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.

First Lesson

Professor Draul was a man with short flowing hair that fell to his ears in a messy mop of thin strands. His skin was always pale and he rarely smiled.

Arthur had guessed his age to be thirty but after thinking about it, he realised how looks could be deceiving. The Warlock was the Deputy Headmaster. That wasn't a simple position to fill so he shelved the question.

Aside from his strict gloomy attitude, Arthur had nothing else to think of the man except that he was a talented magic user, "You'll refer to me as Professor Draul.

I don't take kindly to 'clever' practical jokes or self-serving entertainment of any sort."

As the professor spoke, a piece of chalk floated in front of the board and began scribbling down everything that came from him.
