Success

Singed, but safe

You deposit the coughing chandler on the pavement outside. Tears run down his soot-blackened face. He babbles thanks and presses his last candle into your hands. It's a little squashy, but it seems ill-mannered to quibble.


Failure

The flames drive you back

The heat is too much! The fire reaches his storeroom, and the whole house roars into a tower of incandescent flame! The poor chandler screams and vanishes. The crowd applauds wildly!
