Walk With the Shadows [ Percy Jackson OC ]
"The Olympians have been called many things, but forgiving is not one of them." * - * - * [adventure, dark comedy, romance - book 1] Loyalty. What did it mean? As the Second Titan War raged across the United States, Half-Bloods began to pick sides. To some Half-Bloods, loyalty meant fighting for their godly parent. For some Half-Bloods it meant standing beside their friends. Sometimes those two definitions of loyalty clashed. They pulled to either side of the war. And sometimes, Half-Bloods picked the wrong side. When the war comes to a close, the traitor Luke Castellan repents of his actions long enough to kill Kronos and is given a funeral with honor. His final act granted him redemption. But what about the living? Who redeems them in the eyes of the gods? This is the story of three Half-Bloods who become the sacrificial lambs on the altar of repentance to the Olympians. Because the Olympians have been called many things, but forgiving is not one of them. * - * - * Starring: a son of Hermes, a daughter of Hecate, and a daughter of Tyche #1 in The Last Olympian, #1 in Mythology, #1 in Hermes, # in Tyche, #1 in Eurydice #1 in Orpheus Began: June 16, 2022 Ended: December 8, 2022 Final Word Count: 120,803 Primary Pairings: OFC/OMC Background Pairings: all canon couples Award Categories won: Overall winner x2, Best Writing Style, Best Pairing, Best Fight Scene * - * - * Set during the end of The Last Olympian and a bit beyond. * - * - * Warnings: mild psychological horror, psychosis, non gratuitous description of violence, canon accurate child soldiers, canon accurate depictions of the UnderworldComplete
