Book content
An excerpt from the 14th chapter titled "Curious tricks of salamanders":
As you have learned from my previous books, salamanders spend the majority of their time near sources of heat and flames. You probably remember that these exotic lizards have an affinity for all kinds of magic - so it's self-evident that salamanders are soaked with fire essence. This fact lets them perform certain fiery tricks, which would make even the most experienced pyromancer jealous.
You may ask: can we truly learn anything from these mere beasts? We can indeed and I'm planning to demonstrate it..
Now let's get straight to business and try imitating one of their most beloved tricks - though I have to warn you, not everyone can perform it from the get go, you need a certain level of magical experience already.
Find a place where your exercises won't set anything on fire unless you want to follow in the footsteps of a renowned fire mage Frid Konnoken, who once decided that it was a good idea to cook dinner without getting up from his straw bed.
Draw in as much air as you can, then hold your breath for a dozen of seconds. Imagine the brightest, the hottest flames you've ever witnessed in your life. Feeling the heat rising up in your chest? Now exhale forcefully and spread your arms to guide the stream of flame.
If you followed my guidance to the letter, you should now be able to conjure an impressive fire wave!
