House Of Fire

House of Fire is a significant trial within the initiation process for Mide, symbolizing a severe and perilous challenge that involves remaining from sunset to sunrise in a room filled with intense heat and danger. This zodiac-like test is designed to test the candidate's resilience, fortitude, and determination, serving as a critical step in their journey of initiation into Mide. The House of Fire serves as a powerful metaphor, illustrating the candidate’s ability to endure extreme conditions, thus laying a foundational understanding of what is required of them as members or initiates of the organization.
