*Reyna's pov*
"No problem. Now let's go. What could possibly go wrong?"

"This is your second time saying that."

"Let's just go."

"Reyna."

"Yes?"

"Please do not tell anybody that I'm claustrophobic."

"Oh. I won't."

  We stepped out of the elevator.

  Wow. Olympus is truly amazing. Annabeth really had overdone her job. This place is wonderfully magnificent and elaborately delicate. I can't think of more adjectives to use!

"Why are you here?" Jupiter said.

  We keeled in front of him. "Lord Jupiter. We had to deliver something to the person who works at the elevator. Chiron allowed us to visit here since I have never seen Olympus in real life."

"So are you asking for my permission to have a tour?"

"Yes, my king."

"Of course you will have my permission. You two did well transferring my daughter's statue across the world. There are no guides, so you would have to look around yourselves. Try not to die."

"Thank you, your majesty."

"Is there more names for Zeus?" Nico asked after getting the permission.

"What names?"

"My lord, my king, your majesty. You used three different ones."

"Do you need a guide?" It was Apollo.

"I would be very thankful, but you seem busy-"

"Okay then. I'll give you a tour."

"You could have just said "No"." Whispered Nico.

"Wanna hear a haiku?"

"No, thank you." I said.

"Anyway, this is Aphrodite's palace."

"Venus has her own palace?"

"Yes. Annabeth designed it for her. Well, she is the goddess of love, and Annabeth loves Perseus, you get what I mean?"

I nodded even though I didn't get it. I never thought someone could even thank Aphrodite. (No offense to Piper)

"...and there's our last stop, Athena-Minerva in your case-'s library. That's all. Oh, someone is praying for me. Gotta go. Bye!"

So the tour must have ended. I didn't pay much attention after Venus's palace. That's the start of the tour, so I didn't listen to Apollo through the whole tour, but never mind.

"You must be the Roman praetor and the son of Hades." Athena was in front of us.

  We kneeled.
"Um... yes your majesty." Said Nico. It sounded more like a question to me.

  "You can stand up. I just want to tell you that I'm very grateful of transporting the Athena Phaeton.(Sorry if I misspelled it)"

"No, Lady Athena. It was just returning what we have stolen."

  Athena looked amused. "Can you tell me the reason of your calling me Athena instead of my Roman name?"

"I heard that you prefer your Greek form. Athena is more, uh... powerful than Minerva."

"Well, I prepared you two a gift. It's a book, of course, but a special one."

"Thank you, your highness." I said.
