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.

Imprisoned

Arthur's heart was still beating hard in his chest when he landed on the turret where he'd left David. Vivid images of the Wall Barrier's evisceration capabilities lingered in his mind, almost petrifyingly so. He shifted back into his human form and collapsed on the ground, panting.

His core hurt a bunch… but that didn't bother him. Not after he'd prevented his nightmare from coming true.

"Arthur, what did you do?" David asked in a shaky tone.

The prince tiredly turned towards his temporary retainer and noticed a pale expression on his face. He didn't need to explain as vibrations started shaking the turret, coming from the stairs that led to it.

A multitude of armour-clad warriors poured onto the top of the turret, surrounding the prince with Fire Lances. Their faces were all hidden behind fire-resistant dark metal helmets.
