Not gonna lie I enjoyed it more than the Percy Jackson books.

[@reneleanor9231]

Ikr- I enjoyed it even more than the original series. I hope they include it in the Disney plus series

[@snobutasu]

I believe there is also another meaning for "foes bear arms..." because at the beginning, the Greek and Roman camp were rivals, hence why Octavian was in pursuit of the Greeks for the entirety of the series. But more importantly, the demigods of the Prophecy of Seven are a combination of Greek and Roman demigods, the two factions who can also be described as "foes". I think Annabeth mentioned this, that maybe the prophecy line goes two-ways: the rest of Argo II demigods who are supposed to be foes going to the upper doors of death, and Percabeth in Tartarus side with Bob and Damasen, a Titan and a Giant who are natural foes of demigods.

[@IDK-y1n]

I don't know if anyone else realized this but SPOILER ALERT: You say the line "To Storm or Fire the world must fall" is ultimately about Leo. But he survives, starts a life with Calypso, and then Jason dies later. So what if that was actually from the Prophesy of Seven? Jason died because Leo survived? I just can't feel like it's a coincidence.

[@shovonferdous226]

Good theory

[@tristanxrobbie]

I’m busy reading House of Hades and Piper theorised the same thing. She said that what if that line means that only Leo or Jason would survive the whole ordeal

[@preltech]

SPOILERS Leo did die, but was revived with a potion that they spent like the entire book making

[@thalmoragent9344]

@@preltech True, but maybe the Prophecy meant that one of them HAD to die, so since Leo had lived, the Fates took Jason's life later on instead

[@avikaagarwal8237]

The last line in the prophecy could also refer to all Percy, Annabeth, Bob/Iapetus and Damasen to be foes. As Percy is a son of Poseidon and Annabeth is a daughter of Athena so they have rivalry and demigods, Titans and giants are sworn enemies. So in theory, all of them are supposed to be foes but they end up saving the world.

[@Nathan-ez1wo]

I hope the next videos can be about "The Trials of Apollo", I loved the books and Apollo is in my opinion the most interesting Protagonist we've ever had, not only because it's the first time we have the story from the point of view of a God, but also how he changes in the course of the journey.

Actually that's not true, Piper and Jason were technically both single because their relationship that Piper remembered was only because of Gaea Also correct me if I'm wrong but both Frank and Hazel were single too, they didnt become a couple until the end of Son of Neptune

[@reeva1021]

i think another person already said this, but i love talking about the entire series as a whole so yes. in the prophecy of 7, it was said to storm or fire the world 'must' fall and oath to keep with a final breath meaning that either jason or leo was supposed to die and an oath was supposed to be fulfilled when they did. but leo being the smartass he is, found a loophole and outwitted the prophecy or so we thought. but we've known this forever that you cant get out of prophecies. what happens is going to happen and theres nothing you can do about it. youre just going to end up causing more problems and worse outcomes will come to life. so leo coming back to life and cheating the prophecy, condemned, for a lack of a better word, jason to die. it was inevitable. jason and leo dont even meet again after blood of olympus, if im not wrong. so they just exchanged places. instead of leo dying, jason was going to. "the oath to keep with a last breath" was not leo's promise to calypso, rather it was more of jason making apollo promise that he would remember what it was like to be a human after he became a god. he made him promise that he wouldnt forget the sacrifices and the shit demigods go through every time they gods decide to meddle with things. although i think the jason thing could have just been related to the burning maze cause the oracle (? im not really sure about this) said that either jason or piper would die the next time they decide to go there again. idk tho. i just think the whole theory is really sad, because leo wouldve been devastated that he indirectly doomed jason to die. i dont think such a huge thing would simply be a coincidence though. jason survived a great prophecy, just to end up dying in a side venture. either way i hope riordan's pillow is uncomfortable and he does not sleep well at night :)

I am really excited for the PJO Disney+ series. I got even more excited when Rick Riordan recently announced the trio.

One thing I realized after reading "Heroes of Olympus" and "The Trials of Apollo" is that the Gods are assholes and far from the "Good Guys". They're just the best option, with the other two being bloodthirsty Titans and a vengeful Ancestral Goddess.

I know is a wild theory but when I was rereading I realised Octavian also had a connection with storms. He's seen controlling storms when he's introduced. So because Leo saved himself. Octavian died "a hero". Like in the prophecy Octavian's attack went first, then Leo's. Much like the other alternative theory it's probably not canon. But it feels like something Riordan had up his sleeve as a potential solution. Especially because the Seven really weren't sure if it was Percy or Jason.
