What mysterious treasure does Goju seek where nothing mortal may survive?

Dagger of True Sight
As a weapon the dagger is the standard (d4, 3).
The dagger can be used to remove the wielder’s own eye. If so then they gain their choice of the following spells: Scry, Divination or Truthsense. Only one spell can be gained by this method.
If a critical attack is made with the weapon then the spell is granted without the need to sacrifice an eye.
On a fumbled hit roll then one random eye explodes causing three damage, if the wielder has no remaining eyes, then their head explodes fatally.
