Hello everyone! I hope those of you reading the comic were desperately waiting for the McGuffin-like treasure that Pria seized in Episode 13 to be revealed. That's only one part of it as the time has come to reveal also a new faction! The story of Pria was building up to this very moment, where she would be taking the lead of her own syndicate - The Flame of Zhar!
This Episode 14 of the Flight of the Phoenix, neither belongs to Part II, nor to Part III - it's a stand-alone chapter, framing the birth of the new faction and the lore behind - a teaser so to say.
**
Background Info:
The namesake of the syndicate is the Flame of Zhar— a legendary Corusca gem, once formed in the deep atmospheric layers of the gas giant Zhar. It is extremely unlikely that these scarce, dense and heavy crystals would ever be ejected from their planet's inner layers into space, making it one of the rarest objects in the galaxy. Due to a certain type of cold fusion process inside, the gem emits an otherworldly glow.
**
Trivia:
The Corusca jewel - aka a dragon egg from Lego Elves - is filled with transparent yellow, red and orange round 1x1 bricks, lighted with a tiny LED wire, making it glow from within.
The egg is quite big and I would have liked it smaller, but it is a good tradeoff for enabling that glimmering look.

Acknowledgements:
I have to say many thanks to the Pirate Collective, explicitely their interim leader Chris, for welcoming me so friendly a while ago and enabling me to go for a new faction. That holds too for all other faction leaders and GMs who give me an opportunity and I hope we will have even more fun (and maybe a little more drama? 😉 ) with a new gang in town.
