no one talks about the missing Half-Blood, most definitely not around Chiron and Mr D.
but everyone knows of the missing Half-Blood, even after a whole century.

"So," I say, turning to Luke. "What's on tomorrow's schedule?"
Luke turns to me. "Sword-fighting in the afternoon."
I nod my head and go back to eating my food. It had been a really long day, Annabeth had me do ancient greek all morning, before I had to do outdoor activities. Which drained me.
I'm really looking forward to sleeping, once the entertainment of Apollo in the amphitheater is finished.
I think the Apollo kids were gonna do some songs from a century back, or something like it. I think it's about some cabin member that was lost or something. I'm not sure, not even the Apollo kids are sure.
I think they know something but not more then me or even Annabeth.
Once we're all almost finished, the Ares cabin fall silent. Which is odd, since the Ares cabin are the loudest of everyone. It's followed by the Apollo cabin and the Dionysus cabin.
They all seem to stare in the direction of the big house.
I turn around to look what they're staring at. Two blazing orbs of fire dance in the shadows of the trees.
Before two fire pits get set ablaze and it's a young girl standing between them. She has to be about my age, gold blonde hair like the Apollo cabin with clear blue eyes that seem to shine slightly in the dark.
She's very pale and skinny, with this wild look on her eyes and clothes torn at the edges. She looks beat down and like she had fought monsters to get here.
I turn to Chiron and Mr D, who seem in shock and ghostly pale.
Most of the campers seem frightened of the new arrival. It's not everyday that camper finds the camp on their own. Annabeth told me that most half-bloods arrive at camp by the guidance of a satyr.
She looks angry in the fire pit light, dirt and dried up blood is smeared over her face and stains her clothing. It looks like some kind of victorian outfit.
"Alyna." Chiron says in disbelief.
Chiron and Mr D get up and rush to her. The girl's knees buckle, and she crashes to the ground. The fire pit die out along with her, making it hard for everyone to see her.
I look over to Grover, who has a shocked look on his face. Along with the other satyrs. They don't seem shocked like the rest of the campers. A look of disbelief is on their faces.
I meet eyes with Annabeth, she shrugs her shoulders. As if she's telling me, she doesn't have any answers either. Which is alarming, Annabeth knows almost everything.
"Do you guys know her?" I ask Luke.
Luke shakes his head. "No, Grover mentioned her name once, though."
