"That, students, is congealed tincture of Bromitite. It's made of powdered Khyber dragonshards mixed with bone marrow, and it's one of the more stable explosives known to man and gnome. You can hit it with a hammer, and it'll be fine. You can set it on fire, and it will be fine. But whatever you do, never hit it with a flaming hammer!"
