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.

Flawed Technique

Arthur's eyes snapped open at the sudden sound of a deep breath, just in time to see the woman's chest rise high before settling back down.

Vice Captain Tanya's face was now flushed… with a few beads of sweat shimmering on her brow.

The colour of her skin had returned, purged of all pale signs of sickness… and the hollow sections of her face had filled out just slightly.

While she still looked ghastly weak and frail, this was an improvement.

And to call the subtle return of colour to her cheeks, stronger heartbeat, steadier breathing and beating flame core subtle was an understatement.

In truth, the Vice Captain had just taken a dramatic turn from death's door and looked well on her way to recovery.

Despite all this, however, she didn't wake up.

The nurse walked up to the bed with her eyes unblinking. Her gaze was glued to the recovering woman like something didn't fit the picture.
