May 14, 2015 I have Silverlight 5 installed on my Windows 8.1 64-bit computer. When I try to watch Amazon Instant Video, I get a prompt telling me to install Silverlight for better quality. I also cannot get Silverlight tests to run. There is nothing wrong with my installation, I just have to use Internet Explorer for Silverlight-based viewing. Silverlight is a demon-slaying sword that is very effective against demonic creatures. It is first obtained during the quest Demon Slayer, where it is used to defeat Delrith. During Shadow of the Storm, Silverlight is dyed black using black mushroom ink, and later becomes Darklight after it is stained with the blood of Agrith-Naar. If it is lost, it can be bought back from Sir Prysin for 500gp.
