NICO IS FURIOUS. When he is told to go on a trip with Will Solace, find two dangerous, powerful demigods and save the world from being destroyed by it's very creator, he is not exactly leaping with joy. But he doesn't have a choice now does he? WILL IS CONFUSED. He has a missing brother? He has to travel with Nico? All Will wants is everyone to be safe. Poor, poor Will. Too bad his wish may not come true. RYDER IS HAPPY. He gets to be with the person he loves. Sure, she's cursed, hated by 10 out of 12 Olympians and hates the gods right back, but she's sweet as long as she likes you. You gotta cut her some slack. She will always be loved by him. Perhaps that might change soon though. QUINN IS LIVID. She is cursed. She is abandoned. She is hated and unwanted. A monster. All she wants is love. Her mother. Her heritage was never her fault. Yet she is still an untamable monster. Such a shame that her friends and lover could one day be the ones hunting her down.
