Magic. Demons. Secrets.

The prosperity of Abira is guarded by its army of Mancers, people with the ability to control the elements and even the soul. Every year, on Inquisition Day, 13 year olds across the kingdom are tested to see if they are one of these Mancers.

Tess and Kiara, twin sisters, both produce Flames, evidence of Mancing ability. However, Kiara has a Black Flame, a colour that has everyone puzzled.

At Inverell Academy, the two learn how to use these powers. As Kiara grows stronger, so too do her enemies.

Emblems by dustythoughts

((Originally, Phoenix)) “Leave me alone!” Her form flickered in the dim light. The brothers shared a look. “All right,” one started. “Just let us say something first. We know you have powers; we can sense them on you. We can do this because we have powers too. We call it magic. If you want, we can show you.” “Prove it then.” ~^~^~^~^~ There was a monster inside of her – a dark thing that always tried to claw its way out, ripping her insides to shreds as it went. She found no relief from it, maybe because she had no happy memories to find solace in, nor anyone to find comfort in. And yet, Amber could be the catalyst to setting a series of events that had been prophesied centuries before, into motion, bringing together three more people – the embodiments of the Emblems – to bring magic back to life. But in this underlying world of Adepts, Demons and secrets within secrets, unlocking their potential will be harder than you think. ~^~^~^~^~^ So, this is my 2014 Nanowrimo story, which is basically an attempt to rewrite Phoenix, where it shall go through major changes in plot, characters as well as effects of my new-and-improved writing style. I hope you enjoy it, and please give constructive criticism! {Also, the cover is temporary, till I find someone who can help me with it :P}
