I'd be surprised if this made it to an actual task. I made it to be a bit snarky and sarcastic since everyone on SF0 burns things with meaning all the time. I may Level 0 it and try using some sort of acid, though.

You could always complete Funeral of Scyld Scefing; it's not like things go anywhere mysterious when you set them on fire.

like funerals, where you put them on a boat and set it on fire.

Read your Beowulf; fire is optional, and in fact Scyld Scefing didn't get any. +1

At his foreshaped hour
Scyld departed
Gray-haired, vigorous
Into God's keeping
Care-stricken comrades
Carried his body
To the edge of the sea
Honoring the wish
He had made when still
Master of his speech
He who had so long
Held the kingdom.
His ring-beaked ship
Was ready to sail
Ice-clad, impatient
Eager for the voyage.
They laid their beloved
Lord in its hold
Rested their ring-giver
In its roomy hull
Near the heel of the mast.
They heaped beside him
Fabulous wealth
From far-off lands.
I have never heard
Of such magnificent things:
Mail-coats and swords
And mask-helmets
And bright war-shields.
On his breast lay many
Dazzling jewels
Destined to travel
To the far reaches
Of the flood's domain.
His man equipped him
With much more treasure
Than the warriors
Who had once sent him
Wandering the wastes
Of the wide ocean
Alone and friendless
A little child.
Finally the Danes
Affixed a golden
Standard above him
Let the stream have him
The sea-surge take him.
Their souls were troubled
Numb with mourning.
No man on earth
Not even the wisest
Can ever know
Or say for certain
Who received that cargo.

Alright then. Yule is a time for doing away with the last year and I have a few very destroyable mementos around. I will, in fine C.L.O.W.N.S. tradition, accept this pseudo-challenge and do all of these things. Before the end of Yule. Starting right now.

Over the course of Yule I destroyed four things in four very different ways. I abstained from the obvious combustion and still completed the four tasks that were set before me. Below are my results

Yes!
