Huh. Well, uh.

I have alotta extra candles.

A lot.

So if anyone wants some they can have 'em.

Just don't go walkin' into any dark corners t'get 'em. I'll bring them t'you, no big deal.

This is quite th'solstice y'have here, Deior. Bein' the festival of light and all.

[Pause.]

There's plenty of food, too, if anyone wants that.

What if you run out of candles?

[thenotmagician]

We hope that doesn't happen!

[fallintheriver]

But what if? How many candles is lots?

How long do candles last, anyhow?

[thenotmagician]

Until they burn out.

Don't worry, Ezra. If I run outta candles, there's still plenty of other light sources we can rely on. It'll be fine.
