Such has been the frequent call in Port Argentium as of late. All over, things are catching fire. Tents, houses, bits of grass, sometimes even people. If it’s exposed to the open air and flammable, it’s liable to light aflame, turning the already hot summer months that much hotter.
If you see them early, it’s not difficult to stamp out a little spot where the grass has lit aflame. But not all of them are seen so quickly, and so bucket brigades have been swiftly assembled and work at all hours, doing what they can to put out the fires.
The Dawn Riders have been put to work as fire-spotters, circling above the settlement to spot fires and point them out before they grow too large. Thus far, naught beyond a few tents has been lost to the flames, but the constant threat of spontaneous combustion is certainly keeping the people of Port Argentium on edge.
What could be the cause?
