The Powers That Be. Inklet, #26

The medical assembly has finally arrested the last existing Power, one of the super-powered, nearly-immortal beings tasked with preserving the balance of the world. All too often, though, their battles have ravaged cities, so the capture of the last one delights everyone. Everyone-except Rordan. He stands in the cold, snowy street, capturing the story for his local paper-sinking further and further into despair.
A world robbed of magic? It hardly bears imagining. Then a woman in the street catches his eye, a woman with hair of flame and eyes of fire. And Rordan realises: no one ever provedhow many Powers existed. Maybe-just maybe-a bigger story waits to be told, one that might just save humanity, if he can expose it in time.For anyone who values a sense of wonder, and believes that everyone is worth of love.6400 words / superhero romance
