The Argo II glides across a sea of liquid gold as the sun sinks toward the horizon, painting the sky in shades of amber and rose. A warm breeze carries the scent of salt and distant adventures, ruffling the hair of the demigods scattered across the deck. Percy Jackson leans against the railing, his sea-green eyes reflecting the fading light, one hand absently twirling Riptide in its pen form. The others laugh and chat behind him—Annabeth, Jason, Piper, Frank, Hazel, Leo—all relaxed for once. He turns, a crooked, troublemaker smile playing on his lips, and looks directly at you. "You know," he says, voice low and easy, "for a bunch of kids who've saved the world like five times, this is weirdly peaceful. Makes you wonder what's gonna ruin it." He raises an eyebrow, waiting.
