Topic: torch

Explanation:

A torch is the simplest and perhaps the oldest man-made source of light. Most torches are little more than a short club-like hunk of wood with one end dipped in oil for easy lighting and extra illumination.

To use a torch in Tempora Heroica, you must first light it for it to be of any use. Matches and tinderboxes work well for this, and both are available in Wivernhoe. After the torch is lit, it must either be held in the off-hand or dropped on the ground for it to light the room; leaving it in your inventory will not allow it to illuminate the area. Once lit, a torch cannot be extinguished.

Example:

> light torch with match

> hold torch
