About TaylorAllen

I'm a sophomore at Riverside High School and live with my parents and younger brother. I discovered writing in fifth grade but really got into it around seventh or eighth, because no one had ever told me that it was something I could do as a profession. I'm panromantic, asexual, and genderfluid, which is a lovely mess of queerness. This site is wonderful, and I don't get on here as often as I should. Thank you for reading my work!


Interests

Writing (no duh); philosophy; STEM; working with children

Occupation

Writer; volunteer at Roper Mountain Science Center


Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Darth Plagueis the wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life... He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful... the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. It's ironic he could save others from death, but not himself.
