A creature of pure blue fire trickles across the cavern floor, burning and devouring all except the stone._ Though its behavior is similar to oozes that infest subterranean areas, the lambent witchfyre is composed of living blue flame, not protoplasm.

Some sages speculate that it was an early attempt by a wizard to infuse life on the Material Plane with elemental essence.
