We used burned offerings for many of our gods as well and it wasn't just food...

[Diarmuid pauses and chuckles.]

Though, somehow I don't think that liquor is a good offering for one so young.

[He thinks on this a moment and then nods. While he is no expert in magic of any kind, he has enough friends who know magic that he is starting to pick up on a few things.]

It should, though, it depends on the exact way the anti-fire magic is cast, I believe. Some of them never stopped working because they were based on water or ice magic to begin with. I am sure Hermione will know the best way to handle it. She is a very talented young lady and if she can't figure it out, there is always her friend, Remus, who works at the White Citadel. He knows quite a lot about magic too.

[Between them, Diarmuid is positive they can come up with something to protect the little fire god's toys.]

Ashy paw prints...

[He mutters this to himself a moment before continuing.]

You know, gods usually have symbols to represent them and that would be a really cute one for him...

[And might also lead his enemies to underestimate him once he is older and stronger.]
