STARDUSK calls forth a bluish light increasing visibility at night. Can only be cast above ground between 5 PM and 7 AM. Similar to lighting a Torch, but can last longer.

Example: Cast STARDUSK after nightfall at the Maximum Cost (15). Light will last for 12 hours, i.e. 15 * 48 minutes. [A torch lasts for 8 hours, but using a Ring of Prandur will give 24 hours of light.]

NOTE ON THE PASSING OF TIME: Game time is measured in Steps. Above Ground a Large Step is equivalent to 4 minutes, a Medium Step is equivalent to 2 minutes, a Small Step equivalent to 1 minute. Time passes differently in Dungeons: here a Large Step is equivalent to 1 minute, a Medium Step takes 1/2 a minute, a Small Step 1/4 of a minute.
