A Seer receives a prophecy from an Oracle:

5 0 0
                                    

(In the Big House)
Dionysus/Mr.D:I knew it!I knew he was trouble since the beginning!As soon as Apollo and Poseidon announced his arrival,I said "Let's turn him in a dolphin"!But No!You wanted to let him in!
Chiron:Our purpose is to keep Half-Bloods safe.Turning children into dolphins is hardly an interpretation of that mission.
Dionysus/Mr.D:He wouldn't have that burden as a dolphin!Neither do us!
Percy Jackson:Sorry to interrupt,but,why is everyone acting as if being a seer was a bad thing?
Dionysus/Mr.D:Because it is!
Chiron:Mr.D!
Dionysus/Mr.D:No!He needs to know!
Jonah Hart:Know what?
Chiron:Percy,Jonah,the power of the prophecy is a really rare ability.Through it is common for Oracles to have that power.Demigods,specifically Apollo's children,on the other hand,is extremely uncommon to them to born with such power.Foresight is considered the most powerful ability a demigod could ever possess.It oftenly attracts the most dangerous monsters.
Grover Underwood:That explains the Antrophopage and the Katobleps.
Dionysus/Mr.D:In other words!Seers are the worst!And Why?!Because they're always troubled!
Dionysus/Mr.D:Always with their confusing visions of the future!Which they're only able to understand!As soon the damage is already done!
Chiron:Look at the boy,he's just a kid,it's not his fault he inherited such power.
Dionysus/Mr.D:You're right,it's not his fault...It's Apollo's fault!...and Percy's!
Percy:What?!
Dionysus/Mr.D:Camp Half-Blood was in peace without any new great prophecy!Until you brought Apollo's clairevoyant child into camp!
Percy:In my defense!Apollo only said his child would inherit a "rare" power!He never said specifically which!
(Percy,Chiron and Dionysus/Mr.D start arguing)
Jonah:(screaming)Φάε! Είσαι παντελόνι!
Percy,Chiron and Dionysus/Mr.D: ...
Jonah:Woah...that Ancient Greek lesson was totally worth it...
Micah Salazar: ...You said "eat your pants"?
Chiron:Jonah,you're the 1st seer in Camp Half-Blood in many years.No other child of Apollo had shown signs of having the power of seeing the future for a long time.Now,tell us,what did you saw?...
Jonah:Um...I remember I saw an underground cave...the ground was breaking and...there was fire getting out of it...then there was this voice that said..."Ephimetheus"
Chiron:Ephimetheus!
Dionysus/Mr.D:Like I said!Troubled!
Percy:Ephimetheus?That's...?
Chiron:Prometheus's twin brother,who was locked by the Olympians after he helped his brother stole the Fire from Hestia.Jonah,if what you saw it's true,then it seems someone is plotting to free Ephimetheus from his prison.
Percy:If Ephimetheus is released,then...
Dionysus/Mr.D:Ephimetheus bowed to get revenge against the Olympians!He would go straight to Mount Olympus!Destroying everything and everyone who gets in his way!
Jonah:And how do we stop him?
Chiron:There's only one way...
Dionysus/Mr.D:(coughing)Dolphin!
Chiron:A better way
Chiron:We need a quest...
Percy and Jonah:A quest?!
Jonah:Wait?What is a quest?
Chiron:A quest is a important mission that a demigod is tasked to complete
Dionysus/Mr.D:You had the vision!Therefore!Stopping Ephimetheus from rising is your trouble now!
Jonah:What?!
Percy:Chiron,please,he's new at this demigod stuff.Give me the quest.I have years of experience.
Chiron:I'm sorry,Percy.I'm afraid that as a former camper,you can't be assigned a quest.
Dionysus/Mr.D:Besides,how many years it has been since your last quest?
Percy: ...
Dionysus/Mr.D:Exactly!
Jonah:Okay.I'll do it.
Chiron:Good.First thing's first,go to consult the Oracle.
Jonah:The Oracle?
Micah:As in the Oracle of Delphi!Duh!
Chiron:Go to her cave,next to the Canoe Lake.
Jonah:Okay...I will...
(Jonah leaves)

(Outside the Oracle's Cave)
Jonah:😬
(Jonah enters the Oracle's Cave)
(Jonah sees a hooded mysterious figure)
Jonah:Hello?
(The hooded mysterious figure turns)
(Jonah jumps scared and screams)
(The hooded mysterious figure starts laughing)
Jonah:Ah?!
Rachel Elizabeth Dare:(unhooding)Sorry,I didn't meant to scare you.
Rachel:(shaking hands with Jonah)I'm Rachel Elizabeth Dare,the current Oracle of Delphi.
Jonah:(shaking hands with Rachel)I'm Jonah Hart,son of Apollo.
Rachel:A son of Apollo?No way!The Oracle is speaker of the prophecies of Apollo!
Jonah:Well,I'm also a seer,so...
Rachel:A seer!That's cool!I've never meet another seer before!Netherless a seer demigod!
Rachel:But...anyway,you didn't come here just to get to know me,didn't you?
Rachel:(extending her hand)Now,approach child of Apollo and face your destiny...
(Jonah grabs Rachel's hand)
Rachel:Before we start,one more thing....try to not freak out...
Jonah:Freak out about what?
Rachel:(with the Oracle of Delphi's voice)You shall go West and face the lord Of forethought
Jonah:Woah!
Rachel:(with the Oracle of Delphi's voice)You'll get advice from a woman that in wars has fought
Rachel:(with the Oracle of Delphi's voice)The Titan of Afterthought will rise from beneath
Rachel:(with the Oracle of Delphi's voice)You will fail unless you use the power of the sun underneath
Rachel:So,what do you think of your 1st prophecy?
Jonah:😳...I have lots of questions right now...
