[Spells help] continual light

Syntax: cast 'continual light' <target>

This seemingly simple spell can often be invaluable to any race not blessed with the ability to see in the dark. With it, the caster infuses an object with an unnatural glow that is bright enough for the object to act as a light source. This spell is fairly powerful, thus the object will never
cease to glow once infused.

What am I doing wrong?

Oops! I figured it out, thanks!

I don't know exactly what went wrong, or what you did right to fix it.

Just FYI though, sometimes you can't see in a room, even though you have something glowing. If that ever happens, typo log it so the Imms can look at it.

What he did wrong was not wear the item glowing.
Glowing items in your inventory do not give the room you are in light.
It should probably say in the help file something about wearing or holding the item to cast its light around the room.
