The lifeforce/soul of a non-sentient animal was trapped in a "True Blue". This is a small lifelike model of the animal in an opaque blue stone.

A ritual to transfer this lifeforce/soul into the adventurer's sub-conscious has been performed. The soul is normally unnoticeable (and the effects listed below do not apply) but it can brought to the forefront (or returned to the background) by casting the following spell.
This spell is a non-colleged special knowledge which is known at rank 0 when the transfer ritual is complete.
