Spoofing the elements

(Added this info/link to the earlier post, but thinking that it’s cool enough to deserve its own...)

For those of you concerned about this being some kind of disaster waiting to happen… turns out the cauldron’s flame isn’t actually fire, but two other elements: air and water. It’s pressurized water vapor “steam” illuminated by LEDs

Organisers say during the day, the cauldron will be on the ground in the city’s Tuilleries Gardens but during the evening, it will be tethered in place and raised 30 m into the air. …The ring at the base of the balloon houses 40 LED lights which illuminate a cloud of water vapour produced by 200 high-pressure misting nozzles to give the flickering and smoke effect of real flames. “Light, magical and unifying, it will be a beacon in the night and a sun within reach during the day. The fire that burns in it will be made of light and water, like a cool oasis in the heart of summer.”

More details here at Euronews.

I don’t think of myself as a fire unsafe person, and to experiment with oil lamps I got this $10 stock pot to help mitigate risk. But it just makes me feel more secure about regular candles, too.

And think of the cauldron symbolism opportunities.

Fuming Geyser: A Torkoal of a Bygone Era!?

There have been sightings, deep down the rocky seaside cliffs of Paldea, of a strange creature called Fuming Geyser. A similar being was described in the Scarlet Book, hence the borrowing of its name.

The pool of boiling water in its rocky shell has prompted speculation that Fuming Geyser may be an ancestor of Torkoal from millions of years ago. However, there is little fossil evidence that Torkoal has ever carried water in its shell.

Iron Cauldron: The Energy Source of the Future!?

In the extreme corners of Paldea lies an odd creature known as Iron Cauldron, which gets its name from a strange vessel recorded in the Violet Book. Very few sightings of it have been reported, but it is said to resemble Torkoal.

The temperature of the liquid kept in the basin on its back is said to fluctuate by hundreds of degrees in a matter of seconds, causing some to theorize that it is a futuristic generator of sorts. When it heats up, its temperament appears to become more aggressive.

The dawn of November 1, 1945.

With the chaos of a recently graduated Tom Riddle sent out into the world, and the ministry breathing that much more down Albus Dumbledore's neck for the last few weeks after he'd been forced on "administrative leave" by the ministry while he was in their custody for the last several weeks, beaten and tortured until he gave into their demands to duel Gellert Grindelwald once more. He knew his husband's actions had grown more horrific over the years that even he could not ignore, and between that, the torture...

He had accepted.

The ministry was unaware of his possession of the resurrection stone, given to him by Flamel in case things turn for the worst in that duel. He's made enough potion to live out the next fifty years with himself and his wife- Should Albus not come home from this. Days before, he had sent out a letter. Part of him hoped it did not make it to him, or he would simply ignore his ridiculous quest for a final duel, to see who would finally come out on top. Or, in the ministries eyes.. If good would triumph over evil.

For the greater good.

Days later, he had anxiously arrived at that location, dressed in his usual attire. His wand was grasped tightly in his hand, other shoved in his pocket, wrapped tightly around the stone in his pocket. He had used illusion charms to hide what a wreck he really looked like, after what the ministry had put him through for the last several weeks. In his weakened state he might've still been quite the formidable opponent- But the ministries underestimated Grindelwald when it came to Dumbledore. He truly didn't know who would triumph this time. He hoped so desperately that the letter had not made it, or he would refuse.

But when was luck ever on Albus Dumbledore's side? @magicblooms

Electricity.

It crackled through the air, and before the spell had the chance to completely strike Credence down- They all drew their wands, just like so many decades ago back at Godric's Hollow- He'd been watching Gellert out of the corner of his eye, knowing he was prone to doing something, anything drastic when he felt he was cornered. Two brothers against Gellert Grindelwald, to protect an obscurial. If anyone was dying tonight, by Merlin's beard it would not be another obscurial he would let die by their hands, but to protect. He heard a snap as the chain on the blood troth broke, and his eyes flickered up quickly to those mismatched ones he'd fallen in love with so many years ago at Godric's Hollow, reading the look on his face.

They were suddenly surrounded in some kind of impenetrable force field, a magical fog as the blood troth hung in the air beside him. He quickly pulled out his wand, blasting spells back and fourth as the air around them crackled with electricity of the raw power between them- No holding back this time. Blasts of spells and debris and raw power crashed around them as they duelled, growing closer and closer still. Until he had his wand aimed at his lover, his best friend, his everything, his other hand resting over his heart at they stared intensely at one another.

Albus was the first to power down his wand.

He swallowed thickly at the feeling of Gellerts hand against his own chest, clenched there, silently begging him to stay. He lowered his wand, looking up when he saw the fog beginning to clear.. An opening. He held his mismatched gaze for a long time, before he forced himself to walk away. Every step away from him, after seeing him in person, so close like this, for the first time in a long time- Felt like complete agony.

"Who will love you now, Dumbledore?."

Crack.

As he continued to walk away from him, with the combined feeling of the blood troth breaking at those words- It felt as if he had used the Cruciatius curse on him. His entire body burned, mind and heart as if he was on fire the second it broke on the steps of the palace. Jaw tightened at the feeling of holding back the absolute agony coursing through his veins, and those words made it feel as if he had been punched in the gut. Eyes staring up at him as he watched him stumble back, staring like a trapped animal at the rest of them. @magicblooms
