It was a terrible sight to behold, for any flame is a captivating display of inorganic life, but a pillar of flame several miles high is more than just an enlarged specimen, for it plays host to a great horde of phantasmal apparitions that wrestle ferociously with one another.

reconnoiter the feelings of my comrades I was fruitless, for they all wore impermeable countenances, though that was itself an indicator of their resolve. Within an hour after the fall of darkness we reached the outskirts of Nunami, or rather, its edge, for it was walled in with massive stone walls and battlements, with a sturdy gate of twenty foot width being placed at the northern, southern, eastern, and western ends. The trees hung right over the walls, and as such we were able to take positions from which we could descend into the city when the time to do so came. Yet we were still rendered invisible by the thick foliage. Night's zenith blew in slowly on the wind like the belabored breaths of a dying man, and after a period of worry, it came: midnight, the appointed hour. No sooner had the moon reached its utmost height, shrouding the lands in a shadowless vortex, than a great blaze erupted from the northern lands, and it rose almost instantly to its estimated height of five miles. OKED ABOUT MYSELF TO RECONNOIRE THE FEELINGS OF MY COMRADES I WAS FRUITLESS FOR THEY ALL WORE IMPERMANABLE COUNTENANCES THOUGH THAT WAS ITSELF AN INDICATOR OF THEIR RESOLVE WITHIN AN HOUR AFTER THE FALL OF DARKNESS WE REACHED THE OUTSKIRTS OF NUNEMI OR RATHER ITS EDGE FOR IT WAS A WALLED IN WITH MASSIVE STONE WALLS AND BATTLEMENTS WITH A STURDY GATE OF TWENTY FOOT WIDTH BEING PLACED AT THE NORTHERN SOUTHERN EASTERN AND WESTERN ENDS THE TREES HUNG RIGHT OVER THE WALLS AND AS SUCH WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE POSITIONS FROM WHICH WE COULD DESCEND INTO THE CITY WHEN THE TIME TO DO SO CAME YET WE WERE STILL RENDERED INVISIBLE BY THE THICK FOLIAGE NIGHT'S ZENITH BLEW IN SLOWLY ON THE WIND LIKE THE BELABORED BREATHS OF A DYING MAN AND AFTER A PERIOD OF WORRY IT CAME MIDNIGHT THE APPOINTED HOUR NO SOONER HAD THE MOON REACHED ITS UTMOST HEIGHT SHROUDING THE LANDS IN A SHADOWLESS VORTEX THAN A GREAT BLAZE ERUPTED FROM THE NORTHERN LANDS AND IT ROSE ALMOST INSTANTLY TO ITS ESTIMATED HEIGHT OF FIVE MILES
