Ashes Ascending
Phoenix Rising: A Disc Golf Saga of Elemental Rebirth
In a world where ancient prophecies foretell the rise of the legendary Phoenix, two factions clash in a battle for the ages on the hallowed grounds of Dow James Disc Golf Course.
The wise Aria Emberheart leads the Ashen Pilgrims, believers in the Phoenix's power of rebirth and renewal. But the enigmatic Zephyr Shadowcloak and the shadowy Obsidian Sentinels stand in their way, determined to prevent the fiery resurrection at all costs.
Eight sacred sites. Four elemental trials. One destiny.
From the ashes of the Phoenix's pyre, a quest begins. Flaming baskets ignite the sky as players brave blistering putting challenges. Howling winds carry discs across shimmering lakes, testing the mettle of even the most skilled throwers. Mysterious portals beckon from within the depths of cavernous tunnels.
In the ashes of defeat, the embers of hope still glow.
Alliances will be forged and rivalries inflamed as the race to gather powerful artifacts consumes all. Tensions rise with each hole conquered, each secret unlocked. An ancient tablet, a whispering pendant, a smoldering feather - clues to a fiery reckoning.
When the inferno beckons, who will heed the call?
Phoenix Rising. This summer, witness the disc golf saga that will reshape the world. Choose your side...before it's too late.
Fly. Fight. Burn bright.
