Aristoi Achaion [A the Song of Achilles fanfiction] 2
When I was born no one thought much of me. A daughter who happened to come along with a son, like a thorn who comes along with a rose, like rotten fruits who happen to come along with the ripe ones every year during the harvest. They at first thought that the fates not mentioning me in the prophecy concerning my brother was simply a sign of my unimportance. They even choose my name so it could fit his, not the other way around. What if the best of the Greeks were two people? What if Achilles had a twin sister just as skilled in warfare as him? Hello everyone! It's me @Erlina_LS, I unfortunately lost access to my original account so I will continue the story here. Some passages in the early chapters are not owned my me, they were written by Madeline Miller so credits to her. #9 on thesongofachilles on 12/6/2024 #4 on tsoa on 5/12/2025 #5 on thesongofachilles on 5/12/2025 #2 on Theiliad on 19/5/2025 #4 on greekmythologyretelling on 6/7/2025 #3 on greekmythologyretelling on 6/26/2025
Ineffable Love
When the prince of the underworld, son of Hades goes to a school on earth, and meets a boy who takes the princes breath away, but the boy isn't Just any boy. he's more than that, especially in the eyes of the prince. unedited I know am not a good write but i wrote this story because i got inspiration from Greek mythology and i felt like i should write it because i didn't want to keep it all to myself because it would stress me out about the story till i forgot about it or had something else on my mind, haha am weird that way, but in all honesty I love this story i wrote, and am happy with it.

Brief sexuality, characters are stated to have had sex, nothing shown on page. Characters kiss on page. Some crude dialogue regarding a character's sexuality.
