Moving between the two light sources wasn't giving him much illumination to work with. He waited for a moment, looking at the light ahead. Slowly, the light brightened. He remained still, preparing himself to withdraw. He peeled off the bits of rope and felt around for the remains of the trap, grimacing as his hands darted among the instincts. He gathered the pieces of rope into a small pile that might catch on someone's foot. If the light kept growing, he would retreat.

The light continued to grow brighter, but then it started to dim again.

There is a light down there that waxes and wanes. I didn't try to get too close yet, for I do not know if it is moving or not. It is either rising or falling of its own accord, or the source is moving.
