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.

Screaming Senses

Arthur looked around a little more, trying to investigate the ominous feeling in his gut. Something was still wrong with this scene.

A tree growing taller than the rest, with no competition from the others… even amongst themselves, making the entire top of the forest appear like a professionally cut hedge.

The trees all grew in an odd form of peace and harmony that turned Arthur's stomach the wrong way.

As the prince struggled to find out what bothered him most about all this, he noticed a few sections of the greenery waving gently in the wind…

'Wind?' the prince wondered.

He went still for a bit… but felt no breeze. Maybe there was a breeze he felt when he was underneath the canopies, but it wasn't the same up here.

Above the trees, there was nothing. And even more peculiar was the fact that there were no birds around either.
