Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Still passed out, Piper dreams about her last day with her father. They share a serene day on the beach, and discuss the similarities between Greek and Cherokee mythology. However, anxiety hovers in the background, and eventually, he learns Piper “stole” a BMW, and follows his assistant Jane’s advice to send her to the wilderness school. Her dream changes; suddenly, a giant appears. He is the one who warned her once before to do his bidding, and this time, he reiterates his message and reveals his name: Enceladus. Piper finally wakes up and cries at the thought that she must betray Jason and her new friends to save her father. Rachel tries to comfort her.
Piper goes to the campfire where she expects her mother to claim her. A camper notes the recent strange occurrences and asks Rachel if the “Great Prophecy” has started. She confirms that it has. She reveals the first two lines of it, and in a trance, Jason adds two more: “Seven half-bloods shall answer the call. /To storm or fire the world must fall. / And oath to keep with a final breath.
