Explanation

Blaze has multiple meanings: (1) a distinctive mark made on a tree (often to mark a trail), and (2) a large, burning fire. Fire (4) is a direct synonym for the second meaning. Ennui (boredom) and flood are completely unrelated to blaze. Tree marking is the less common meaning but still valid.
