    Summary

    She'd smiled uncontrollably, laughing breathlessly at the gentle weight of the baby against her skin. He'd been wrapped in a fuzzy pink blanket, carefully nestled in her arms. Against her sweaty, still-heaving chest as tears streaked her cheeks.

    Then her skin grew unbearably warm, and she glanced down as the nurses left them alone for the first few moments together.

    "Oh no," She whispered, her eyes wide as Percy screamed, as if he knew then and there the weight of the name branding itself across his flesh. He cried until his tawny cheeks turned red, until the color of health pulsed through his pale, drying skin. Until Sally's heart broke, watching in horror as the gold settled over Percy's heaving chest in lethal, curving, serpentine cursive.

    Phoebus Apollo.

    The initial hope she'd had of a soulmate for her beloved baby was replaced with the cold truth. Any soul bound to burn for divinity was destined only to ash.

    Summary

    Her son’s soulmark, the one held closest to his heart, had a soft, golden glow peeking out from underneath the medical bandages. The glow seemed to become brighter, though not overpowering. Soft, comforting light. It reminded her of the sun, in a way.

    As her eyes adjusted, she found she couldn’t have been more right.

    Over her son’s heart spells the name Apollo, in gold cursive. The font shimmered, almost glittering as her son shifted on the bed. Every stroke of every letter seems purposeful, carefully branding her son. Out from behind the name is the image of a sun. A lyre is also depicted, and if Sally pays close enough attention, the strings seem to move slightly, as though someone is playing it.

    Summary

    Cedric Diggory’s death shatters Harry Potter and Privet Drive becomes a battleground he cannot survive. Driven to desperation, Harry attempts to end his own life, but the Prophecy and Death Seals react violently, ripping open a dragel inheritance too powerful to contain.

    Now feral and barely conscious, Harry inadvertently summons Maurice Elswood, his dragel mentor.

    What Maurice finds is worse than expected: a tormented child in halfling form, a dead man, two unconscious humans, and a Torvak hunting beacon hidden in the walls of a suburban home.

    Whisked to Nevarah for safety, Harry must recover from forced inheritance and unravel the truth, before those hunting him strike again.

    Summary

    Percy had agreed to spend the summer in Atlantis. His mother had been rather persuasive about it, and the growing tensions between him and Annabeth had convinced him that getting away from dry land and taking a step back would do him a world of good.

    He had simply forgotten that he had never spent more than two days in a row in Atlantis and that, as a result, he knew nothing about its customs and traditions.

    Not to mention that his father would probably see this as an opportunity to convince him to stay, this time for good.

    _______________________________________________________

    This story is an exercice, I'll post one chapter per day through the year !

    A few warnings before you read, I'm mainly basing this on the timeline of the books, not the series. Because of this, Percy is now legal, Annabeth is working on architectural plans for Olympus, and I intended to focus on the undersea family. There is absolutely no Annabeth bashing in this story !
