was finished and returned to the spell tome in version 6.5.18.
