When the Family dog emerges into the house after the house recognizes its voice, he was hungry and angry; "The dog frothed at the mouth, lying at the door, sniffing, its eyes turned to fire." This is an example of hyperbole because there is exaggeration; the dogs eyes weren't actually on fire, but they probably looked angry or intense.
"I'm starving"
A gust of wind pushes a tree branch through the kitchen window, knocking down a cleaning liquid into the stove, and causes the fire to start. " The house tried to save itself" This is an example of personification; the house is portrayed as a living entity responding to the fire in a human like manner to "protect itself".
"The fire must be put out this instant."
"Help, help! Fire! Run, run!"
"Today is August 5th, 2026, today is August 5th, 2026, today is..."
Amidst the wreckage and smoke, only a solitary wall stood tall. Within this wall, a voice echoed, repeating the same words with a sublime disregard for the state of the house Nature has now prevailed over tech, and it will continue flourishing regardless of the condition of humans or our creations.
