Description
A small mod designed for stealth characters using extremely dark interiors from ENB or weather presets.  The candle illuminates a small area in front of the player, thus allowing the player to items in front of them to steal, and avoiding the use of a torch(lighting up the entire room and increasing the risk of being detected)  Currently, there is only one variation of candle, but if requested enough I may consider adding more.  Additionally, the radius of light on the candle is extremely small, but if requested, I will make a double radius version.  This mod was loosely inspired by the lighter used in the Metro series.

*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Location
There is a small chest called "Candle Storage" located in the ragged flagon, on the right directly after the tavern sign.  There are 10 in the chest, and they are set to last for an extremely long time, so its unlikely you will run out in a play through.  In an emergency, you can type: help "small candle"    into the console and use additem to get some more.  In later versions I may make them sold by Tonilia.

Installation/Uninstallation
To install, simply use any mod manager of your choice.  Manually, extract the file and copy the data folder to your Skyrim directory, then make sure to activate the plugin.  To uninstall, deactivate it in your manager.  Manually, go to your data folder and delete meshes/weapons/heldcandle and the HoldableCandleV1.0.esp.

*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************
Incompatibilities
None I am aware of at the moment, if anyone comes across anything let me know.  The most likely circumstance would be a mod that modifies the Ragged Flagon and covers up the chest.  If this happens I will move the chest to a more convenient location.
