I have human paladin (level 6) and he suffers from the same problem the rest
of his race does. He uses a 2 handed sword so I can't carry anything in my
hands. I have the worn newbie candle in my pack for light. I bought a
lantern but it did nothing in my pack. I was looking in the bazaar and saw
lightstones, mechanical light emitters and various creature eyes. Are any
of these a better light then my candle and can they be used from my pack?
When I look at the items it makes no mention of range or brightness.
