Eee! Hi, guys! I'm so excited to share this story with y'all! It's an assignment that I wrote for my Spring 2022 Capstone Fiction Writing class. The idea is brand new and based on a prompt I read in a writing prompt book, The Genre Writer's Book of Writing Prompts and Story Ideas. Fantasy prompt 77: "A hunting expedition goes awry when its organizer reveals they are hunting a mythological beast."

        Evangeline Estiemiéres is a new character, but I already love her! She is my first Fantasy character with flames in her hair, literally. I thought of the idea when I was thinking about red-headed Fantasy characters. Red = fire. Here we are.

        Since this is a school assignment, the story will be short. And since it's the first draft, it may not be amazing, but I hope it's good enough to draw an audience toward this new Fantasy story. I may do more with it if I enter any Open Novella Contests, but we'll see.

        I hope you enjoy Evangeline's Flame just as much as I had fun writing it! Let's go, gladiators!

Please do NOT plagiarize this story! I don't want to have to turn on my bad side—just FYI.
