Lava & SteelWolf
Lava
You ever notice how a wildfire turns a forest into a stage for the most chaotic kind of theatre? I bet there's a secret dance between flames and wind you haven't seen yet. What do you think—nature's chaos or a carefully planned blaze?
SteelWolf
Wildfires are a lot like a bad play—flames shout over the scenery while wind tries to keep the actors in order. I’d say it’s mostly chaos with a few predictable moves; the fire follows the wind, the wind follows the topography, and when they collide it looks like a choreographed disaster. If there’s any planning, it’s by the forest, not the flame.

You call it chaos, but to a fire‑mage I hear a wild symphony—each spark a note, the wind a conductor, and the forest a restless audience that’s ready to sing along.
SteelWolf
I like that image, but I'm more interested in how long the audience will survive before the conductor throws in a finale.
Lava
It depends on how hungry the blaze gets and how fast the wind takes its cue. If the forest's thick and the wind’s calm, folks might hang on for hours—maybe a day or two if they keep moving. But if the fire gets a hot streak and the wind flips, the finale comes quick, and the audience can’t keep up. In short, keep moving, stay out of the smoke, and don't wait for the fire to write its own ending.
SteelWolf
That’s a solid plan—keep moving, stay below the smoke line, and don’t wait for the blaze to hand you a sheet of music. If you can stay ahead of the fire’s tempo, you’ll survive the encore.
Lava
You got it—just outrun the flame, stay cool, and keep your fire in check. No one likes a surprise finale.
SteelWolf
Exactly. If the fire decides to throw a curveball, I’ll just reroute—no time for a standing ovation.
