Illuminated Bows
Have you ever come across a situation where you couldn't see down a cave but wish you could? Well now, you can!
Introducing Illuminated Bows - for all your illumination needs.
So just what do you get for your hard earned kilobytes? I'm glad you asked! You get an Illuminated Bow and Illuminated arrows, capable of creating light from a safe distance! Also included are Illuminated Trees, Leaves, Logs, Planks, Stairs and Slabs! All of these emit quite the amount of light. All you'll need is an illuminated sapling...
If you're running with Thaumcraft installed you'll also see a neat little magical addition to your Illuminated toolkit...

Big thank you to Wyld on Twitch and his chat for the original idea, KiwiFails for the amazing texture work and also #MinecraftForge and tterrag1098 for helping me out when I'm a bit dumb and also for providing the amazing render on the Wand Focus.
