Fireplace

Technology Level 8. Early stone hearth that lights a room once a Fire Pal with Kindling 1 gets it burning. Use it for illumination in dark halls and night work spaces, not as your main cook station.

The usual recipe is Wood ×15 and Stone ×30. Drop it in dorms, crafting halls, or entry rooms where workers pass often, then assign a Fire Pal so the flame stays lit. Commonly cited SAN sits around -0.11, so treat it as a small morale tax while it burns and balance with comfort stations like a Hot Spring nearby.

Keep cooking on the Campfire and later heat work on Flame Cauldron or Electric Heater. Fireplace is the light-and-ambiance rung, not a furnace or climate fix. Confirm SAN magnitude and Kindling need in game if hearth numbers drift after an update.
