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.

Training a Mana Core

Once Arthur reached his limit, a test that the professor had intended to realise what this limit was, the recoil had been, unexpectedly, destructive in nature.

For a second, the prince lost all control of his consciousness, mind and muscles, surrendering the incessant thirst for mana that raked his core.

The pressure from his core forced in a large wave of mana, thrice more severe than the spectacle that had occurred in the infirmary.

A small but rather chaotic gale of wind swirled around the prince before exploding outward with a loud boom.

The implosion in the chilly den of the IceWing Sanctum threw Arthur and the professor back several paces, snuffing out the flames of the campfire and drowning the cave in a veil of darkness.

Only a sliver of light filtered in from the gap above the exit peeping into the Headmaster's office.
