Candlelight (Skyrim)

Candlelight is a novice-level Alteration spell in .
==Effects==
When cast, Candlelight produces a hovering orb of light that 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.
==Perks==
When dual cast, the duration of the spell increases to two minutes and twelve seconds. When used in conjunction with the Stability perk, the light orb lasts for about 3 minutes and 20 seconds.
==Usefulness==
*Candlelight is the magical version of a held torch, except better in almost every way, with only one additional downside.
*Like all learned spells, it is weightless, infinitely reusable, and hands-free. The glowing orb produced also hovers out of the way over one's head instead of staying in the field of view like a torch. Like the torch, it goes away in time, but unlike a torch, it can not be put away to decrease the likelihood of being detected — it must expire on its own.
*It is very effective in any dark location, though places with ubiquitous spider webs can become exceedingly bright, which can prevent loot from being detected.
*It is extremely useful inside the Twilight Sepulcher and some Black Books where the Dragonborn needs some source of light to avoid taking damage while stepping into dark areas.

==Drawbacks==
*There is no way to cancel the effect of the spell other than waiting until the spell duration is over.
*The lighting effect makes the caster easier to detect when invisible, while sneaking, or when a bounty has been accrued.
*If the caster goes underwater, the orb follows but above the surface, making it less useful for illuminating darker waters like lake bottoms.
