Erk
, no doubt a CoD and/or a BoD spoiler in here (?) so I have added a spoiler tag to the thread title...though I have to also admit that stumbling on this has got me VERY EXCITED considering I have harped on lately about how much the RWC will soon have to connect with happenings in Assassin's Quest!!! ![Smiling Smiling](https://theplenty.net/forums/images/smilies/smiling.gif)
Other than that, well met and welcome to thePlenty, A Rant Lord!![Slurp Slurp](https://theplenty.net/forums/images/smilies/slurp.gif)
You are right, A Rant Lord. Verity did make a fire in the Kelsingra map tower. He then used a burnt stick to assist with his map-making while making his way to the quarry.
In saying that, you are correct as well, joost, in that Fitz did also make a fire in the very same way, following Verity's suit...even using the remains of Verity's fire. Fitz didn't use it to create a writing tool though, instead using it to warm himself and to provide himself with some light, I think.
Fitz had noticed the remnants of a not-very-fresh-but-still-quite-recent fire and, once he understood that the broken table that the poeple were arguing over was actually a map, he realised that it must have been Verity who'd made it and used it and the burnt stick to create a map. He then went down and found the room that was walled with the pigeonholes that were filled with scrolls, and where he found some ink and vellum. It was from there that Fitz used his spit to help make ink and then he made the map that he would later compare to Kettricken's.
All fairly fresh for me after chatting in other threads about the scrolls, map table etc. Not sure on the chapter number in Assassin's Quest but, from memory, my guess is that its name is The City, (from where all of the other good stuff comes from that I want to come back and keep chatting about eg Blue Lake, before I read CoD and BoD!!). EDIT: Just checked and, yes, the chapter is 'The City' in AQ, and it is Chapter Twenty-Seven :END EDIT
This little tidbit makes me realise how little time I have left!!!![Surrender Surrender](https://theplenty.net/forums/images/smilies/surrender.gif)
