Athena's Wisdom
Archie Kell is the son of two superheroes, grandson of a military super and great-grandson of the most powerful psychic of the 20th Century. The problems are that he's transgender and he's dying. He has only one family member left. His grandfather. His parents were part of the Aegis Court, America's premiere super team. So was his great-grandmother. After losing his parents at an early age, Archie wants nothing to do with supers, but fate may not let him make that decision.

Thank you
Thank you for asking Erin to republish this story, I hadn’t had a chance to read it, before. Dark? Yes, of course it’s dark! What community has better first-hand experience of what it is to be branded as “Dangerously Different”?
This is good stuff, well written. I can really feel the main character. Hoping you can tame your demons (a serious challenge, as I well know, having plenty of my own) and continue it.
You're welcome.
I lost my backup copies of these stories and that's why I asked Erin to make them available again. I didn't ask her to take them down because I didn't think anyone would notice. I'm glad you liked them though.
:(
My demons are as strong now as they were when I had my stories taken down before. I still haven't written a paragraph since.
~And so it goes...
