Hi all, in short, the question is that one in the title.

To add context, we are running the Horrors demo. Try to not give me spoilers, but I don't know if the GM changed anything, so here's what I know: we just talked with the lady wizard (or whatever she is) and she explained we must quench a candle that has been put in the graveyard, since it raises undead from nearby corpses.
Thing is this candle is only visible at night, so normally the PCs would be forced to look for it during the more dangerous hours of darkness. But since it's a magic item, I (playing a 1st level Druid) asked if I could find it during the day by scanning the area with at-will Detect Magic.
The GM wasn't sure because maybe you have to actually see an item to have its magic aura outlined, but Detect Magic doesn't say anything about visible or invisible things.
So (for the next times the issue may come up too), how would it work exactly, and is there any relevant part in the rulebook about this?
