Summer of Lore #26: The Phoenix Lights the Way

Surprisingly enough, Leria is not the only human royal to adopt the phoenix as part of their heraldry--many of her ancestors did as well.

This song tells the story of her father when he was young, how he brought back a mystical lamp said to be lit by the fires of a phoenix rising anew, and used it to thwart an evil duke's plot to take the throne for himself.

While it is often sung a capella (or using a drum to provide a beat), playing it with instruments is not unheard of. It is often sung on Phoenix day, which commemorates Selance's establishment as the human capital the the east continent
