"Dragon's fire"

An old Mól incendiary, made up in sticks, whose recipe went out of the world long ago. Lady Talia Salahaudhi holds a couple of them, handed down through her family.

Asked how the guard tower still holding out against her people might be taken, she named them: one or two dropped down a chimney, or put through a window, would finish the men inside. She did not use them. She put the tower under siege instead, and the sticks stayed in the family’s keeping.
