Summary

Instead of a somewhat happy childhood with his mother, Percy is orphaned and on the streets by the age of ten. Found and taken in by the most unlikely of gods, Percy is raised to be the greatest demigod to ever live. His past has left him bitter towards all but a few. Will he still be ready to accept his destiny?

Reactions and Reviews

The Ancient Greeks were very fatalistic in their ideals of destiny and prophecy. The concept of AU would be easily accepted within many Greek Tragedies, especially when considering whether a horrible twist in one’s childhood could prevent the fulfilment of one’s destiny. In this story, Percy is orphaned and abandoned on the streets by the age of 10. Despite his bitter view on life, he is still ‘touched by the gods’.
