Glass candles

It was said that they had been brought to Oldtown from Valeyria a thousand years before the Doom.There were four ,one was green and three were black ,and all were tall and twisted.

It is claimed that when the glass candles burn the sorcerers can see across mountains, seas and deserts, give men visions and dreams and communicate with one another half a world apart.

The glass candle is meant to represent truth and learning,rare and beautiful and fragile things .It is made in shape of candle to remind us that knowledge can be dangerous.Wise men may grow arrogant in their wisdom,but a masster must always remain humble. The glass candle remind a maester to think back on the darkness of his vigil and remembere how nothing that he did could make the candle burn...for even with knowledge,some things are not possible.
