Well I've recently been re-reading the lord of the rings book and I came across a certain fact about lothlorien. In the mod the forest is lit up with hundreds and hundreds of torches. Though in the book, it is lit up in a completely different way. Spoken about when the fellowship comes near to caras galadhon the elves light up a certain type of light that is torch nor lantern, these things seem to be living flames of elven magic that light up in the colours green, gold and silver. They are said to light up at night so I'm guessing they should be inactive at certain light levels, and as soon as it is dark in a room or outside they should flame up. If you have ever played the mod thaumcraft you will probably know the substance called "Nitor" this is something that looks exactly like the description of the elf lights only in the wrong colour, since it is an orange/red colour. These lights should be found and used instead of the torches in lorien. They would be made with as first ingredient quendite, as second ingredient I would say glowstone dust but that is not found in lorien so I'm not sure what to add in it's place. Though glowstone dust would make hte most sense, natural lights would be green as the blue of the quendite and yellow of the glowstone dust makes green, simple colour maths really :P you could make these lights gold and silver by adding a golden or silver nugget to it. After you crafted the elf light, you should also be able to put them in a lantern, which are described in the book as well, these would be made by an elf light in the middle slot of the galadhrim crafting table (the one used for all these recipes by the way) the top and bottom rows of silver ingots and the 2 side slots of glass, you can carry this lantern around and by shiftclicking turn it on or of by sliding open the slits in the lantern, or you can use it for decoration and put it down or hang it up, I suggest the lantern looking like the bibliocraft "fancy" lanterns but in a silver colour, to addition there could maybe be silver chains, 3 silver ingots in a vertical row in a galadhrim crafting table would make about 6 silver chains which you can hang on the bottom of blocks and on the end add a lantern hanging on the chain, this would also replace the fences with mallorn blocks and torches hanging below the galadhrim treehouses. Hope you like this suggestion and give feedback please as I'm trying to come up with some good elven suggestions, as they are my favourite race :P
