Look at the rest of the campaign, ST.
The red sail... the red kite... the red umbrella...
Freezing cold, windy locations...

Warmer? You can do it! ;)

well i think thats the problem, the umbrella, kite and sail seem to be unable to fight the weather, and they all seem to be held by humans, so why use them to indicate flame that does not go out? thats the connection that i dont undestand.

Horrid campaign. Doesn't look remotely like flame. Forced like the rest of the campaign.
