Another idea is that Aphrodite decides to use Percy as a pawn in her game to make Hephaestus jealous, creating all sorts of romantic chaos for Percy. Or perhaps Percy discovers a secret pact between Aphrodite and Hephaestus that has far - reaching consequences for the demigod world, and he has to figure out how to deal with it.
One idea could be that Percy has to seek Hephaestus' help to repair a powerful weapon that is key to defeating a new threat. Maybe the weapon was broken in a battle against a mysterious monster.

And perhaps there's a sub - plot where Hephaestus' children are in some sort of trouble and Percy has to team up with them to solve the problem.

He'd have to use his new - found powers granted by Chaos in unique ways, like controlling the very essence of water in ways he never thought possible, such as turning it into solid light constructs for defense.
Well, a plot could involve Percy going on a quest specifically for Hestia. He might have to find a special artifact that is related to her. Along the way, he could meet new characters who are also loyal to Hestia. He would face challenges that test his loyalty to Hestia and his understanding of her values. For example, he might have to choose between saving the flame and saving his friends, and his decision would show his growth as a champion of Hestia.
Well, a cool plot might involve Percy being thrust into a situation where he has to mediate between Demeter and another god who has accidentally (or not) damaged one of her main domains.
