For lovers of grand tales filled with courage and the eternal battle between light and darkness, a new adventure is on the horizon. “The Fall of Magic,” the first book in the series “The Master’s Core,” is set to sweep readers into the richly woven world of Auro. This is a realm still healing from the scars of a devastating war, now facing the threat of an age of darkness.
At the heart of the story is Volir, a solitary elf with a mysterious past. He trains with the Knights of the Phoenix, legendary warriors who stand against the encroaching shadows. Volir’s deepest wish is simple: to be chosen by a phoenix and live out his days in peaceful solitude, far from the memories that haunt him. But destiny has other plans. A corrupted prince, leading a sinister army, is intent on destroying Valenthreas—the sacred elven city and beacon of hope. Volir must decide whether to embrace the light within him and stand against this looming evil.

Meet the Author: Phoenix Rokni’s Journey from Soldier to Storyteller
Behind this epic tale is Phoenix Rokni, a new author with a background as diverse as the world he’s created. Phoenix began his professional journey as a soldier, serving with honor before transitioning into the field of psychotherapy. With a master’s degree in counseling psychology, he spent years running a private practice, helping others navigate their personal challenges.
Despite his success, Phoenix felt the persistent call of a passion he’d nurtured for over twenty years—the creation of a fantasy world rich with history, magic, and complex characters. Recognizing that it was time to pursue this dream fully, he decided to hang up his counselor’s hat and dedicate himself to writing.
“The Fall of Magic” is the culmination of Phoenix’s lifelong love of storytelling. His experiences as a soldier and a psychotherapist have undoubtedly enriched his writing, allowing him to infuse his characters with depth and authenticity. It’s not just about telling a story; it’s about exploring the themes of sacrifice, courage, and the choices that define us.
A Call to Community: Be Part of “The Master’s Core” Saga
What sets this project apart is Phoenix’s desire to build a community around “The Master’s Core.” He believes that a story truly comes alive through its readers. By choosing Kickstarter as the platform for the book’s launch, he’s inviting readers to be part of the journey from the very beginning.
This is more than a transaction; it’s an opportunity to connect with fellow fantasy enthusiasts, share thoughts and theories, and watch as the world of Auro grows and evolves. Phoenix is eager to engage with readers, hear their insights, and perhaps even let their enthusiasm shape the future of the series.

We had the privilege of interviewing the author. Here are excerpts from the interview:
Hi, Please introduce yourself and tell us what you do.
My name is Phoenix Rokni. I’m a new author with a background as a soldier and a psychotherapist. After receiving an honorable discharge, I earned a master’s degree in counseling psychology and spent many years helping others through my private practice. Eventually, I reached a point where I knew it was time to hang up my counselor hat and pursue my greatest passion: bringing to life the fantasy world I had been creating for over twenty years. Everything I do now is in support of that dream.
Please tell us about your book.
The Fall of Magic is the first book in a potentially expansive series that explores The Master’s Core, a sweeping epic of courage, sacrifice, and the timeless struggle between light and darkness. In this story, we meet Volir, a lone elf with a hidden past, who trains with the Knights of the Phoenix. His world bears deep scars from a bygone age and now faces a grave threat. A prince, consumed by corruption, is leading his sinister army across the land, leaving destruction in their wake. As everything he holds dear is threatened, Volir must make a choice—one that will echo throughout history and shape the fate of all.
Please tell us about your journey.
I had never written a book before this one, so I spent about a year learning the craft and organizing my thoughts. I wanted to tell a strong story without making too many of the big mistakes many first-time authors make. I hired a stellar editor and cover artist and put a lot of effort into creating something memorable.
What are the strategies that helped you become successful in your journey?
Time, patience, and perseverance. I dedicated most of my free time—and sometimes found time I didn’t think I had—to refine this novel until the manuscript truly felt right. I’m a bit of a perfectionist, and I couldn’t stop working until the characters, creatures, places, and magic all felt just right. I had a lot of support from those around me, who helped keep me grounded when I spent too much time immersed in the world I was creating. It was invaluable to have people who could ensure I kept my feet on the ground.
Any message for our readers
This Kickstarter campaign offers readers a chance to join this journey from the very beginning, with an exclusive version of the book that will never be available again. Called “The Fade” Black Edition, this special edition is my way of thanking those who support my work as an author. If you’re looking for a fantasy story that dares to be unique—something a bit unlike anything else out there—then this might be the story for you. While I honor the great stories and fantastical worlds that have come before mine, I’m also doing something quite different here, which will unfold over the course of the series. So, if you’re eager for an adventure with compelling characters and high stakes, this might just be the journey for you, one we can embark on together for many years to come.
Thank you so much, Phoenix, for giving us your precious time! We wish you all the best for your journey ahead!
