Koohii stories:

1) [Christine_Tham] 27-7-2007(276): SHINING FLAMES illuminate!

2) [atomiton] 16-9-2007(91): The sun was seduced to give us fire, by which we illuminate the night.

3) [rotifera] 16-11-2007(43): Just shining is not enough to illuminate. The shiny thing needs to be even brighter. Maybe set it on fire?

4) [wzafran] 2-6-2007(27): You find yourself trapped in an unfamiliar cavern, engulfed in darkness. You wield a Rod of Light with your right hand; its tip is shining, but faintly. Thence, with your other hand, you cast a spell and set fire to the rod. And this rod, which shines with much greater fervour than before, is what would illuminate a path before you, that you then follow until you reach the outer caverns.

5) [Shibo] 28-3-2008(23): The man who shines shoes in the day stands alone at night in the cold, dark city. He keeps himself warm in front of a burning trash barrel, his face illuminated by the flames.
