the water spilled down into the pit, and even when percy shone a light, he couldn't see the bottom.

briares slumped against the wall. he scooped up water in a dozen hands and washed his face. "this pit goes straight to tartarus." he murmured. "i should jump in and save you trouble."

"don't say that." cherry told him, with a frown.

"you can come back to camp with us. you can help us prepare. you know more about fighting titans than anybody." annabeth told him.

"i have nothing to offer," briares said. "i have lost everything."

"you're still alive. that's more than enough." cherry sat beside him.
