P
Proud Phoenix
A phoenix’s song
struck fear into the enemy’s heart. The fiery bird soared over the battlefield.
King Brum had never seen a phoenix in flight like this, but certainly it was a
fortuitous event.
An enemy arrow
flung into the blue sky.
“Stop that
archer!” King Brum’s commanding voice lifted through the clashing of swords and
even rivaled the creature’s own melody.
The proud
phoenix barely dodged the arrow. Some feathers drifted to the ground, and the
bird dove toward the man who had tried to kill a phoenix. Within a few grains
of sand, a screech rose and the man’s blood splattered before the phoenix
disappeared in flames.
Now if you want to learn more about
authors, I’m featuring up to three per day on my blog Surrounded by Books Reviews.
