Every child has tried to catch light in a box. A few succeeded.

This utterance causes the touched object to re-emit visible light it has absorbed over the course of its existence. The object radiates light at a 5 ft. range, much like a candle, for the duration of the utterance. No heat is emitted, and the color of the light is red.

Objects affected by light echo are not bright enough to harm Otherworld creatures. Also, remember that red and orange light do not interfere with manifestation, though they can help enhance a survivor's line of sight.

Echelon 1: As above.
Echelon 2: The area of effect is 10 ft., and the light turns orange.
Echelon 3: The area of effect is 20 ft., and the light turns yellow-green.
Echelon 4: The area of effect is 40 ft., and the light turns turquoise.
Echelon 5: The area of effect is 80 ft., and the light turns bright white.
