Pyromancy

Pyromancy (from Greek 'pyros', fire, and 'manteia', divination) is the art of divination by means of fire.

History of pyromancy
Due to the importance of fire in society from the earliest of times, it is quite likely that pyromancy was one of the earlier forms of divination. It is said that in Greek society, virgins at the Temple of Athena in Athens regularly practiced pyromancy. It is also possible that followers of Hephaestus, the Greek god of fire and the forge, practiced pyromancy.

Types of pyromancy
The most basic form of pyromancy is that in which the diviner observes flames, from a sacrificial fire, a candle, or another source of flame, and interprets the shapes that he or she sees within them. There are several variations on pyromancy, however, some of which are as follows:

Alomancy, divination by salt, one type of which involves casting salt into a fire
Botanomancy, divination by burning plants
Capnomancy, divination by smoke
Daphnomancy (also, Empyromancy), divination by burning laurel leaves
Causinomancy, divination by burning (non-specific as to the object burned)
Sideromancy, divination by burning straw

Pyromancers in fiction
This section is a stub. You can help by adding to it.
Super Mario, the main character of the Nintendo video game series of the same name, gains pyromancing abilities when he touches a Fire Flower (he is thereafter able to shoot bouncing balls of fire until he incurs damage from an enemy).
Scorpion of the Mortal Kombat series appears to have certain pyromancing skills, which include causing his opponent to spontaneously combust and killing his opponent by spewing fire onto his/her body (in a memorable Fatality commonly known as "Toasty!" wink . Other characters in the series, including Liu Kang and Shang Tsung, have also displayed limited talent in pyromancy. Another character, Smoke, is widely recognized for his capnomancing powers.

Lyrics that I feel personify her.

For Those Who Died

Cradle of Filth -Midian

[Sabbat's "History Of A Time To Come" (1987) cover.]

Our tongues they could not silence with their malicious lies,
Their unforgotten violence, remember those who died.

And as my flesh is put to fire I hear their voices still,
Their unjust accusations demanding I am killed.

"We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee,
Who stand accused and have refused the Church's clemency,
Your wicked acts are endless through the crimes we cannot name,
Innocent or guilty proved, we'll burn you just the same."

Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre.
Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre.

This self-righteous inquisition is a plague upon our land,
As false as the confessions they force from shattered hands.

"We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee,
Who stand accused and have refused the Church's clemency,
Your wicked acts are endless through the crimes we cannot name,
Innocent or guilty proved, we'll burn you just the same."

Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre.
Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre.

Abused my broken body is cleansed by righteous flame,
Their God a 'God of Mercy' yet in whose name I slain.

My innocence the victim of their superstitious fears,
Religious persecution for the past three hundred years.
Preaching peace and mercy 'neath the shadow of the knife,
A papal reign of terror, slaughter in the name of Christ.

And as my flesh is put to fire I hear their voices still,
Their unjust accusations demanding I am killed.

"We shall show no mercy to heathen such as thee,
Who stand accused and have refused the Church's clemency,
Your wicked acts are endless through the crimes we cannot name,
Innocent or guilty proved, we'll burn you just the same."

Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre.
Burning, into the fire.
Burning, a funeral pyre
