MCU: Belief Keeps the City Airborne

The Chitauri left a Leviathan’s corpse hanging over New York. Somebody has started living inside it. The Roost is not a power in his body. It is a place — and it stays in the air partly because the people inside it believe it will. Marrow is currency, material and fuel at once, cut out of the carcass. Broods are the districts that open as it grows. Roostbound and Wingtrust measure who belongs and who still trusts him, and a city held up by belief comes down the same way it went up. Desmond Okoye was a Peckham-born scavenger before he woke here. He never levels up and never wins a fight that matters. His ground does the work. SHIELD is cataloguing Chitauri debris, rival crews are stripping the same corpse, and the NYPD cordon is not permanent. Someone will be sovereign of this thing. It may as well be him. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: MCU: Belief Keeps the City Airborne — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
