By means of this spell the druid causes a common-type fire of up to 12’ per side in area boundary. While it lasts but a single round, the fire produced by the spell will cause 1-4 hit points of damage on creatures within its area; and it will ignite combustible materials such as cloth, oil, paper, parchment, wood and the like so as to cause continued burning. The reverse, quench fire, will extinguish any normal fire (coals, oil, tallow, wax, wood, etc.) within the area of effect.
