Pathfinder U2

The heroes defeated the wraiths and found a secret door behind a section of broken mirrors in the far wall. The next chamber is cozy, with empty bookcases lining the walls and a reading table with several matching chairs sat atop a thick rug in its center. A heavy wooden door exits the room through the wall to the south. The next room was once a fine library, but the books held in this large chamber — along with the bookshelves that once held them — have been destroyed by fire and force.

As a standard action, the wearer can cause any weapon or item he holds to become invisible for 3 minutes, during which it is clear the wearer is holding something, but it’s not possible to see exactly what it is.
