DESCRIPTION

You cause all walls, towers, doors, and other surfaces within your stronghold to glow brightly, creating bright light within 40 feet, normal light within 80 feet, and dim light within 120 feet. This does not stack with other forms of magical light and does not suppress or dispel magical darkness effects within the area. It can be used to counter a magical darkness spell of 4th level or lower if cast within your stronghold.

* Stronghold Spells

As an optional rule, many of the spells designed to defend a stronghold below may be ruled to function only in an area that is a fixed point of defense called your stronghold. For the purpose of a stronghold spell, your stronghold must be a specific location or structure you designate, no larger than a cube 30 feet per level on a side. If this covers only part of a larger structure or location, you may use stronghold spells only within the designated area. You must spend at least seven days focusing on your stronghold, meditating upon its every detail, placing magical marks that resonate with your personal magic.

You may have only one stronghold at a time. If you create and designate a new one, the benefits of the old one fade immediately. Your death does not alter your stronghold, and stronghold spells persist after your death to the extent of their normal duration.
