The campers were visibly serious and resolute as the moment weighed heavily on my mind. I wanted to shake off the feeling that this could be our final farewell. I acknowledged their bravery, calling them the greatest heroes of this era, encouraging them to face the monsters with courage. Our collective determination filled the air as I rallied them, emphasizing the importance of fighting together for a common cause.

As I raised my sword, Riptide, high and shouted a battle cry for Olympus, their voices united with mine in a powerful affirmation. Our chants resonated off the surrounding buildings, reinforcing our bond and resolve. The impending battle loomed, but in that moment, we stood strong together, ready to face whatever challenges awaited us.
