"Fire!" The patrons of the Northern Outskirts Brewery shouted.

Huge clouds of black smoke alerted many adventurers in the area, and they rushed in to respond. Four were killed trying to make entry to the engulfed building, while many sat on the sidelines content to let it "burn itself out". When it became apparent that the fire would soon spread to the surrounding area, a handful of adventurers decided to take action!

Some shifted into dragons, and gave the fire a wing buffet. They intended to blow away the smoke, but were apparently unaware that big fire + wind = bigger fire. They then decided to have the dragons dig up dirt to put on the fire. That took care of some of the outlying flames, but didn't help save the building. During the attack on the blaze, many explosions from inside the building sent flaming debris hurling at the impromptu firefighters.

Eventually someone thought it might be a good idea to put some of the water from the big lake behind the building on the fire. Their efforts proved successful in putting out the blaze, but by the time it happened the building had burned for too long. All that's left now is a pile of charred rubble, and a question as to who or what could have started the massive fire.

Febreth, one of the first to arrive, could merely cast a few spells and give advice for how to stop it from spreading.

Freezing the surrounding vegetation to keep it from drying out so easily and shouting seems all an out of commission shifter is able do.

Lisselle, was flying searching for fun when she sees the fire and hurry to the many people throwing ice spells on it. The smoke were going everywhere making her eyes full of tears. She approaches the fire trying to see if there were injured and her little wings got burned by an explosion.. A very nice and sweet healer took care of her, that could not stop quiet. She ran from a side to another and tried to help the guard Jaqueline to give orders since no one seemed to listen her.

Pvt. Jaqueline created a barricade after one person died trying to steal spirits, but three thick head males were still inside ignoring the guard. Little fey Liss, threatened the three of charming them into loving her and the job of evacuation were finally done.

However, the fire continued to spread, the barricaded was destroyed by magical earthquake and people went back to try to put the fire down, when the dragon Charming Shadowflame moved forward followed by the pink dragon summoned by Eneyla tried to help by blowing the fire, what made it burst. A fey (Sparks) and a dragonkin (Dentiah) entered the building for reasons that escapes the fey's memory and died burned. Liss seen people dying, fire going everywhere and people going nuts starts to get a little desperate and asked the Pvt Jaqueline what to do. The idea came then, dirt. Lets cover the fire with Dirt.

The huge dragons started digging and throwing dirt in the fire, but explosions kept occurring and the dirt work failed.

Liss looking at the back of the house, saw the lake and went to Pvt. Jaqueline saying. - We could use the water of the lake and surround the building with it so the fire will not spread, but how?

As she said it, people that listened had the idea to dig around the building, pulling water from the lake into it. The dragons went to do the work that seemed to be working fine, but not enough. Someone then had the great idea of digging in a way that the water would run below the building and on it. With the water running around the building and under it and with the help of adventurers that keep throwing dirt and water on the building, the fire was finally won by our hands.

However, a tragedy. Thinking that the fire was low enough for her to fly in and save the people inside by rising and healing them. Lisselle enters the building and is knocked out by the fire, smoke and pain as she is burnt. Her tiny body laid there without being able to breath, her little heart beating slowly. Her fey soul almost lost forever into darkness.

A shadow of some sort entered and rescued her, she wakes up outside the building, still in shock and burnt. Someone heals her and she cries still scaried, unable to fly with horror on her eyes. She sits and observes until the horrible event ends. She now fear fire more than legs (spiders).

Upon meeting up with what seemed to her an old ghost, Enelya walked the northern outskirts and came across a large crowd of confused people and looked up to see the brewery on fire. Pulling away from the person she was walking with she scanned the area for any familiar faces and caught sight of her founder and loving mother, Lady Charming Shadowflame. She slipped through the crowds and came close to her.

"M'lady... what has happened here?" Enelya whispered as she finally go to her side.

"A fire..." Charming solemnly said in return, as she watched the large crowd of people that Jaq. was attempting to keep away from the building.

"Has anyone attempted to use water or any forms of liquid or ice spells against this mess?" Enelya asked with her eyes focusing on the mess as well.

"Yes, I believe so.. didn't seem to do anything though." Charming replied.

Escusing herself from Charming's side, Enelya spotted one of her men, Nasher Shadowflame, and went across the barrier Jaq. had up to aid him. Immediately asking him if he was all right and what all had been used to stop the fire. A few near Enelya yelled not to use water that it had caused a large explosion just before Enelya had arrived. Standing on the spot with the fire spreading even worse, she frowned in thought. Her memory flashing as she recalled the fires she saw spreading in Kohl and also times before within Cordor itself.

"Jaq! We need shovels, pitch forks, anything you've got to dig up this dirt and get it around the base of this building or this fire will continue to spread." Enelya shouted over the crowd, as she went to reach for her own gear to see what she could use.

With the rush of the crowd trying to come near the harmful fire, Jaq at first did not respond. Eventually she turned to Enelya and looked at her. Enelya attempted to speak to her again. "Jaq. Is it all right with you if we summon dragons and those that can take the form of a dragon to dig up this dirt quicker and spread it along this building?" Jaq. responded finally, noticing that they were attempting to aid while she controlled the crowd from being harmed and said to do as they needed. Immediately Enelya raised a hand and called out to her guardian, her prismatic dragon Anawamane appeared before her. Speaking in a draconic tongue Enelya looked up to her dragon {Draconic} "Dig Anawamane! Dig up the dirt around this building! Smolder these flames!!!" Her dragon tilted her head but nodded and at once went to work; at her side Lady Charming took on her true, magnificent form and allowed her dragon form to come forth. She attempted to fly behind the building and allow her wings to blow up the water from the pond to hit against the building but her attempt back fired, a large explosion from the gust of wind that picked up with her attempt hit and Charming lunged back down, digging furiously with the other two dragons that now appeared.

Keeping her dragon in line, Enelya asked it to fly above the building, dropping large quantities of dirt on the roof and all around the base as Sir Nasher Shadowflames dragon attempted to do just the same along Charmings side. Charming roared out eventually as another explosion is heard inside. {Draconic} EEnnn. This is not working! Get those dragons to the front we're pushing this building into the pond!"

Enelya blinked and gasped. {Draconic} "No! We can't push it into the water we'll destroy the building for sure."

Charming - {Draconic} "Well we have to do something!." She went to the front of the building and began to press at it. "This isn't working."

Turning around quickly, Enelya yelled over the crowd to Jaq. again. "Charmings wants us to press the building in, what do you want us to do? I don't want this building to be destroyed!."

Jaq - "Do what you have to do just get that fire to stop!!" She yelled in return, as her face was focused on the crowd of people, keeping them held between tables she had placed out. Enelya heard someone near by mention attempting water again... .oO(Fine)Oo. she thought to herself .oO(If they want this thing destroyed anyways we'll do what we have to)Oo. thinking quickly Enelya stepped closer and started barking demands to her family.

{Draconic} "The pond in the back! Build a dang trench and do it fast! AROUND THE BACK! DIG!." Looking up and slightly startled the dragons stopped and moved to the back, stomping right into the water and digging furiously along the building. Enelya steps deep into the water herself, diving her hands into the mud with ashes flying all around her, digging with all her might at the dirt until she remembers her own spells. She steps back and casts rays of frost heavily against all blazing flames near and occasionally big by-hands against the dirt to help them. Seeing that this was working she yelled out to her dragon again. {Draconic} "WATER Anawamane. Open your mouth and collect this water! UP! Fly up and spread it!!" Her dragon nodded in understanding and obeyed. The water sprayed over all that were near and especially the roof of the house. Seeing this was working Enelya ran to the front again.

"Shovels, picks, buckets of water. Whatever you people have and are willing we need your aid around the rest of this building! Use the dirt use the water whatever you have!"

Jaq shook her head and looked to Ene. "It's to late for that. We've already summoned a beholder to work with the trench." Enelya looked at them and facepalmed.

"Then you guys can either stand there and wait for this.. beholder.. to show up, or get in here and help before this just keeps spreading. Your choice."

Jaq. did not respond, again to busy with the crowd control to probably of even heard her. Enelya turned around and pulled out a dagger, thrusting it down into the nearest dirt pile to break it apart. Yelling to her men over her shoulder as she furiously went back to working. {Draconic} "DIG! Spread this trench all the way around!"

A few from the crowd came forward. Slowly others saw Enelya on her hands and knees, digging with all her might to spread this trench as they came forward with shovels and buckets and dug along side her. Eventually this was successful... the flames subsided from their efforts but do to the lack of communication and coming onto the scene late, the building was a total loss.... A few summoned some shades to enter the building and drag out the four bodies that were killed within the fire. Luckily, their remains were intact enough to bring these poor souls back to life.

With a heavy sigh Enelya stood there, looking at the destroyed building as the crowd began to disperse. She walked over and picked up a heavy piece of wood and a twisted form of metal. "You did good work." Came Jaq.'s voice with a grin that could be heard. "yeah... good work everyone... good work." Enelya said with a sad tone. She bent down and began to clean up the mess as everyone dispersed. Nasher came to Enelya's side along with Feb and began to help as well. Enelya ordered Nasher to go to the manor and bring their men to aid in this mess. With a salute and a respectful nod he replied "Yes ma'am." All that day and into the night, and still when people pass. They will see the aid of Shadowflame men, cleaning up the rubbled mess of the building. Hoping that no one gets hurt from the mess and wondering who had done this to the outskirts their family alone and all of Cordor residence often traveled through and enjoyed.

Arriving back in Cordor too late to catch word of the events, Tamine catches sight of the ruined brewery and stumbles to a halt, stunned. She shakes her head in disbelief, hazel eyes widened slightly, face frozen in a neutral mask, hiding her grief.

She remains staring from the shadows for quite some time, remembering all the good times she'd shared here with friends in the past, many of whom have gone from the isle forever. Eventually pulling herself together again, she sets off with dry eyes and a look of firm resolve, determined to find those responsible for this destruction.
