Summary
“But where has the sun gone?"
"With its God, I suppose."The giants arise without warning, only a few months after Kronos dies - with no prophecy and no dreams. Apollo's vision of this occuring is one that his father punishes him for having, lest it disturb the sanctuary Olympus. The mist falls immediately, mortals and monsters facing each other, and underneath it all, demigods from all sorts of pantheons race to stop Gaea from rising to meet her soldiers. Apollo dies among them, fading into the slowly growing labyrinth that pulls him in the moment he becomes mortal.
OR: apollo is made mortal for having a vision that he can't remember, his ichor and his name stripped from him. with that, the sun stops working, as does his children's powers. immediately, the labyrinth finds him and keeps him trapped. percy is still missing his memories, jason is lost to the wilderness, and the giants have risen, destroying the mist as they do so. gaea is preparing to rise, the demigods have to stop her, and they have to find a way to save apollo too, all whilst the doors of death are chained.
