In late 15th century England, people used candles made from tallow (animal fat), beeswax, or rushes (dried reeds). Wealthier households would also use lamps with oil or wax, while others used torches or fireplaces for light. Additionally, some towns had street lighting, usually with oil lamps.

As mentioned, candles were a common source of light in late 15th century England. Tallow candles, made of animal fat, were the most affordable option and widely used by common people, while beeswax candles were more expensive and used by the wealthier households. Tallow candles emitted a strong odor while burning and produced black soot, which made them less desirable. Beeswax candles, on the other hand, were considered superior in quality as they burned brighter and emitted less smoke and odor. Rushlights were also commonly used in England at this time. Rushes were dried reeds that were dipped in melted tallow to create a crude candle. These rushlights provided a dim light and burned quickly, requiring frequent replacement. In wealthier households, lamps were used to provide light. These lamps burned oil or wax and could be suspended from the ceiling or placed on a table. Glass lamps with metal frames were also developed during this period, which allowed for a larger and brighter flame. Torches were another option for lighting, primarily used to light outdoor areas or for traveling at night. They were made from tightly bound reeds or wood sticks that were dipped in pitch or tar to create a torch that burned brightly for a short time. Finally, some towns had street lighting, usually in the form of oil lamps mounted on poles or hanging from brackets on buildings. This was primarily found in larger cities where there was more commerce at night.

"Her ability to fall asleep was also wonderful. Indeed, for her, who had been experiencing harsh days, this leisurely D'Olonne must have felt like heaven. In her hand, the rope was also tied, just like with Siesta, and she was holding Louise's hand. She did not want to leave the bed alone, but she couldn't let her guard down completely because there was a strong helper. Louise then looked up at the ceiling and let out a deep sigh. What will happen now? She shook her head. The thought of the magical stones, which sleep beneath the land of Halkeginia, going out of control and causing the earth to turn over, crossed her mind. Oh, what if the ground were to rise up while she was sleeping? Would she be lifted up along with the ground to the sky? Louise imagined floating continents like Albion, drifting through the air. She imagined herself and Saito standing side by side on one of the small floating islands, which measures only a few hundred miles. It was a small island with a small mansion and a small pond... If it were above the sky, the maid sleeping on the left side could not sneak in anymore. Chuckling to herself, she thought it would be better to just look up from below, and she was ashamed of her own imagination."
