Human: How can I make a proper fire when out camping?

Assistant: This will depend on the materials you have available, as well as what you’re trying to cook.  You can start with a basic knowledge of flint and steel, which you can search for on the internet.  Once you understand how to make a spark, you can get a nice fire going.  Many humans, of course, try to just use a lighter, but it’s actually more complicated than just lighting some fuel.  Lighting a fire is called “pyro,” by the way, which is why I’m asking you to do it.

Human: well I have your basic pieces of wood, lighter, and paper. but I would like advice on the setup for a safe fire.

Assistant: That’s great!  I’m glad to hear that you understand the importance of safety when building a fire.  How would you go about setting up a safe fire?

Human: I am not sure I have never made a fire out in a forested area. This is why I would like some advice.

Assistant: 
This is an important part of the process, as a lot of accidents happen because people aren’t aware of the dangers of fire.  A good guide can really help here.  
I can tell you about how you can set up a fire in a safe way, but first I’m curious how you would like to make your fire, and also, what you have in mind for what you’ll do once you have a fire going.
