Candlelight is a Novice-level Alteration spell. When cast, a hovering orb of light follows the caster, staying luminous for 60 seconds. It uses a small portion of the caster's magicka and need only be used once a minute to keep an area lit.

PerksEdit

When dual cast, the duration of the spell increases to around two minutes and ten seconds. When used in conjunction with the Stability perk, the light orb lasts for about 3 minutes and 20 seconds.

UsefulnessEdit

Candlelight can be very effective in dark dungeons instead of using a torch, which occupies a hand; with Candlelight cast, shields, weapons, and other spells can be wielded instead.
