Torch

A torch is made of 10 branches. It used to cost 11 meat cuts in previous game versions, but has a negligible value in v3.16. You need fire to light it. When lit, it provides up to a 6 tile radius of visibility in complete darkness which lasts for around one to three hours. It weighs one pound.

Tallow and Beeswax candles serve much the same function, but can only be traded for.

Torches are made through the [M]ake->[U]tility Items menu.
