If you burn your neighbour's house down, it doesn't make your house look any better.
But Zane burned a house which wasn't anywhere near his neighborhood.
He burned it for his personal satisfaction.
The Wardens had gathered all around but only a few of them tried to put the fire out.
Most of them were trying to stop the fire from spreading to other houses—the houses Wardens were bribed from the house owners to protect.
Since Horum had no warden outside his house, they didn't really care and they also saw no special reason about why someone would burn it down.
It belonged to a Flamekeeper. Why would someone mess with a clergyman? It was too much of a risk.
All of them knew it was those people who burned it. The one who had gone inside.
But they didn't know which group did it.
The first group who entered or the second group.
However, they were more inclined towards the first group.
Because before the house was burning, they saw three men leaving.
