If you add a handful of hot charcoal or fire as an additional material component to a spell when you cast it, the spell gains the fire descriptor. This does not actually change the nature of the spell you cast; a cone of cold with this feat still deals fire damage, but since it also carries the firedescriptor, it can be augmented by a number of feats listed in this chapter, such as Fire Focus and FireMagic. If you add a handful of hot charcoal or fire as an additional material component to a spell when you cast it and that spell already has the cold descriptor, you increase the effective level of the spell being cast by +1. Adding this additional material component requires you to spend a move action immediately before the spell is cast to gather fresh hot charcoal or fire from the surrounding environment. This hot charcoal or fire can be magically created by a conjuration spell, but no other fire manifested by a spell will do. You may take no other action between gathering the hot charcoal or fire and casting the spell.
