Tyson, I said We're turning around! Going the wrong way? he asked. Always, I grumbled, but I steered the chariot towards the stands.

The Temple of Dendur, Zia said. Actually it was built by the Romans - When they occupied Egypt, Carter said, like this was delightful information. Augustus commissioned it. Yes, Zia said. Fascinating, I murmured. Would you two like to be left alone with a history textbook?

I found myself staring at her, which was stupid since I'd seen her a billion times. Still, she seemed so much more mature. It was kind of intimidating. I mean, sure, she'd always been cute, but she was starting to be seriously beautiful.

Eternity with Artemis? He heaved a big sigh. Thalia rolled her eyes. You satyrs. You're all in love with Artemis. Don't you get that she'll never love you back? But she's so…into nature, Grover swooned. You're nuts, said Thalia. Nuts and berries, Grover said dreamily. Yeah.

More minions!” he shouted. “Come to me!” That couldn’t be good. Another round of giant crocs and we’d be dead. Why don’t we get minions? I complained to Horus, but he didn’t answer.

Yeah, flattering. Percy raised Riptide. But actually I'm the son of Poseidon. I'm from Camp Half-Blood.

She pulled away. “I missed you, Percy.” Percy wanted to tell her the same thing, but it seemed too small a comment. While he had been on the Roman side, he’d kept himself alive almost solely by thinking of Annabeth. I missed you didn’t really cover that.

I see murky visions of other gods and rival magic. That REALLY didn't sound good. What do you mean? I asked. what OTHER GODS? I don't know, Sadie.
