Lantern

A Lantern is a lightsource and when equipped, it's placed in the left hand. It's constantly lighting and compared to the torch, it will never go out. If the player equip the Lantern and then equip certain weapons like the Mighty Axe or a bow, the Lantern will be put away. This is because the weapon requires both hands.
