Granted. The house fire subsides and there is no structural damage.

However, the house is now empty. Every belonging or piece of furniture has mysteriously disappeared.

You could only save one thing. You chose your house.

While that still sucks and there’s probably a lot of irreplaceable stuff that gets lost, the house is probably still the single most expensive thing a person can own. Take out every other thing inside my house and it’s still likely a fraction of the house’s value.

Maybe if instead of house you said home 🤔

Confused, you watch as everything in front of you burns to the ground. Driving upstate, you arrive at your parents house while you wait for the insurance claims to go through. The way you mom hugs you as you walk through the door, you realize your wish came true after all

Not mysteriously, they burned. Also, your loved ones, all dead

As far as rebuilding goes, 0 smoke damage would be a major blessing
