Slowly.

I know this probably isn't the best time...

but there's something I have to ask you.

What is it?

It was something Luke said

about a prophecy...

how I'm mentioned in it.

Do you know anything about this?

Knowledge isn't always power, Percy.

Sometimes, it's a burden.

I know that.

But like you said,

I've been pretty unexceptional lately.

But like you said,

I've been pretty unexceptional lately.

It's got me wondering

if I'm prophecy-worthy.

They say that when the gods

wish to torture us...

they answer our prayers.

Necklace of Harmonia, Hercules' bow,

Golden Apple of Discord.

Three millennia of gods and demigods...

you'd think that someone would have

come up with a cure for Thalia's tree.

Persephone did come up with Miracle-Gro.

Maybe we can try that.

That's it.

Right here.

That is not gonna cure Thalia's tree

so much as get us all killed.

Me, in particular.

It's perfect. it's exactly what we need.

I'm taking this to Mr. D.

No.

I was hoping to spare you this onus

a little while longer, but go inside.

Upstairs, to the attic.

And when you come back down,

we'll talk some more.

Assuming you're still sane, that is.

I am the spirit of Delphi...

speaker of the prophecies

of Phoebus Apollo...

slayer of the mighty Python.

Approach, seeker, and ask.

I heard there was a prophecy about me.

Aye.

But before you learn the future,

know first the past.

Long ago, before our time...

before Olympus and the gods...

Titans ruled the world.

Led by Kronos...

a force so evil,

he devoured his own children.

But three of his sons escaped.

Zeus, Hades and Poseidon.

They destroyed Kronos...

and banished his remains

to the depths of Tartarus.

But Kronos is fated to rise again...

to exact his vengeance on Olympus,

and the world.

Only one half-blood child of the

three eldest gods can defeat him.

This child shall be our salvation...

or the cause of our destruction.

It all begins when two cousins

grapple for a fleece...

the son of the sea

and the lightning thief.

Luke.

And that half-blood

of the eldest gods...

shall reach 20 against all odds.

"And see the world in endless sleep...

"the evil soul,

cursed blade shall reap.

"A single choice shall end his days...

"Olympus to preserve or raze."

And that is "raze" with a

as in "destroy."

l asked.

Is there any chance,

any chance at all...

that I might not be the guy

in the prophecy?

The Oracle references

a half-blood of the eldest gods.

You are the only living half-blood heir

of Zeus, Hades or Poseidon.

The prophecy could refer only to you.

What if I destroy Olympus...

by not being good enough to save it?

That seems to be the question,

doesn't it?
