About Courier of the Crypts

The torch both protects against dark spirits and changes how the environment behaves. Switching its flame on and off helps solve puzzles and manage enemies: some avoid it, others try to extinguish it, and certain threats can be lured into traps or sneaked past. Its limited flame must not run out.
