Summary
“That guy I saw in the orientation film, the one with all those beads wrapped around his arms. He said he was the Assistant Director.” Percy said. “Who is he? He didn’t really talk about himself.”
Mr. D puts down a card with more force than Percy thought was necessary. “His name is Makários,” happy, privileged, blessed, his head automatically translates. “Firstborn of Apollo, Favored of Hestia. Though he insisted that everyone call him Mr. Mark since he ‘always hit his mark’, but really it was because his name was a mouthful.”
“Wait, he’s the guy that always comes back to life, right?” Percy asked. He thinks about how the color of the man’s eyes matched the flicks of amber gold in his own eyes. The man looked so kind.
“Usually.” was the Camp Director’s response. “But he’s been gone for a while. His most recent death wasn’t exactly normal. Dropped dead in front of all of us one day during breakfast and traumatized all the poor brats.”
“...Oh. I’m sorry.”
Or: This is not the first time Percy has been alive.
Though this was the first time he was born as a child of the Sea rather than a child of the Sun.
