Sometimes even a Peace Fire has to suffer getting wet. Hopefully, underneath the galvanized cover that acts like a slow combustion wood heater, a few logs are smoldering away, sheltered from the sprinkler, just waiting their chance to breath a little more oxygen. However, since there has been a Total Fire Ban across the whole state of Tasmania for the last two days, and I have chosen to honour this ban by not putting any new wood on an "exposed" fire, the Peace Fire's eternal flame might be reduced to just a few warm embers by the time the ban is lifted late tonight or tomorrow morning. No worries. If need be, there will be a ritual re-lighting.
