Phoenix of Calamity

In a world overrun by supernatural creatures and magic, phoenixes are known to be 'extinct' creatures of a distant past that were commonly referred to as 'Creatures of Calamity' and yet, contrary to that belief, they were also known to be creatures of sublime peace and indomitable mental fortitude. Our main character, Arthur is one of two princes of the Phoenixes. Born into a race that must remain hidden, lest they risk losing their lives to their mortal enemies, the Dragons. As life in the castle becomes more 'suffocating', the prince sets his sights on something... interesting. Barthlorn School of the Supernatural: An elite academy meant to train only the best to fight the Dark Forces of the Supernatural. Hunters, Dragons, Shifters, Warlocks, Healers, Magic and so much more are to be found within the walls of the great School. With so much to learn and so little to lose by doing so, the prince seeks adventure within the walls of the Academy. Like all oblivious main characters, nothing prepares him for the adventures he will find at great school. Nothing prepares him for the strength of the bonds he creates there... and with those bonds comes the frailty of his race's most sacred secret. Revealing the existence of his kind could quite literally mean death for all phoenixes. ............................. PS. The cover photo is not mine.

House Cleaning

Mornings at Mr Claw's Animal Sanctuary, otherwise known as a Breeding Farm, were usually colourful, fresh and filled with a rich melody(cacophony) of natural noises that had the capability to drive any human from Alcove mad.

The city of RuneTech was so meticulously developed, constructed and heavily integrated with technology and magic that the sound of wild animals was the equivalent of a grating noise in the cogs of a broken-down RuneTruck.

Of course, this was the opposite for Arthur.

Growing up in nature offered him the opposite spectrum in this deal. The prince arose in euphoric moods, relaxed and almost fully healed. At least, now he could stand on his own two feet without feeling his legs, arms, ribs or skull about to cave in due to the pressure exerted on the healing bones.

The sounds of the morning animal sounds almost made him forget the terrible loss he'd endured the day before.

It was a miracle his injuries were doing this well.
