Lore of Light
This magic taps into the power of light and its
many aspects. Its users not only conjure literal
light but can ignite the light in the souls of others,
healing or inspiring them. Some magic from this lore
even blesses creatures with the ability to move at light
speed. The following spells are examples of the types of
magic users of the Lore of Light often wield.
