First Spark: Phoena's Quest Book 1

Phoena's Quest 1: First Spark

The quest begins with a first spark. It flares in isolation, untended and unknown. Too late, the darkness tries to smother it...

The Westernbrooke Academy for Young Noblemen is the only home Phoena has known. An orphaned servant without a past, lacking magical talent and protections, the teenager is often the target of student trickery. After years of torment, she longs for invisibility.

Lord Karilion, the Academy's best student, has beaten all challengers. The wealthy heir is also a champion swordsman. Viscount Baraapa, secure in second place, has no magic but his scientific mastery gives him an unexpected advantage. The foreigner, Lord Oramis, threatens the balance when he refuses to be tested. What is the Emberite Ambassador's son hiding?

The quest selects its champions: a servant girl, and three noblemen who think winning her loyalty is a game.

And there's a dragon in the back garden...
