History

Expelled from the rest of the world

Centuries ago, a race of gigantic birds with the ability of producing fire through their feathers lived in harmony in a volcanic zone known as the "Devil's Cauldron." The area was so hot that any life form that entered it would die instantly. Contrary to this, phoenixes were able to survive perfectly in such hostile conditions, but their lifestyle was deemed as “chaotic” by others due to their destructive nature.

Phoenixes left a path of ashes at any place they flew through. As the Devil’s Cauldron was surrounded by a gigantic forest zone covered in snow, Pavlossus expelled them from such an area and forbid them from leaving that zone until they learned how to control their powers.
