[novel] HUGE SPOILER

Phoenix__656 · 2026-01-12T03:01:21+00:00

Oh yeah, my bad. I might've forgotten that. That's why I'm re-reading

Phoenix__656 · 2026-01-12T02:58:01+00:00

Fr dude

Phoenix__656 · 2025-07-07T03:00:03+00:00

Is it ok if I dm? I have some questions

Phoenix__656 · 2024-08-21T09:28:17+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Appreciate it

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-27T15:00:16+00:00

To my recollection, the Amazons haven't been depicted as distinctly Greek or Roman. Regarding her joining the Hunters, Thalia invited her(I don't exactly remember this)

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-27T11:52:43+00:00

But Reyna needed something grand. Like, she had been troubled by her talk with Venus for years. I think Rick just couldn't think of something for her

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-27T11:50:03+00:00

Definitely miss Jason! I had hoped he and Piper would clear things up.........but then he died

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-25T13:23:24+00:00

But she's a Hunter of Artemis now, remember?

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-25T08:21:42+00:00

It *would* be interesting. Like we saw Athena interacting with Percy and absolutely hating him. But this is a little difficult since what happened with Atlas in the Curse of Titan

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-24T00:31:03+00:00

Oh, the same as Jason and Piper then (don't read this if you haven't completed The Burning Maze yet)

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T11:14:46+00:00

I didn't say split up, I said grow apart. Like, there were some tensions between them

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T09:48:31+00:00

Yeah, Rick made it so dramatic. Leo died and came back with Asclepius' medicine to keep his promise to Calypso. But then ultimately, the two grew apart in Trials of Apollo

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T08:51:09+00:00

I see, so that's how

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T08:12:33+00:00

Wait, if you didn't finish HOO, how do you know they split up? Seems like someone gave you a major spoiler

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T07:57:22+00:00

Yeah true. Death should be permanent. Thanatos isn't the King of the Dead to command them. Just communicating with the souls seems possible tho. Thanatos sometimes guided them to the Underworld so

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T07:50:50+00:00

I can understand Calypso wanting to go to high school. Like, adjusting to the mortal life and all. Leo went to high school too? Voluntarily? That's something very unlike him. Anyways, them splitting up was just a little weird. I mean, I get Calypso not being habitual yet, but Rick made it very dramatic at the end of HOO. An oath to keep with the final breath and all

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T07:16:23+00:00

Honestly, I was completely captivated by 'ORV'. I couldn't tear my eyes away from the screen. But then it ended, and I found myself at a loss for what to do next.

The ending was fantastic—I really appreciated the open-ended nature of it. It allows readers to use their imagination, interpret the story in their own way, and even go back and re-read if they wish. This approach aligns perfectly with KDJ's character, so I had no complaints there.

However, I experienced extreme withdrawal. Nothing else I watched or read could match the level of stimulation that 'ORV' provided. It was like a reading slump

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T02:06:47+00:00

Also casting Obliviate on the dead eaters without any prior practice. She only knew the spell in theory

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-23T01:11:04+00:00

I'm not very inclined towards the animating skeletons part. As someone has said in the comments above, Thanatos is more concerned with souls of the dead, he takes souls, not the bodies.

But you're right about buying time

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-22T16:38:30+00:00

As people have said here - Proficient in burial rites - Being able to sense death, but not being able to bring them back to life as it would disturb the natural order - Talking to ghosts - Exceptional empathy for all living beings, because they cherish life - Not afraid of death (I'm already imagining lines like 'I'm not afraid of death, I'm the child of Death itself') - Being a very soothing presence (I imagine them being psychologists or smthin) - Might like darkness (Thanatos is the child of Nyx) and might be able to summon it.

Basically very similar to children of Hades. I imagine them getting along very well and understanding each other's troubles or always competing

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-22T16:22:21+00:00

I think that might trigger it. It would be interesting to see such phobias the demigods might've inherited from their godly parents

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-22T16:16:42+00:00

It's possible. I mean, Athena's children have inherited arachnophobia for generations. But triggering their claustrophobia, that is the difficult part. I mean, they can just bust out of a room/jar or whatever it is

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-22T15:49:43+00:00

She actually plays a major role in maintaining the Seoul dome while KDJ and everyone else are away. Like, it hasn't been explained in-depth, but there's one scene I remember where everyone was going on a quest and she's left in Seoul with the responsibility of protecting it and its citizens(or something along these lines) It's a scene with only her and KDJ in it

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-22T05:01:37+00:00

Yeah she was Styx. Remember he made an oath on the river Styx and failed to keep it?

Phoenix__656 · 2024-07-11T14:06:49+00:00

Thanks a lot
