Midas was named after Greece's King of Gold who famed for his touch of fortune. In Midas' case, he has good luck streaks that have the ability to last for months on end. Unfortunately, his luck catches up to him every once in a while in the worst way possible. Eventually, he finds himself landed in the hospital after a lucky streak of nearly a year. He's dealt with worse before, but this time around, he meets someone different.
Maddy prefers to go by Meddy because her idol is none other than the gorgon Medusa herself. She's in the hospital because of a fatal accident that marred her body and a terminal illness that's slowly counting down her days. Face filled with scars and completely blind, the last thing Meddy ever expected was to become friends with someone as charming and lucky as Midas.
But like the days of old, some things were never meant to be. As a King with a tragic touch and a creature that strikes the worst fear in others, happiness is not a term they're both familiar with. Frozen in stone and frozen in gold, fate would grant neither of them victory.
