Lost Not Forgotten Novel: Midas Story

Introduction

My name is Midas. I was born with a curse. Everything I touch turns to gold. It's becoming a real problem for me. I have been practicing controlling my abilities, but with anxiety i still can't seem to get things right. My curse only grows stronger over time, which makes it even more difficult to control it. Because of this, i can't really get contact with the outside world. All i have is my daughter, Skye. But really, i have no one else by my side in my life of isolation.

Supposedly I had no parents ever in my life, or so the gods told me. They have basically been the ones that guided me through life, and pretty much took care of me. Soon enough I started an Agency and it grew little by little to what it is today on the Battle Royale island. I hired a few agents, but they don't truly know who I truly am of course. The gods make sure of everything and make sure things run without anyone getting suspicious. They pretty much handle a lot of things.

The only person other than the gods that knew who I was was, my wife of course. She was the love of my life, and really changed things for me. My stress went down by a lot and I even managed to control my abilities way more when she was there. She passed away the day Skye was born though. That made me really sad. I was a single father having a hard time controlling my abilities all over again, my mental issues to take care of, and things were difficult. Ever since then, really it's just been Skye and I. We knew no one else, and no one else knew us. This is basically how I have lived my life. Just an unknown, superhuman being in the distance that hopes they won't be the one that destroys the world one day.
