THE THREE FATES THEMSELVES TOOK LUKE'S BODY.
This was the first time Zola had ever seen one of them before and she found them plain creepy. They creeped her out even more when her life literally flashed before her eyes as one of them turned towards her.
She was a young adult. Then a middle aged woman. The she saw herself old. Then her heart stopped when she saw her own tombstone being lowered into the ground. This all happened in the space of one second.
The fates gathered up Luke's body, now wrapped in a white-and-green shroud and began carrying it out of the throne room.
"Wait", Hermes said.
Hermes was dressed in a nice but classic outfit — greek robes, sandals, helmet, the whole shabang. His snakes were curled around his caduceus muttering..
Poor...poor Luke.
When Hermes reached his son, he unwrapped his shroud and kissed his forehead muttering a small blessing of some kind.
"Farewell", Hermes whispered before he nodded off to the fates to take his son away not the beyond.
Next to Zola, Annabeth suddenly buckled, also grabbing Zola's horrible shoulder causing them both to go down, in pain..
"They need help!", Zola heard Percy yell as she felt herself slowly slipping out of consciousness.

Conch Horns blew jolting Zola up from her peaceful sleep. As she sat up from the bed, the memories of what had happened came flooding back into her head.
Zola curiously flexed her shoulders and nothing happened, no pain. It just felt....normal.
"You're up!", a voice said.
"Will?", Zola asked as her eyes adjusted to the light.
"Um, no. His dad".
Zola jumped, literally. "Hi..um Mr Apollo...sir?"
"Apollo is fine", he said with a pearly grin. "Now that you are up we may join the council meeting it is just about to begin soon you see".
Zola nodded slowly with a small smile.
"Oh wait, I have the perfect haiku for this moment", he cleared his throat. "Heroes-".
"Um..Apollo can we just go back. I'd honestly love to hear the haiku later of course but..", she trailed off.
"Of course, of course", Apollo said his eyes twinkling. "Follow me".
Zola followed Apollo around Olympus and soon they were behind the broken doors to the throne room.
They both walked through. Zola realised that Zeus was talking to everyone about the bravery of the Gods, etc. Apollo gave her a wink and quickly slipped into his thrown seat meanwhile Zola quietly walked in and stood next to Percy.
