(Annabeth's POV)
The night was beautiful, the stars were twinkling brightly overhead, wind whistling and making the tree leaves rustle. An occasional cat or squirrel passed by, and owls would be branching on nearby trees or rocks. It was calm, but too calm according to Annabeth.
Then a plume of white-hot flames erupted from the forest,

Percy: I bet that's Leo.
Leo: Hey! It's probably true, but hey!
Calypso: I agree with Percy.

the fire seemed to be far away but Annabeth could feel a strong wave of heat. Honestly, she was surprised that nothing near her had caught on fire. It seemed to be higher than any normal fire from the forges. The huntress pondered on this for a moment until a voice called out. "Annabeth!" A figure approached her, a lantern in one hand. "Hey, Piper!" Annabeth waved at her friend. "Did you see the fire?" Piper asked, her voice showing great amounts of curiosity and excitement. She nodded "Yeah, I did. It was weird right?" "But that's not why I'm here," Piper said, "Jason and Frank found a chest."
Annabeth felt a rush of excitement flood her body, could there be clues to find more monsters? Perhaps sirens or witches instead of the normal hellhound or cyclops? "Well? Let's go see what's inside!" She exclaimed.
The daughter of Athena followed Piper back to camp, where Jason and Frank sat on a log, a book on top of a wooden chest?
Okay sure, Annabeth loved books but she was really hoping for another weapon or maybe a pile of drachmas? Or you know, something that could actually prove useful as of the moment.
She felt guilt flood her body, maybe the book could help. Annabeth mentally apologized to the book.
The book was leather bound and it seemed to be decades or maybe centuries old, the title was stranger.
Legends of
Mitolohiya
—————
Jason: What kind of name is Mitolohiya?
Annabeth: I think it translates to Myth.
Nico: Legends of Myth? What kind of name is that.
Hazel: Put yourself in the author's shoes! I mean, if I were the author, I'd just find a word then make it into a different language!

"Legends of Mitolohiya." Piper murmured, her voice filled with wonder and curiosity.
Frank's face was the embodiment of confusion.
——————
Leo: Since when is it not? *laughs*
Frank: *scowls* Very funny Valdez.
Percy: I mean it's true most of the time.
Frank: Percy!
Percy: But it's true!
Annabeth: *rolls eyes* Let's just get back to the story.

"Mitolohiya?" He questioned "As in our kingdom? I don't remember any legends! Much less books that contain them!"
