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.

Treacherous Terrain

When Arthur's friends were finally done with their breakfast, the group bid their upper class men a good day and proceeded towards the classroom for their first lesson of Basic Rune Theory.

Leo gravitated towards the prince and spared no time on greetings, "We were able to come up with coordinated attacks… well, mostly because of Tristan but we haven't had the time to share them with you yet."

"Cornelius might have hinted on that. We'll discuss this during Professor Heldsworth's lesson. I'm hoping we'll have plenty of time then," Arthur replied.

"Isn't that cutting it a bit too close?" Leo asked, "We didn't get to use the TDC yesterday and we haven't come up with at least some form of plan."

"You're right, Leo. But as of right now, there is nothing we can do about it and the panicking won't help. We'll have to work with what we've got," with that, Arthur put the matter to rest, finally spotting the door to their first lesson.
