    Summary

    Cordelia Jackson had been warned. Ever since she had been thrust into this infernal world behind the Mist, she had heard all the stories. The stories of lawless lands and tyrannical kings, of epic wars and legendary heroes, of ruthless monsters and merciless gods.

    The stories of how things used to be.

    And now, she finds herself in the thick of it, with nobody to rely on but herself.

     

     

    May the gods' blessing be with you, for you shall certainly need it.

    Summary

    The walls. They are so tall, with mist shrouding the bottoms, and the night is so deep. The clamour rising out of the city behind him would cover any noise - all he has to do is relax his grip, and he avoids offending the gods and cuts off a threat to his family before it can grow. He wouldn’t even hear a cry or the sound of it hitting the rocks below.

    His stomach twists, and he blinks liquid that isn’t rain from his eyes.

    “Forgive me, O Chronodes,” he says, bowing, mind racing, “but if neither myself nor my good son can defend our home adequately by the time this boy is old enough to challenge us, then may Ithaca burn, and us with it.”

    ___

    Odysseus can't bring himself to kill Hector's son.

    Summary

    Just as he defeats Kronos, the Titan of Time curses Percy, throwing him thousands of years into the past. Trapped there, with the Trojan War raging around him, and a Pantheon he barely recognises in charge, Percy should give up all hope.

    But stubbornness is in his blood, and he'll shove himself into every significant event in ancient history until either 1) the Fates get so annoyed they send him back, or 2) Annabeth gets so sick of seeing his name in the Classics she invents time travel just to get him to stop.

    Summary

    Sometimes he watches certain souls hover through his clearing, the ones without voices or edges or concrete features. They always look so peaceful.

    Or: Patroclus talks to himself.
