The magic portal is in the top left. Smokey sits in the center on a chest and a chaotic altar, surrounded by 8 attendants. The circle is under siege by 8 fire elementals, 5 salamanders, 2 greater fire elementals and one random lizard (marked 1). There is a pit at each entrance to the circle, and there are two other random traps on the level.
The entire level is no-teleport, and has undiggable walls.

Entry
First time:
Waves of blistering heat ripple off of the lava-covered landscape that surrounds you. Off in the distance, you can see the craggy rocks of Fire-Brigade Base. Suddenly, the hairs on your neck stand on end as you detect a faint hint of evil moisture in the air.
Next time:
Once again, you near Fire-Brigade Base. You know that Smokey will be waiting.
If already rejected twice due to bad alignment:
Again, and you think possibly for the last time, you approach Fire-Brigade Base.
Quest guardians
If #chatting before the quest is complete:
"The battles here have been good -- our enemies' blood has boiled away!" "May your days always be warm!" "We have had trouble concentrating on our studies!" "The water elementals are fierce, but they boil away under our fire!" "Smokey is a strange one, but he has helped defend us."
If #chatting after the quest is complete:
"May your days always be warm!" "Since the defeat of the hoarde, all can concentrate fully on our studies!" "I'm taking my holidays in Gehennom this year - very warm there, supposedly" "Have you noticed how much stronger Smokey is since the Fire Chief Helmet was recovered?"

As you pick up the Fire Chief Helmet, you feel the power of it flowing through your hands. It seems to be in two or more places at once, even though you are holding it.
When killing the nemesis:
Eddie the Pyro falls to the ground, and utters a last curse at you. Then his body fades slowly, seemingly dispersing into the air around you. You slowly become aware that the overpowering aura of magic in the air has begun to fade.
