"I have never heard of such a child of Nyx, but, if what you say is correct I fear we must warn Camp Jupiter!" Athena said, frowning at the fact that she didn't know something, and possibly the fact that her daughter is possessed by some evil god, or whatever that guy was.

Percy also frowned. "But he only targeted those who are in Camp Half-blood, if he wanted an army, why wouldn't he also possess Camp Jupiter?" He asked. "Maybe he doesn't have enough mojo to do it? From what you told us it seems he doesn't really get out much and probably has never possessed so many people before!" Faith suggested. "We must prepare for a war!" Artemis said, and Ares instantly leaned forward, seeming more interested at the mention of a war. "I still don't get why?" Percy said frustrated.

"Why what?"

"Why would he attack us?" Percy continued. "Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money, or revenge! They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just wanna watch the world burn." Thalia stated, Percy and a couple other people looked at her strangely.

"Did you seriously just quote, Alfred from The Dark Knight?" Percy asked. The daughter of Zeus shrugged."What it felt like the right thing to say and I sort of wanted to quote that for a long time...just never had a reason to!" She said nonchalantly. "She might be onto something!" Pheobe said, stepping forward, fixing her bow, that was slung over her shoulder, in the process.

"How?" Lily asked just as Thalia exclaimed, "Really?". "Well maybe, like Faith, has said earlier, he was in the dark too long, he wants to be known."

"If he's a pile of black smoke! How do we know if its a he or a she?" Percy asked causing many of the being present in the throne room of Olympus face palm.

"Poseidon! if what Craig said is true and Craig is not your son, why did you claim him?" Demeter asked her brother.

"I didn't! At least I can't remember that!"
