Suffusing all things, the Wind of Hysh is a fickle energy, but those that can trap and direct it are gifted with great powers. The Light Wizards study the magic of the sun, and can use its life-giving energies to heal, or harness its destructive might to blind and sear their foes.

6. Cleansing FlareCasting Value: 10+
With a deafening shout, the spellcaster summons shards of pure light from the heart of the sun itself. These rain from the skies into the ranks of the enemy like arrows from heaven.
