We have finally arrived on New Krypton. Kal-El or rather Clark is meeting several of the important inhabitants of this world. How will he navigate the first few days of living among his father's people? As always, comments and constructive thoughts are welcome. Last edited by Morgana; 09/28/24 07:45 PM.

You've gone to such depth and are giving so much more EVERYTHING to all aspects of what New Krypton would/could actually mean, providing a level of epicness the show wasn't able to deliver on. I especially love the idea he still has family, especially his grandmother. I look forward to seeing more of her especially. I also hope/suspect his experience as Superman will help him a great deal here on responding to crowds and the like. Can't wait for more!

But one thing I love about this story, and it shows particularly in this chapter, is your portrayal of New Krypton and it's effect on Clark. All his life he felt like a stranger in this world because of his powers, the physical differences caused by the yellow sun, while in up-bringing, emotional stuff, he was just like anyone else. Now, with the red sun, he's physically like everyone else, but still an alien because of where he was raised. It seems like Clark can't really belong anywhere. And it seems like the cultural differences are a stronger obstacle than his powers. It's never too dark to be cool.

Thank you! Budget constraints are always a problem. I wish we could have gone to NK in the show. That would have forced the writers to do something more than having Clark go through a terrible, heartbreaking farewell and then come right back to Earth. This story goes beyond what the show did. I am thrilled you like it. Raconteur was one of the few writers who took a crack at life on New Krypton and did an amazing job. If I get close to that all the years of work will be worth it. Quote I especially love the idea he still has family, especially his grandmother. Lady Polara is a character I wanted to write about since Cafe Americana. Now his Grandmother (and other family members) gets their due. Last edited by Morgana; 10/02/24 01:49 PM.

You’re bringing the New Kryptonians, their customs and culture to life and it’s fascinating. The show was only able to just give us a glimpse into their culture but I like how your expanding everything and giving us more. I’m definitely curious to see how everything plays out. I love this story and I can’t wait to get caught up. Thank you!
