The city wasn't being ruined further by the flames anymore, but that didn't mean that there wasn't a need to rush.
Because of the fight that had erupted between the slaves and slave traders, countless corpses littered the streets.
These corpses could be the cause of disease outbreak, and as such, they needed to be gathered and burned thoroughly, not leaving even bones behind. Otherwise, they posed risk of infecting many people.
The former slaves were malnourished and badly beaten; it will not take a lot for them to die. Even the mildest pandemic could make the city soon uninhabitable, and Zaroth wasn't going to allow that!
It was sort of a blessing that he had recently managed to learn fire control. This was surely going to make disposing of the bodies easier.
