I wish I had a place that was appropriate to keep my trained hunting phoenixes. Phoenixen. Phoenicies. Whatever.

O for a Mews of fire. . .

Phoenicians?

You had it right the first time.

I'm a bit ignorant about phoenixes. I thought fire was the way they died. If you want to keep them, wouldn't you want a fire-proof mews? How about an ice palace? Or maybe a cave behind a waterfall...

Yeah, but the pun doesn't work that way.

Get thee to a punnery!

Ouch.

Boo. Hiss. Applause. :D

That pun was for the birds.

Be careful when you're cramming them within those wooden casks, or they'll wind up flat unraised spirits.

Since there's only ever supposed to be one, the plural may not have been established.

I'd recommend sphinges (sphinxes) instead.

Yes, I'm aware that "phoenix", "pegasus", and "apocalypse" don't have plurals. But I needed it for the pun.
