Summary

The chapter describes a fire that broke out in a grain storage camp in the Northern Desert. The grain supervisor and other drunken companions were slow to react, and when they realized there was a fire, they heard panicked shouts about a water leak. Despite the camp's fire prevention measures, the fire spread rapidly, likely due to the old grain stored there. It's suggested that the fire was not an accident, but rather a planned action, possibly by the enemy. The chapter ends with the grain supervisor and others not targeting a scholar who may be their enemy.
