I like how this shows a glimpse of a full universe with just a few words.
Also, did the messenger shoot an arrow with the scroll because the house is too hot to get close?

I can't tell if the notice was delivered with an arrow, or if the arrow was shot into the notice after the fact. On the one hand it seems impractical to send an unfolded piece of paper with a bow and arrow, but then why would someone shoot an arrow into the notice after it's already been sent?
It's mysteries like this that cause me to wake up in a cold sweat.

I like all the world-building possibilities this sets up. Given it's citing a problem with fire-related creatures, I don't know how wise it is to do so with a flammable material. The tenant may never get the notice, and service of the notice probably wouldn't pass a "reasonable person" standard, but I bet Cassius will clarify everything within 5 minutes. If the signee's name is a joke, I don't get it.
I love how you packed elegant expressiveness into a drawing of a simple scroll. This pic gets a lot of things done with deceptively simple-looking curves. I’ve ranked this as upper tier; thanks for creating it, Artist!
This gave me a really funny mental image right away. Imagine a landlord so lackadaisical that they don’t bother to ensure you’ve properly received your eviction notice. Imagine the tenant’s warning simply burned up without them knowing, and they returned home only to find a pile of smoldering ashes. The flavor text from Supreme Verdict came to mind.
I think this drawing could use more clarity from the outlines and shading. Especially where the scroll curls, I can’t really tell where the edge of the curl is. Maybe some brighter glowing cinders around the flames, as well as the smoldering bits, would help out this drawing.
This hits the prompt very well, though. Text is readable, and also hints at a curve to the scroll (which could have been gently shaded itself). Great job in leaving a lot of interesting information open to interpretation by the viewer, like the arrow, and the notice being actively burned.
