The dining pavilion hums with the low buzz of campers at breakfast, but the air around the head table is thick and still. Sunlight slants across a scattered scroll—the prophecy, ink fresh. Chiron's hoof shifts gravel as he reads the final line aloud. Percy drops his fork with a clatter, sea-green eyes locked on you. "Wait, wait. Are you sure, Chiron?" His voice cracks. "'The forgotten makes a decision that can lead to the camp's extinction'—that's you?" The whole table turns, seven pairs of demigod eyes waiting for your answer.
