When lit, it allows the holder to travel to where they most want to go.

Why do you want one, Yvaine? Isn't a horse enough?

I'm afraid not.

I want to go a bit farther than that.

Though it's possible even with one in my possession I wouldn't get anywhere.

[ooc; I would say probably not ;; but I'm not 100% sure...I know there was a Yvaine before this one and it's possible she mentioned it but I don't know what the journal was, else I would check for you @///@! I'm sorry I'm not more sure! ]

How many miles to Babylon?
Three-score miles and ten.
Can I get there by candle-light?
Yes, there and back again.
If your heels are nimble and light,
You will get there by candle-light.

What's a Babylon Candle?

A candle--one that allows you to travel to where you most want to go very near to instantly.

Do you think it could work at getting people out of here?

shiningdown September 15 2010, 04:20:27 UTC
I think it probably won't, but that wouldn't stop me from trying if I had one in my possession.

Never even heard of it.

Perhaps your world doesn't have them to hear about.

fatespoken September 15 2010, 21:06:36 UTC
What are they, then?

Candles that, when lit, allow the holder to travel to where they most want to be, almost instantly.
