The dragon is the ultimate being a true apex predator in every regard. They can flatten forests with their wings and raze mountains in their fiery breath. Before a dragon none may stand. But one day from the dragon's fire was born a phoenix, a creature that with every death is re-birthed. Over many lifetimes the phoenix can grow with its accumulated wisdom and experiences. So this begs the question, Will the phoenix ever surpass the dragon? And if so, at what cost?
