Tasks
Trained acolytes prepare "the substance" in a series of bare stone cells within the Guildhall of the Alchemists. Above each work cell is a room filled entirely with sand, with the floor rigged with an alleged spell to fall away and smother the blaze -and the acolyte - if the acolyte is careless and allows the wildfire to ignite.[1]
History
During Robert's Rebellion, the acolytes of the Alchemists' Guild were unaware of the wildfire plot. Hallyne was an acolyte in those days.[1]
Recent events
After a cache of wildfire from King Aerys' days is discovered in a storeroom beneath the Great Sept of Baelor, Wisdom Hallyne dispatches the most able acolytes with a cart filled with sand to transport the jars of wildfire to the Guildhall.[1]
