Chapitre 24: Chapter 23: The Council of Olympus
Weeks had passed since the defeat of Erebus, and Camp Half-Blood hummed with a renewed sense of purpose and vigilance. Percy Jackson and his team continued their rigorous training, their determination bolstered by the memory of their victory and the looming presence of potential threats.
One evening, as Percy stood at the edge of Half-Blood Hill, gazing out over the campgrounds bathed in the warm glow of twilight, a messenger from Olympus appeared—a shimmering figure with wings of gold.
"Percy Jackson," the messenger spoke, their voice resonating with authority. "The council of Olympus requests your presence."
Percy exchanged a glance with Annabeth, his mind racing with questions and anticipation. "What could the gods want now?" he wondered aloud, his voice tinged with curiosity and a hint of apprehension.
Annabeth placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "There's only one way to find out," she replied, her voice steady despite the uncertainty that lingered in the air. "Let's go."
Together, they made their way to the summit of Half-Blood Hill, where a shimmering portal awaited—a gateway to Olympus and the realm of the gods. With a deep breath, Percy stepped through, Annabeth by his side, and they emerged in the grand halls of Olympus.
The council of gods awaited them—a gathering of divine beings, each radiating power and authority. Zeus, his expression stern and regal; Poseidon, his trident shimmering with oceanic energy; Athena, her eyes sharp and calculating; and Hades, his presence a reminder of the underworld's shadows.
"We have summoned you, Percy Jackson," Zeus intoned, his voice echoing through the chamber, "to discuss the events surrounding Erebus and the artifact."
Percy nodded, his gaze steady as he stood before the council. "Erebus has been defeated," he affirmed, his voice clear and unwavering. "But the artifact remains a concern."
Poseidon stepped forward, his gaze meeting Percy's with understanding. "The artifact holds great power," he acknowledged, his voice resonating with the depths of the sea. "It must be safeguarded."
Athena, ever wise, added with a note of caution, "Its presence in the mortal world could attract unwanted attention. We must decide its fate carefully."
Hades, his eyes narrowing as he considered the implications, spoke with a measured tone. "Erebus was but one threat," he reminded them, his voice carrying the weight of his realm's shadows. "There are others who would seek to wield such power."
As the council deliberated, Percy and Annabeth exchanged glances, their minds racing with the responsibility entrusted to them. The artifact had played a crucial role in their victory against Erebus, but its potential for both good and harm was undeniable.
"We'll keep it safe," Percy vowed, his voice firm with determination. "Whatever it takes."
With a nod of agreement from the council, the decision was made. The artifact would remain under the guardianship of Percy Jackson and his team, its power safeguarded from those who would seek to exploit it for nefarious purposes.
As they departed from Olympus, the weight of their responsibility settled over Percy and Annabeth. The artifact was now their charge—a symbol of their commitment to protect their world from the forces of darkness.
Back at Camp Half-Blood, Percy gathered his team—the artifact gleaming with divine energy at his side. "We have a new mission," he declared, his voice carrying across the training grounds. "To safeguard the artifact and ensure that it never falls into the wrong hands."
Together, they stood united in their purpose, ready to face whatever challenges awaited them in their ongoing quest to protect their world and uphold the legacy of their victory against Erebus.
