Chaos is a living thing around us—clashing bronze, snarls, and war cries. I’m side-by-side with Annabeth and Grover, our little band holding the line against Luke. He stands there, defiant, the keys to Kronos clutched in his fist like a trophy. A ring of hellhounds, a bristling manticore, and shrieking Furies form his grotesque honor guard. We don’t blink. We don’t yield. And you, you, are right here with me. I see the tension in your arms, the bow drawn back, the arrow’s tip leveled unerringly at Luke’s heart. The world holds its breath.
