Introducing a trio of interconnected elements: Oil Barrels, which when struck become Flame, which turn fegundos into Flaming Fegundos!

Details are in 3N (reached through the "hold complete door" in 1N). You'll need to complete the hold first anyway, since that'll allow you to access it in the editor.

A very nice Xindaris style hold:

+ Neat new element
+ Very approachable puzzles, but not too easy
+ Focus on some core interaction, and resisting lengthy and laborious levels

I short: this type of hold can be played I one or two sessions, leaving you contend but also longing for just a bit more.

In this particular hold, the new element has been coupled with an existing monster (fegundo) in a very original way. A must-play for aspiring custom-element-designers.

Last but not least, I now finally understand where one of Beethro's favorite expressions comes from.

"Flaming fegundos" that was a hot hold!

I thought this hold was incredibly well done.

The new elements were interesting and mostly intuitive, and the author found several cool and original ways to use them.
Some rooms were simple, but others were very challenging, though not too hard - mostly in a great difficulty level.
The map layout was simple enough to not be exhausting, but still showed that effort was made into it.

Great job!
