She was utterly sincere and it seemed to have some effect." ]]> 2020-11-25 00:54:47 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958286424 page 310 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958290864 This shows Piper's power as a child of Aphrodite. It reveals her character and her power of charmspeak (influencing others with her voice) which comes into play later in the story. ]]> 2020-11-25 00:57:04 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958290864 page 83 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958298869 "Leo felt an urge to try it now- something he hadn't done since the accident, since his mother's death. He extended his fingers and felt them tingle, like they were waking up... Then flames flickered to life, curls of red-hot fire dancing across his palms."]]> 2020-11-25 01:01:25 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958298869 page 83 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958304173 This is when Leo starts to accept his title as son of Hephaestus, and when he gains the courage to try out his fire powers for the first time since his mother's death. This is a huge step for Leo, who's never wanted to admit anything about his powers. ]]> 2020-11-25 01:04:25 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958304173 page 225 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958308641 '"Jupiter," Jason noticed. "Before, he called me son of Zeus."']]> 2020-11-25 01:06:54 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958308641 page 225 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958310755 Even this short snippet of text reveals a lot about Jason. The book begins with Jason having no memories of who he is, except that his name is Jason. As the book continues, the reader learns about Jason's identity as a son of the Roman version of Zeus: Jupiter. It's Jason's Roman heritage that plays a key part in the story, as he is surrounded by only children of the Greek gods. ]]> 2020-11-25 01:08:04 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958310755 page 449 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958315845 "Coming this far had been a team effort, but when it came to a life-and-death decision, Leo knew Jason had a kind of balance to him. You could just tell he'd been in battle before, and he knew how to keep his cool. Leo wasn't exactly the trusting type, but Leo trusted Jason with his life."]]> 2020-11-25 01:10:57 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958315845 page 449 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958319486 This text reveals the bond Piper, Leo, and Jason hold. The book begins with Piper and Leo not knowing they are children of Greek gods, and with false memories of Jason. But as the story progresses, we see the dynamic trio start to form a real bond. This piece of text also reveals that even Leo and Piper don't know who Jason really is, but they're still willing to trust him.]]> 2020-11-25 01:12:48 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958319486 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958326994 2020-11-25 01:16:46 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958326994 Camp Half-Blood costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/958330775 Where the children of the Greek gods live.

Jason ran to the railing, thinking 'I'm a lunatic', and jumped over the side... He figured he hadn't accomplished anything except dying along with Piper, but he tucked in his arms and plummeted headfirst... The wind whistled in his ears, and Jason wondered what dying would feel like... Suddenly, the wind died down... Jason opened his eyes. They weren't falling. They were floating in midair, a hundred feet above the river."]]> 2020-11-25 17:02:06 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/960570155 pages 25-26 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/960591946 This passage reveals many things all at once. First, it shows Jason's bravery and heroic instincts, and we can deduce that he has been a fighter before. It shows that Jason would do anything for Piper, despite not knowing her. And lastly, this passage shows the reader that Jason has powers over the wind. This is huge revelation, because we don't know that Jason is a son of Jupiter at this point in the story. ]]> 2020-11-25 17:06:36 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/960591946 costicec https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/960642759 2020-11-25 17:17:13 UTC https://padlet.com/costicec/t9rbdf67hegfwa82/wish/960642759
