The Torch is a key progression item tied to the Saber Puzzle, where it serves as one of the required components alongside the Cup and Ancient Relic. It plays a purely functional role in the questline rather than offering combat or utility benefits on its own.

Obtainment:

The Torch is a progression item tied to the Saber Puzzle, obtained in the center of Jungle Island beneath the building that houses the Adventurer Quest Giver. Access to it is locked until players activate all five pressure plates or buttons scattered around the island, which causes a trapdoor to open under the building. Inside the hidden room revealed below, the Torch appears alongside a Diamond Chest and a clue for the next stage of the puzzle. It has no combat or utility function on its own and exists purely as a required item for progressing through the Saber Puzzle chain.
Usage:
The Torch is used in the Saber Puzzle progression, where it is required to burn a curtain inside a red-doored house in the Desert. Doing this reveals a hidden room that contains an empty Cup and an additional clue for the puzzle, making it an essential step for advancing the quest chain. While it can technically provide a small amount of light in dark areas, this effect is minimal and rarely useful since players can simply increase their device brightness instead.
