Congrats on solving this symbol! The answer was "0451".

For those of you wondering how this answer could be arrived at, here's a quick explanation. :)

451 or 0451 is a common first code in "immersive sim" style videogames like the Bioshock and others thanks to having been the door code for Looking Glass Studios back in the day, though is often assumed to be a Fareinheight 451 reference, with that temperature being the autoignition temperature for paper, apparently. The clues each relate to one of those aspects. Hopefully fairly easy. In an ideal case I would love to see this as a first riddle that needs solving/the first on the list, to let that also be a hint to people who are really genre savvy since it's usually set as the first code in games that use it!

Good riddle, Avitra!

Thanks! <3 I was waiting very eagerly to see when it got answered. ^v^

Sorry it was trickier than intended, but well done either way! Good luck with the rest of the riddles!
You know, it is funny, I thought of fahrenheit 451 when I was thinking about scorching words, but it seemed off the mark so I dismissed it. Lol. Nice!
