Ember(EM-ber)

Quick Detail: Ember is a small, glowing fragment of coal or wood that remains after a fire begins to fade.

Definition: An ember is a small pocket of heat that remains after flames have died down, glowing softly beneath ash or charred wood. Though quiet and easily overlooked, embers still hold warmth and the potential to spark new flame if stirred. The word carries a sense of lingering heat and the final trace of fire before it cools into darkness.
