![]() He gets one in the weirdest way possible. He wants to leave camp to find her, but to do that he’ll need a quest. ![]() The dream convinces Percy that Annabeth is alive but in grave danger. Nearby, her once-trusted friend Luke Castellan sneers, then turns and walks away.

Find it, and destroy it before it can destroy Olympus. And she’ll find the monster Thorn mentioned. Artemis senses that Annabeth is gone, but not lost. Percy wants to dive after her, but the Hunters restrain him. Roaring with rage, the manticore leaps off a cliff, taking Annabeth with him.

But Percy, Annabeth, and Thalia Grace-recently recovered from her years as a pine tree thanks to the Golden Fleece-don’t hesitate to travel to Bar Harbor, Maine, when Grover calls for help.
