Notes

Scintillation Solution

This potion is also known as Bottled Starlight. Contained in a clear vessel, it will emit a bright golden light, and can be used to illuminate the darkness. The shelf-life is fairly limited, however, and even the strongest potion will dim after about one month. If exposed to air and/or spilled, the fluid produces impressive sparks for about 30 seconds before settling down. The object or area upon which it is splashed will glow until the natural effects of the potion wear off.
