SPEAKER_05 1:42

Yeah. Out of one thick dragon body.

Yeah, one thick like a tree trunk of spaghetti. Yeah, spaghetti head. Spaghetti head.

SPEAKER_04 1:53

Okay.

SPEAKER_03 1:54

I I'm here for it.

SPEAKER_04 1:55

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:55

I'm here for it. I'm sure it's terrifying. Yeah. Because that's what he told us. This is a terrifying thing. It's terrifying. Whatever you could think, think of even more terrifying. Because the po yeah, LaDon. Dumb man, we le don't.

SPEAKER_05 2:12

Yeah. Okay, so we meet the dragon of eternal bad breath.

SPEAKER_03 2:16

Yeah, the eternal. Yeah, the rat breath. Rat breath. We've uh been playing a lot of uh smell scenarios.

SPEAKER_05 2:25

Yeah, it's been very olfactory and yeah.

SPEAKER_03 2:27

It's been riding that old. From the sea to the sewer. To the sea to the sewer. Rat breath. Smell of the wild.

SPEAKER_05 2:40

The gift.

SPEAKER_03 2:41

It's gift.

SPEAKER_05 2:42

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_03 2:43

Smell.

SPEAKER_05 2:44

And we even talked about the wild. We did. We got a blessing from the wild.

SPEAKER_01 2:50

I smell the gift.

unknown 2:52

The gift.

SPEAKER_06 2:54

It's a gift.

SPEAKER_05 2:57

Okay, so we start out. Um we ended the last chapter with them basically seeing that they need to go to the Garden of Hesperities.

SPEAKER_03 3:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 3:07

The Zoe's sister's garden.

SPEAKER_03 3:10

I must go home. Which we did discover. We uh our predictions were a little bit off, but you know, we'll get into that.

SPEAKER_05 3:19

Oh yeah. Don't know that mountain.

SPEAKER_03 3:24

Mm-hmm. I've never heard of it. That's cool. But we'll look out for it.

SPEAKER_05 3:28

Look out for it.

SPEAKER_03 3:28

Maybe we'll try to climb it ourselves.

SPEAKER_05 3:31

Finally got Mount Damn anyone. So yeah, they're mobbing to get there, but yeah, Zoe's saying they're going too slow.

SPEAKER_03 3:41

Yeah, it's kind of the truth that like we can't necessarily leave the ophiotaurus. Right. Because now that we know that it's a real precious thing.

SPEAKER_05 3:50

Right.

SPEAKER_03 3:51

They're kind of sprinting along the waterfront.

SPEAKER_05 3:54

But they do need to get there by sunset. Otherwise, because that's I guess, you know, the Hesperides are the nymphs of the sunset.

SPEAKER_03 4:03

Yes.

SPEAKER_05 4:04

So that's the only way to get in. And if they miss it today, they have to wait till tomorrow evening, and tomorrow the council will already be over.

SPEAKER_03 4:12

Yeah, totally.

SPEAKER_05 4:13

Like it has to be the night.

SPEAKER_03 4:14

Artemis has to be there at the council to obviously push this whole emergency agenda. Agenda. We're on code red now.

SPEAKER_05 4:23

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 4:24

The general is reveal himself.

SPEAKER_05 4:26

Reveal himself.

SPEAKER_03 4:27

Mm-hmm. So they gotta do it to know. Yeah, we and they need a car.

SPEAKER_05 4:32

They need a car. They also gotta figure out Bessie because she's got a few water. So Grover kind of cooks up this idea. It's a good idea, Grover. Like let's, you know, he can move through any body of water, obviously. Like we've seen him pretty much use water to get to Percy every time.

SPEAKER_03 4:48

Yeah, exactly. From the Hoover Dam, Long Island Sound, he's jumping around.

SPEAKER_05 4:54

So if we can get him to just go towards uh to Long Island back to Camp Half-Blood, we can keep him safe, I think is essentially the nine.

SPEAKER_03 5:04

Truth, truth.

SPEAKER_05 5:05

So Grover, uh he's the one that volunteers to show Bessie how to get back.

SPEAKER_03 5:11

He's the one that can talk to the cat. Yeah, he's a good one. So it's really what makes sense. Yeah. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 5:16

But then also he's kind of getting to this nine of how like Grover doesn't really do well with water. So kind of curious how that's gonna go, but Grover's doing it. So he does give him, yeah, get the blessing of the wild.

SPEAKER_03 5:28

He gives the blessing of the wild. So and that's actually he's placed the blessing of the wild on creatures before.

SPEAKER_05 5:35

Yes, like those three cat uh homies in the um in the truck, Hades uh moving truck, the zebra, the lion, and the other thing.

SPEAKER_03 5:47

In the lightning thief.

SPEAKER_05 5:49

Yeah. And like when they get released, he puts a blessing on them to keep them safe. The blessing is the blessing.

SPEAKER_00 5:56

Safe passage.

SPEAKER_03 5:58

Grover's so magical in his little ways.

SPEAKER_05 6:01

And then he tells Perse to also pray to Poseidon for sea guidance, sea safety.

SPEAKER_03 6:07

Yeah, this is the truth. So what he has to help get the Ophial Taurus and Grover back to protect them at sea.

SPEAKER_05 6:16

Right.

SPEAKER_03 6:16

And then they're like, Well, that's pretty big prayer. We need a sacrifice.

SPEAKER_05 6:21

Right.

SPEAKER_03 6:21

Percy comes in with the nine, like, well, I'm gonna give up this Neemian Lion. Neme and Lion. Bulletproof dust.

SPEAKER_05 6:30

Dude, that's raw. Dude, that jacket's so cool.

SPEAKER_03 6:33

I often forget that that's what he's been rolling around in for the majority of this episode.

SPEAKER_05 6:39

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 6:41

So, but he gives it up and then it kind of floats out to the sea and just like dissolves. So you feel a little mist.

SPEAKER_05 6:47

Right. He kind of like does this reflecting on the fact that like this is still also connected to Hercules, which makes him think of Zoe. Oh, and that's when he comes to the realization, like, oh, that's what that's the hero who, after Zoe over, was Herc. And kind of takes this line of like, I'm not gonna be Herc. I ain't Herc. Yeah, I don't want to be associated with someone that's gonna that did that to my friend.

SPEAKER_03 7:17

Kind of seems like truly, truly. Yeah. And when it comes full circle, like Percy's doing it for his homies always bringing it up for his homies.

SPEAKER_05 7:25

So yeah, dissolves. Yeah. So yeah, dissolves, accepted, and then just like that, Grover takes off with Bessie.

SPEAKER_03 7:36

That is kind of a funny little scene, just like Grover, you know. I can't really swim. Uh okay, we're gonna go to that long, long island. It's an island, it's long.

SPEAKER_04 7:47

It's long, it's a it's an island.

SPEAKER_03 7:52

And that is interesting to think, you know, because Grover can't breathe underwater.

SPEAKER_05 7:56

So we're asking for blessings right off the I would assume that, you know, because I'm assuming they're made, they're gonna make it, and maybe that Poseidon gives them an air bubble for Grover.

SPEAKER_03 8:08

That would be kind of a cool little scene.

SPEAKER_05 8:10

Just um But yeah, so they take off, they go underwater, and they're gone, and they're now they just gotta hope that they're gonna make it fine. Um now we gotta get to the Hesperities car.

SPEAKER_03 8:25

Okay, we need a car. We're kind of back on that night.

SPEAKER_05 8:28

We could steal one, but Percy doesn't want to do that. Um Dahlia says there's someone who can help them. Yeah. Going through, kind of looking and to be zapp. Professor Chase, anyone? Annabeth's Pops. A Pops? So we're just seeing everyone but Annabeth.

SPEAKER_03 8:46

Yeah, exactly. Milking it in a big way.

SPEAKER_05 8:50

In a big way. So, but that's pretty cool because I think is this the first time we're meeting apops?

SPEAKER_03 8:55

Yeah, yeah, for sure. And it's saying, like, oh, we expect him to be a real i9 or something.

SPEAKER_05 9:00

Yeah, because A Beth really does gripe and complain about it. Kind of sounds like, oh, dude, what an what an asshole.

SPEAKER_03 9:08

Yeah. After everything he's put abeth through. Right.

SPEAKER_05 9:12

But yeah, he's kind of kind of quirky cool. He's got these aviators.

SPEAKER_03 9:16

He's kind of like a cool quirker.

SPEAKER_04 9:18

Yeah, he's all nerd, made of a nerd. Uh hello, hello.

SPEAKER_02 9:24

Into airplanes.

SPEAKER_03 9:25

What's that first thing he says? Are you delivering my airplanes? Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 9:30

The sopwith camels. The sopwith camels.

SPEAKER_05 9:32

I need three more.

SPEAKER_03 9:33

Mm-hmm. But they get right into it like friends of A Beth. So it's like, okay.

SPEAKER_05 9:40

So something happened, you know, basically.

SPEAKER_03 9:42

Kind of describes him a little bit. He's got that like sandy colored hair. Abeth hair. The intense brown eyes. Yeah. He's a good looking cat, but he's, you know, a little bit older. Yeah. He looks a little disheveled.

SPEAKER_05 9:55

Yeah. He looks a little scatterbrained, just the buttons on kind of the wrong buttons.

SPEAKER_03 10:01

And maybe he's not as disheveled as our friend. But he is uh he's a quirker.

SPEAKER_05 10:10

Yeah, he's a quirker for sure. So they go inside, looks like it's a lived-in home. Yeah. Legos out the wazoo.

SPEAKER_03 10:19

Look like a house they just moved into.

SPEAKER_05 10:21

Yeah. Kids though, smells like fresh baked cookies, jazz music. Ooh, little zero. Sounds like a nice life, honestly. You got your kids playing around, honey bunny cooking, chocolate chip cookies, zaggity zet, a little jazzy jazz. Some Michael Frank's play.

SPEAKER_03 10:39

Michael Frank's and the young ones. It looks like maybe he's got twins or something.

SPEAKER_04 10:45

Yeah, Bobby and Matthew. Bobby Matthew, Bob. Bobby if you're nasty. A little Matthew if you're hasty. You're hasty?

SPEAKER_03 10:54

So And then we even meet uh Mrs. Chase.

SPEAKER_05 10:58

Yes, little Asian Asian woman with red highlighted hair. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 11:03

Okay. And she seems even nice.

SPEAKER_05 11:05

Yes, exactly. She seems quite understanding. Yeah. What are the names?

SPEAKER_03 11:11

So they even like kind of introduce themselves. They're feeling good. They even get sandwiches and sodas and stuff. And cookies. It's a good night. Oh my gosh. Okay, it's a good life to live.

SPEAKER_05 11:23

So she brings he brings up how, like, alright, they're here because of Abeth, which you know, Percy kind of I kind of also expected her to be like, Abeth, the girl that ruined our lives. Yeah, exactly. Well, she wants to get these kids out of here. I don't want nothing. Why would you even mention a name? But she's very like understanding. Yeah. And this whole nine of like, nice to meet you, Percy. I've heard a lot about you. I've heard a lot about you. Abeth's. Talking about Perders.

SPEAKER_06 11:53

Screening friends and fun.

SPEAKER_02 11:57

Let's go.

SPEAKER_03 11:58

But then yes, uh uh, we jump upstairs pretty much, and uh what we see this room like covered with books. Pretty cool, and he's got this like recreation of an army scene, yeah, kind of going on. And uh what it gets into the third battle of Ypris?

SPEAKER_04 12:20

Ypris.

SPEAKER_05 12:24

Yeah, he's all about these sopwith camels. Yeah. All about they played a pivotal role. So much greater than what they've been given credit for.

SPEAKER_03 12:34

The most serious thing you've ever heard of. He even has one. I think he's gonna be a good one. Yeah, he did say that.

SPEAKER_05 12:43

So oh yeah, and then Zoe kind of comes in about this night that she was there. Cause yeah, that's a was that a World War II battle.

SPEAKER_03 12:54

That kind of makes sense to get a little bit more aviated into World War II.

SPEAKER_05 12:59

Okay, yeah. So, yeah, but Zoe comes out with that, she's like, oh yeah, the German lines are farther. How do you know that? Because I was there. Oh my god. This whole night, how like Artemis took them basically to just see how foolish men's fighting is. It's like, oh, look at how sloppy they are.

SPEAKER_04 13:15

Look at this.

SPEAKER_03 13:16

This bloodshed, bloodlust. There's no strategy. There's no precision. So um but they're kind of snapping on, like, alright, we need to uh Abeth's in danger. Abeth is honestly going through some stuff.

SPEAKER_05 13:33

Yeah. So they explain it to him as the sun's setting. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 13:37

They can kind of tell them. I mean, because they're pretty much filling him in. He knows about demi-blutteries, so they can keep him in the full nine.

SPEAKER_05 13:45

Exactly. So they finish up and basically come out with it like so. We need transportation mounted. Yeah. Mount pays. He says I'll I'll fly, I'll drive you, I would fly you, but sopwood's only seat two.

SPEAKER_03 14:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 14:02

Oh yeah, that's what it's like. Oh yeah, he's got one.

SPEAKER_02 14:05

Oh my goodness. So I like how he just drops it in, like, oh yeah, yeah, probably the 20s. It's just what he got. I'm an exclusive patent ship.

SPEAKER_04 14:14

I've got an exclusive patent yep.

SPEAKER_05 14:16

All right, so. Natalia's keeping it on track. Like you, we need to go, dog. And we need to go without you, dog. Because he's just a boy.

SPEAKER_03 14:26

He can't handle this stuff. But then Mrs. Chase comes in with the snacks. Yes. Always nice to get some cokes and some fresh cookies.

SPEAKER_05 14:35

And then Zoe says, I can drive. You know, she's probably the most responsible. Biddy Bop. She's the oldest. Um, whatever.

SPEAKER_03 14:45

So. And it's interesting that Mrs. Chase actually agrees to all this. Yes. When it comes down to it. She's like, okay. Yeah. Get on your way. Take the car, no questions asked. Bada bada boom. The keys, that whole funny thing about, oh, you would lose your head if it weren't wrapped inside your aviator hat. And I'm like, so yeah. That kind of wraps up Dr. Chase in a nutshell right there. In an aviator cat.

SPEAKER_05 15:16

Right. They dip out, and then, oh yeah, on the way out, Mrs. Chase gives her that thing of like, hey, when you see Annabeth, like, just tell her that she has a home there.

SPEAKER_03 15:25

Oh my gosh. That was the cutie key. That was cute. So I'm curious. I'm curious to see how their relationship involves. Because Paris kind of looks around at the nines. He's like, This is a good life, girl.

SPEAKER_06 15:36

Yeah. Come out.

SPEAKER_03 15:37

And they welcome you here.

SPEAKER_05 15:39

So, but yeah, they're mobbing now. They're going. The sun's going down this track. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 15:45

So they gotta move. But yeah, traffic. And I mean, it makes sense. We in Cali Bloods.

SPEAKER_05 15:50

Right, we in Cali Bloods. But yeah, we're going and we're on the Golden Gate Bridge. Um, Marin County, they get off the highway.

SPEAKER_03 15:57

Yeah, smells of eucalyptus go out. Oh, yeah.

SPEAKER_05 16:00

This whole thing of like how monsters like to eat eucalyptus.

SPEAKER_03 16:04

Yeah, they chew the eucalyptus and especially dragons. Did they dragons? Dragons enjoy eucalyptus, anyone. But you know, we don't question, but we're kind of keeping our eyes peeled because we're in dragon country now.

SPEAKER_05 16:16

Yeah. Okay. So now we're coming up to this mountain. It's you know, mountain of despair. Why do they call it that? Okay, so in the first war, uh yeah, when the Titans and the gods fought, Cronos was cut up. Um, the general was impr Cronus' general was imprisoned up.

SPEAKER_03 16:39

And they were imprisoned on the summit just beyond the Garden of the Hisperites. Okay. And it does kind of call out the general one more time. And it's like, what is going on up there? Some kind of a storm? Yeah. But we don't really answer because we're just mobbing. Tali is like, okay, we gotta concentrate. The mist is really strong here. Yeah. It's like, okay, what what kind of mists? Both kind of mists.

SPEAKER_05 17:08

So we're mobbing um towards the mountain, and then that's when he sees, like, over the edge uh the ship. Oh, the ship. Yeah, and he's like, that was a big white ship. It was a cruise ship.

SPEAKER_03 17:21

Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_05 17:22

And he's like, I, you know, he wasn't quite sure, but he was like, I'm pretty sure that was the Princess Andromeda.

SPEAKER_03 17:28

Makes sense why they were going through that Panama canal. Exactly. They had to loop, scoop, and dupe. So then now we know Kronos' army is on site. Yeah. Fusing up uniting forces with the general now. So we just gotta have a slam on the brakes.

SPEAKER_05 17:44

Yeah, the stop Thalia calls it. So she must have sensed it because it's lightning. Yeah, so maybe it's like, oh shit, lightning's about to hit us. Oh dear. Boom, they hop out because then yeah, lightning explodes it, which again she thinks, okay, is that my dad?

SPEAKER_03 18:01

Yeah. Like, what the what? Because this was kind of blip blop blooped out of nowhere.

SPEAKER_05 18:06

Exactly. And that whole part of the prophecy, one shall perish by a parent's hand.

SPEAKER_03 18:12

By a parent's hand.

SPEAKER_05 18:13

It's like, oh damn.

SPEAKER_03 18:15

So And it's, you know, because if Zeus got almighty, would really wanted to have killed Thalia, could he have sent like a direct lightning bolt straight? Yeah. But only Thai will tell.

SPEAKER_05 18:29

So, but yeah, we don't know who it is, but now we don't know where Zoe is. So Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 18:34

That was kind of a scary little night where it's like cloudy, we don't know what's going on, and then Zoe's just like, hey, I'm here.

SPEAKER_05 18:41

It's alright.

SPEAKER_03 18:41

Be quiet.

unknown 18:42

Shh.

SPEAKER_05 18:42

Yeah, we're gonna wake up a don, yeah, when dragon country. So now they're following her. She's leading them through these fogs, which seem like she just kind of disappears into the fog. Yeah, and and there was a piece of me like, is she a is she a ghost right now?

SPEAKER_03 18:58

Almost. It turns out not, but I was I was definitely mystified through this part of Scoot. Yeah, so concentrate on Zoe. Let's keep moving.

SPEAKER_05 19:08

So now they're kind of talking about, you know, like Percy brings up, yo, back there, like, were you actually gonna kill the things?

SPEAKER_04 19:18

Things were kind of weird.

SPEAKER_05 19:20

This this cool cool and she just does not want to talk about it. Um and uh so then he's kind of trying to get her to think, like, all right, it wasn't Zeus that did the lighting bolts, Kronos. He's just trying to rally you up.

SPEAKER_03 19:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 19:34

Um, and but anyways, she just pushes it off. We need to go, they follow. Um, and yeah, now they're kind of like on the same path, but different on the other side. It's like that road. Yeah, fogs, grassier.

SPEAKER_03 19:52

Um, the sun is setting, we got a little blood red slash. Yeah. But we're kind of just cruising on at this point.

SPEAKER_05 19:59

And just like that, they're right at the you know, the garden.

SPEAKER_03 20:03

Yes, the garden of twilight. Just like it's seen in his dreams.

SPEAKER_05 20:07

Yeah. So, and then of course the dragon right off the bat, five stories tall. Oh my gosh. Brilliant colors. Sounds like a beautiful. Oh, five-story tall apple trees. Yes, yes. Um, but he's wrapped around the bottom.

SPEAKER_03 20:24

Um it's got these golden apples.

SPEAKER_05 20:27

Like actual gold.

SPEAKER_03 20:28

Yeah, the true gold.

SPEAKER_05 20:31

Cool.

SPEAKER_03 20:32

Shine it up. That's the princess kit.

SPEAKER_05 20:35

That's the princess kit. So these are the apples of immortality. Here's a wedding gift from Zit.

SPEAKER_03 20:42

You really want to pluck one of these suckers. Yeah. And uh, you know, that dragon though.

SPEAKER_05 20:50

Yeah, so now we're getting a dragon.

SPEAKER_03 20:54

It's always cool to get a good dragon description.

SPEAKER_05 20:57

Thick body, but then all these almost like sound makes me think of Medusa-esque.

SPEAKER_03 21:02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 21:03

Where they're all just kind of sprouting out of the end, and it's just like hundreds of serpent heads.

SPEAKER_03 21:08

Yeah, exactly. Deadly pythons that had been fused together.

SPEAKER_05 21:14

That's why.

SPEAKER_03 21:14

But they're all asleep for the time being, so we're kind of chilling.

SPEAKER_05 21:17

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:18

But uh we're hearing this kind of eerie singing all the sudden.

SPEAKER_05 21:23

Ah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:23

We're going to reach for Riptide, like, what the mysticism? Zoe's like, no, no, no, no.

SPEAKER_05 21:29

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 21:29

And then all of a sudden the hesperites themselves appear. Oh my gosh. White Greek chitons, skin like caramel. Anyone?

SPEAKER_05 21:39

Talk to me, silky black hair. It's cool, it's a good look.

SPEAKER_04 21:43

It's gorgeous.

SPEAKER_03 21:45

Reminds us how ha yah yah. How hot Zoe is. Zoe is hot too, but very dangerous, of course. Always. So these are the sisters. She greets them. She says sisters, but they're immediately like, you are not. No sister of them.

SPEAKER_05 22:01

We see half bloods and a hunter. That's it. All of whom will soon die.

SPEAKER_03 22:06

Yeah, and he's like, hey, Percy says no one's gonna die. You can trust Percy's on the nines. Right. So it seems like they've heard of Percy before, though, you know?

unknown 22:19

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04 22:19

Perseus Jackson. Yeah, I don't see why he's a threat.

SPEAKER_05 22:24

Like, who said he's a threat? They fear thee. They are unhappy that this one has not yet killed thee. Oh, and she points at Thalia. Oh. Interesting. So who is this they they're talking about? Interesting.

SPEAKER_03 22:39

Maybe these Hesperides have a little like, you know, no boys allowed kind of a thing going on, too. Mm-hmm. Maybe it's a huntress type mentality. Right. But yeah, they're telling them to go back. Mm-hmm. Uh but they're pushing like, yo, we're here for Annabeth and Annabelle. And Artemis, of course. Can't rem can't forget the this is the plan.

SPEAKER_05 23:04

Right. So we gotta go to the mountain, and the girls are like, he's gonna kill you.

SPEAKER_03 23:09

And they're kind of saying, like, oh, we'll wake up LaDon. You should be careful, or we'll wake up LaDon. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05 23:18

And then she's like, what? Ledon? I'll wake up Ledon. What you think about that? What you know about the thing that I know about Ledon. I raised him. So now these girls are running cowards. And Zoe's like, listen, these guys are cowards. That's your problem. Yeah. But yeah, she uh she's the one that raised LaDon, so she starts going forward. Yeah. As Ladon's waking up, and uh she's basically like, okay, it it's trained to protect the tree, so you guys skirt around while I keep it distracted. Yeah. Um, and then, you know, hopefully she's gonna meet up.

SPEAKER_03 24:04

Yeah, exactly. Kind of like you and this is where, you know, heroes will step up when they need to. Right. It's not always Percy. We gotta Zoe taking the lead. Exactly. It does talk about the s the stench. The stench, the city stench of the maze.

SPEAKER_05 24:24

Dude, when it's I remember the time a rat had died inside our apartment wall. Made me think of In the Kingdom when the rat had died under the The refrigerator, yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_03 24:36

Bin zip zap Raw.

SPEAKER_05 24:38

It was a raw scent.

SPEAKER_03 24:40

Yeah, I think there might have been a I don't know if there was a poisoning inventory. There was a poisoning involved. And after that, we were like, we can't. We stopped the poisoning, yeah. It just doesn't make sense. So um But that's a nasty stench.

SPEAKER_05 24:56

Nasty stench. So yeah, they're they're going, Thali goes left, he goes right, Zoe's going towards the dragon and kind of like talking soft to it. Okay.

SPEAKER_03 25:06

Zoe's come back. She's trying to get her little kumbayas, but the Hesperides they disappear, and the last thing they say is just like fooless. So they know like y'all don't know nothing happened here.

SPEAKER_05 25:19

But it's cute. She's like, I used to feed you by hand.

SPEAKER_03 25:22

You still like lamb's meat. Oh. And that is kind of cute to think. I mean, kind of weird to think about a hundred-head baby dragon.

SPEAKER_05 25:31

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 25:32

Baby anything is cute.

SPEAKER_05 25:34

Exactly. Let's go. So, but Percy and Thalia pretty much make it. They're on the other side when suddenly it's like, oh, he kind of feels the dragon's mood shift, looks and then the dragon is lunging at Zoe. And then Zoe just like a beast. It's just dodging the shape. He's head full of liquid. 2,000 years of training. So Perse goes to help, but she's just like, no, keep running.

SPEAKER_03 26:04

Yeah, we gotta I got this.

SPEAKER_05 26:07

And uh so they mob, um, and Zoe makes it. And of course the dragon stays because he's you know trained to guard the tree.

SPEAKER_03 26:14

Yeah, exactly. He's a well-trained dragon, and that's a good dragon to keep around. Exactly. He's well trained for the tree.

SPEAKER_05 26:21

And just like that, they're on their way. Now they're going towards going up the mountain.

SPEAKER_03 26:26

To the sound of like the Hesperides just ho. Yeah. So what we get to this mountain, it's like Mount Oth Othhris. Othras, yes. It's kind of like, okay, cool. So what is Mount Mount Othhrin? It's the mountain fortress of the Titans. So it was the rival capitals. To Olympus. Yeah, the anti limbus.

SPEAKER_05 26:54

Anti-Lympus, anyone? Antilympus. Ant Olympus? Oh my gosh. So, and of course, since Olympus won the last war, then it is nothing.

SPEAKER_03 27:07

Yeah, it's like all these statues are melted and stuff.

SPEAKER_05 27:10

Yeah, but then Purs is like, wait, so how's it here then? And that's when it's like, oh okay, it's like Olympus, where it moves with civilization where its energy is the strongest.

SPEAKER_03 27:22

Okay. But if it's on this mountain, this is not good. Yeah, this is Atlas's mountain.

SPEAKER_05 27:32

Where he holds where he used to hold up the sky, which is like, oh, now it's because now it's Artemis holding up the sky.

SPEAKER_03 27:40

Yeah, exactly.

SPEAKER_05 27:42

So they get up there, and of course, we're right in it. We got Artemis just like the vision, bound up, holding up the sky.

SPEAKER_03 27:49

Exactly. Oh my goodness.

SPEAKER_05 27:52

The cavern roof that he saw in the dreams was actually the roof of the world.

SPEAKER_03 27:56

Roof of the world. What are you doing? And then we got Artemis. And then what of course Zoe's trying to rush forward? Yeah, to help. But she's saying, just like stay back, my sweet, sweet girl. It is a trap. She's saying straight up, like, y'all gotta get the hell out of here. But uh, you know, Zoe's of course very sad.

SPEAKER_05 28:19

And then boom, we got General on the scene. Comes in. He just drops the mic up in his motherfucking touching. And yeah, he's there with Luke, with a bunch of Draconae, with the sarcophagus of Kronos, and Abh at Luke's side. So we got the whole cantanya.

SPEAKER_02 28:38

Oh yeah. It's funny to think they're just toting this sarcophagus around, just like he's part of the crew until he fully reads.

SPEAKER_05 28:47

He doesn't want to miss this. And yeah, even because he's like Percy's trying to, you know, talk to Abeth through his eyes, and her eyes are just saying, fucking run. Yeah, you could run, run boy.

SPEAKER_03 29:01

So my gosh.

SPEAKER_05 29:02

But of course, they're here to get Abeth. Um let her.

SPEAKER_03 29:06

It was wild to talk where it like described Luke being a little bit pale, yeah, weak. Looks even worse. Doug. This whole, yeah, poor Luke, man. He's on a rough path. He is. Mm-hmm. And uh oh my gosh. And what, Artemis is just over there, like, don't even challenge him. Yeah. Don't even challenge. And then what? Percy's finally kind of getting tuned in, like, wait, Turkey Club, you're atlas? He's like, Yes, I am, you fools. I will kill you presently, but first, this wretched girl.

SPEAKER_05 29:46

Yeah, this Zoe Trader.

SPEAKER_04 29:48

Uh huh.

SPEAKER_03 29:49

Of course, Percy's like, I won't let you hurt her. Yeah. Because I'm always there for my friends. Yeah. But he's like, yo, this is a family matter.

SPEAKER_05 30:00

Yeah. Well, you mean a family matter?

SPEAKER_03 30:02

Family matters, anyone?

SPEAKER_05 30:04

And that's when Zoe's like, Atlas is my father.

SPEAKER_03 30:09

He's my own father.

SPEAKER_05 30:11

Damn! A young two. Patricide anyone?

SPEAKER_03 30:15
