Do you <span class="mu-i">really</span> need to use magic? Well, yes, probably, but you don't need to use it for every little inconvenience. Maybe you can lead the fireflies with your hands to light the way up? You try to shoo the fireflies in the direction you want, but it doesn't work. You try to catch one, but they lose their light when in your hands. You're not sure if they lose their light when they're stressed, or if they only do it when they're flying.
Killing one, obviously, stops them from producing light.
Still, you try to catch as many as you can and release them near a path you want them to light up. It works...somewhat, you can see moss walls and-
<span class="mu-s">SNAP</span>
You see the lights of the fireflies go out one by one, each accompanied by a snapping sound. They don't all die in the same spot either, the only pattern seems to be that they all die near the walls, while any firefly floating in the middle are safe.
You use mana feel to see if you can detect anything since it's basically free, but it looks like the entire dungeon is full of mana, and the only way to get useful info from mana feel is to...well, feel it, by touch.
You think of releasing more fireflies on the other paths, but you don't have an infinite amount of them, you could maybe light up one more path with them, but maybe it's better to save them up for later?
You do have a weird idea of using tracking scent to find your way back to err, something, but that's a rather expensive spell, and will that really stop you from getting snapped by whatever's out there?
