Practitioners of Illumination rely upon their own Inner Spark to fuel their evocations, and also upon a sacred flame. In days past, the Daru and the Luminaries each maintained their own flames, which they termed Sparks - in the present day, however, a Grand Flame burns atop the Temple in [[Enorian]], and both guilds make a practice of meditating upon it to restore their own Inner Spark. Evocations take a number of forms - offensive, defensive, and restorative arts number among Illumination's applications.
