This command enables you to light a torch or a lamp or whatever light-source you are carrying. A light source will not shed any light unless it is equipped somehow, for example by holding it in your hand.

To get more light, buy a stronger light source (for example a lantern).

Initially you can choose to become a member of any four login guilds (there are many more, but they are not suited for novice players). The guild determines what skills you can learn and have a major impact on how you get yourself out of trouble. If you would like to start in a guild that is not listed in the initial log in screen simply pick a login guild that would compliment the guild you want to join. When you log into the game go to the guild you picked and quit it, you may then join the guild of your choice with no penalty.
An entire law system is built into Valhalla. All players and all monsters belonging to any major cities, castles and villages are protected by the law. You are not allowed to kill or steal from people which are protected, unless they are caught in the act of stealing or killing PROTECTED characters.
If you witness a crime you can accuse the person which committed the crime at the city guard Captain. The Captain is usually located at the city guard headquarters. If a protected npc witness a crime it will walk to the captain and accuse the offender.
If you have committed a certain number of crimes the guards may attempt to arrest you. Once they handcuff you it is possible to attempt an escape by typing 'break' to attempt breaking the handcuffs.
If you have committed several crimes after having been declared 'wanted' you will be 'wanted dead or alive'. This means that you are no longer protected by the law system. At this point there will be a reward on your head, offering both money and experience for your death. All guards attack on sight. Players are allowed to kill you.
Once in jail you have to wait for some pretty strong friends to free you or for a long time to pass.
Your misdeeds are forgotten if you get killed or when you have served
your jail sentence. But beware *any* crime reported after being cleared
will make you a criminal instantly.
