Not like the stuff burns real well anyway unless it's kindling dry. The cool thing is that bramble/junk tree thickets like these recover very quickly from fire - they're like weeds. And another plus is that burned brambles lose little of their defensive value - they usually end up scortched with their leaves burned off, but the vines themselves stay relatively intact. That's one thing you learn living on acreage on the west coast... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> I had a friend who had an entire field, just as I described, and we both thought that this field would stop anything short of a tank or some heavy farm machinery designed to remove it...  Aslo, be careful when making historical comparions to medieval peasants - D&D has many, many different challenges our historical counterparts never had to consider. We'd have a much different outlook on societies in a magical and monster-infested world... Cheers!</blockquote>
