Mark Of Athena: 2nd Ending
LEO'S CHOICE

Leo's Choice Leo Valdez, Son of Hephaestus (Greek)

This all happened in New Rome in Camp Jupiter. I fired on it without knowing. Now I got a fortune cookie from Nemesis, the goddess of revenge. It can save me or kill me. It feels heavy in my magic pocket. I also fixed the ship, Argo II with Celestial Bronze, or like steel for mortals. A Roman legion, Roman eagles, and angry nymphs, or nature spirits are chasing us. Leo Valdez (Greek) We landed at the original Rome, in Italy. Percy Jackson, son of Poseidon, and Annabeth Chase, Blessing of Athena, went off on their business on the "Mark of Athena". Frank Zhang, Hazel Levesque, and I are left. I say, "Let's go there". We walk to a store. A bunch of people is staring at us with glowing eyes. We run across, but are sucked into a wall black, very black and end up in a huge room. Frank turns into a bear and crashes into a wall. The floor rumbles. "Frank, come back!" I holler. We get into a circle, and get into a defense position. Then a hidden door opened, and eidolons or possessing spirits come in mannequins. Hellhounds, Laistrygonians and Cyclops, which are giants, came in and attacked. I took Greek fire, or fire that burns on anything, even water. I created a fire wall with five-foot radius. I kept creating spikes, and firebombs. The monsters would not die because the Door of Death or magic doors that stop dead people from not going back to life again, are open.

Frank Zhang, Son of Mars (Roman)
I am in trouble! Fire is my weakness. One touch and I will die. I got angry and turned into a dragon. I got the power because I am related to Pylos, who was blessed by Neptune to shape shift. I swiped away dozens of monsters. I kept on whipping my tails.

Hazel Levesque, Daughter of Pluto (Roman) I yelled at Leo to open his cookie. He looked for it. I summoned diamond spears, and they came in lumps. I shaped

    Women in Ancient Greece were often seen as inferior and unintelligent, they quite rarely made impacting decisions. Women were not allowed to own property or have a job that could earn them real money, they legally belonged to their father or husband. Despite the lack of power women had in Ancient Greece, Homer did not take that into account while writing. In The Odyssey, women are critical to Odysseus’ trials, and successes.…

    Instead of simply being gifted with magic, Percy is the son of a Greek God. His friends aren’t mere mortals with spell books. They are Annabeth, the daughter of Athena, and Grover, a satyr. The section of school that hates him isn’t the old home of the series’ big evil, but the most competitive section of students, the children of the God of War, Ares. And instead of Quidditch, Percy finds himself participating in a chariot race. The world of The Lightning Thief brings Greek mythology into the modern world. Who knew that Mount Olympus was located on floor 1000 of the Empire State Building? Or that the Greek gods are responsible for the spread of Western civilization? Unbeknownst to us, we walk among monsters who scour the Earth hoping to find the children of Gods before the Gods do in order to eliminate their competition.…

    When I was deciding on a character, right away I chose Athena. I chose Athena because I believe she is the most interesting (besides Odysseus) character in the book. Speaking of Athena, Athena is a very important character in the first few chapter of the Odyssey. She is the one who puts Odysseus's son on the path to find Odysseus and learn what is his faith. She did this by showing up to Odysseus’s house in human form and convincing Telemakhos to call all of his mothers suitors in front of the gods and try to convince them to leave. When that didn't work “Athena was nearby and came to him, putting on Mentor’s figure and his tone,” and told him that she will find him a boat She told him to sneak out of the house and go down to the docks to…

    Reflecting upon Olympia and Delphi, it is possible to highlight both similarities and differences between the two sanctuaries. In examining the location and the main attributes of each sanctuary, it is clear how they differ and how they are comparable in various ways. Whilst they clearly differ in their geographical situation, they are similar in that they both host their own games. However it is what occurs in these games that distinguish between the two. Both sanctuaries have considerable religious elements to them; however it is arguable that Delphi has more religious significance to the rest of the world, its main attribute being the oracle, and Olympia seems to prize itself more on its games rather than its religious significance, as the games had such an effect on the Ancient Grecian world.…

    Athena In The Odyssey

    ak to the people they are watching over such as the instance in the Odyssey where Athena comes to Ithaca to visit Telemachus and reassure him that his father will be coming home and recommends a journey for the boy and to wait a year to allow him to make it home (pg.296). Though Telemachus may have not known it was Athena this is an example of a seen and heard Goddess which allows for her to reassure the boy. It is also seen with Achilles and Athena in the Iliad when Achilles is about to fight to the death with Agamemnon, on lines 205 and 206 it says “Athena came sent by the white-armed goddess Hera who loved and watched over the two men” (pg 194). In this scene it goes on to display a scene of the gods taking their power of visibility and…
