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.

Unexpected Request

The Solaris Wyrm's egg pulsed with a powerful wave of heat, warming its surroundings and bathing them in soft golden light.

The egg's surface was a net of black murky spots. Within the gaps of the black netting was the brilliant orange light akin to that of fire, pulsing softly with the rhythm of a heartbeat.

Arthur was at a loss for words after seeing the egg.

…Partly because it was such a sight to behold and because he simply didn't know what to do in this sort of situation.

'What do I say? Nice… egg?' the prince wondered.

Despite the majesty of the bird's egg, Arthur found no reason to show it to an outsider. If the Solaris Wyrms were getting a new addition to their family, then he was happy for them.

However, he found no need for them to show him the egg. Something wasn't adding up. The Solaris Wyrms weren't boastful creatures either. They protected their young as viciously as they would their lives.
