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.

Cherished Blessing

That morning, Arthur awoke with a clear mind. A few images of the past day flashed through his mind, making him slightly dizzy. So much had happened that it gave him vertigo.

A cool refreshing breeze blew in through the door and helped nurse the passing grogginess and slight vertigo. At the same time, it announced the presence of a passing intruder, "I'm starting to think I need to change my lock."

Gray, an orange-haired awakened phoenix and Arthur's brother, was standing by his usual spot on the balcony looking out to the forest that further connected to the Dark Woods in the North East.

The second prince sighed, 'At least he didn't find me screaming this time.'

Gray turned and gave his younger brother a tight-lipped smile, "You sleep deeply these days brother."
