Investigations are taking place at the Castle into the cause of the blaze.

I'm going to guess it was a burning cannonball.

Was it a “hot shot”?
It was sometimes done where a red hot cannonball
was fired to start a conflagration.

Was a Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner involved?

Did the cannonball have an ACME label on it?
