Percy Jackson is Awesome!!! discussion

What IS exactly the Mark of Athena?

Maybe it's some sort of curse...idk...

Is an object?

I think so cuz of the first chapter...

Yeah me too. Maybe it's a MATCH

Every time I think f the cover I think it's annabeth holding a torch

I think it's a rare curse that only a child of athena can get?

Hm that's a good idea. Like the fire thing with Leo. And Athena chose her. And it has to be annabeth because of the synopsis.

hey did you read son of neptune? ELLA, the harpy, says a prophecy about a mark of athena:

“Wisdom’s daughter walks alone,

The Mark of Athena burns through Rome.”

Oooo! Like all the idea's!!!

Yeah I remember that. So thats why I think of annabeth holding a torch but that doesn't HAVE to be right

yeah or maybe shes with leo ''BURNS THROUGH ROME''

or she is the fire that burns thruogh rome mabey it is a different meaning.

yeah possible

Annabeth: Hey Leo c'mere.
Leo: Yeah?
Annabeth: pulls out knife. You are going to follow me in flames or I'm going to cut your heart out and force you to eat it.
Leo: Okay okay!

HAHAHA lol i wish that really happened

Leo: She's meant for me!
Annabeth: Keep walking torchie

Hm yeah but I have a feelingit's nothing good

The mark. It's nothin good. Athena wants annabeth to avenge her

*Winces* that no sound good. Nope. Let me do some research and see what I find...

Hurry!!!

I can't find any myths that Athena did any wrongdoings. Hmmm

Probably. Maybe Athena owes a debt to someone and can't pay it off...?

Grr uncle Rick!!!

Maybe...man this is hard...good thing it's dear Uncle Ricks job...dot dot dot....dot dot dot...

Did you look up Arachne?

Yeah, I know about her already. But 1: it's a really old myth, 2: there's not much more arachnae could do, 3: that was a myth Greeks and Romans used to explain why spiders wove webs. Sooo indent think she could have anything to do with it...

Yeah.

It could be a curse that Athena puts on Percy, considering it was never specified who gets said curse. Just that it’s the Mark of Athena.

i've got an idea lets stick all the prophecies together and try to find a clue

I like both Elisar and Yousef's ideas!!!

Hm okay

Seven half bloods shall answer the call,
to storm or fire the world must fall,
an oath to keep with a final breath,
and foes bear arms to the doors of death.
Wisdom's daughter walks aloone,
the mark of Athena burns through Rome.

Don't forget:

Falling from ice, the son of Neptune shall drown.


that may not be complete yet... *wiggles eyebrows*

with rick riordan nothing is simple... it isn't like him to just leave that on an empty string. nope nope nope mr. complicated has to tie another string to it.

and another...


and another...

and an- well u get what i mean

ok lets take away a sentence that already happened

and foes bear arms to the dooors of death- Thanatos was freed

(I think) an oath to keep with a final breath- Percy swore that if the Greeks and Romans have a war he will be on the Roman's side

hm no i don't think that happened yet. they need to go to the ORIGINAL doors of death in Greece.


Good idea about the Percy thing... but get this....

"Annabeth was trying hard not to cry. Chiron brushed a tear from her cheek. 'Stay with Percy, child,' he told her. 'Keep him safe. The prophecy- remember it!'
'I- I will.'
'Um...' I said. 'Would this be the super dangerous prophecy that had me in it, but the gods hav forbidden you to tell me about?'
Nobody answered.
'Right,' I muttered. 'Just checking.'
'Chiron...' Annabeth said. 'You told me the gods made you immortal only so long as you were needed to train heroes. If they dismiss you from camp-'
'Swear you will do your best to keep Percy from danger,' he insisted. 'Swear it upon the River Styx.'
'I- I swear it upon the River Styx,' Annabeth said."

-Sea of Monsters, pg. 53-54


what if THAT is the oath? huh huh?!?!

Oh, gods. Ohgodsohgodsohgodsohgods.

i know......... it scares me!!! badly!!! i saw that in a fan fic i read and i was like... omgosh. what if that actually happens. it was just a flashback annabeth had but i freaked!
