Genre: Fantasy, Mystery   Excerpt: "Let it be as you claim," the warlock said. "That there is 'not enough fire' in your country." And then he spoke the words of his spell, his curse. And from thenceforth, only candle flames could abide in our country.   What's the Word (that inspired the story)?Heck if I know.
