When I woke up, Magnus was laying on top of me. I wrapped my arms around her waist and she cuddled further into my chest. I just lay there, not wanting to wake her up. After a few minutes, she begins to stir. When she wakes up, she looks at me and says, "Good mourning." I replied with a kiss. Then Leonidas comes in bows and says, "Sir, the demigods request to speak with you." I ask him, "How many?" "All of them, sir." I look to him and say, "Gather them in the courtyard. I will address them there." Magnus and I got up and put on our dragon scale armor without the helmet. Once we were through, we walked out onto the balcony that overlooks the courtyard. I gave my commanders the signal to quite everyone down. I always leave how up to them. This time they decided to bang the but of their spears on the ground. Once everyone was silent, they stopped and Leonidas said, "Hail King Xylo, King of death and dragons." I look at him and when he sees my eyes, he knows he is in for an extra gruesome training session. I then address the demigods. I say, "Demigods, I will answer all your questions. Raise your hand and my second in command will bring you to the front. The first person was Kay. She asked, "When did this castle get here?" I looked at her and said, "A couple days ago." The next person to be brought forward was Brick. He said, "You should just give the castle over to me. I mean it's obvious that the better son of Hades should be the one with the castle." Magnus, my entire army including the commanders, mom, and I were laughing. Even my siblings, who had showed up just in time to hear that were laughing. When we finally stop he looks insulted and my siblings, Tartarus and Erebus, walked up to him and forced him to his knees. Tartarus said, "It would do you well to learn to hold your tongue when talking to your superiors before I rip it out." I then tell him, "Brothers, that's enough. I may be the youngest of our siblings, but remember I am also the strongest." Brick looks confused and asks, "More sons of Hades?" We all laugh at him again and I then say, "Brothers, time to introduce yourselves." A dark aura surrounds both of them and they say, "We are Tartarus and Erebus, sons of Chaos, Primordial of the pit and Primordial of Darkness." They both throw Brick over the wall into a haystack. The next question was, how we're siblings. I asked if anyone noticed I wasn't around recently and some did. I then told them of my quest and who my mother was.

After answering their questions, I told them they could leave or stay. The ones that stay, will either have to join the army, or do manual labor around the castle. As you probably guessed, most of them leave. The only ones who stayed were Inpu and Soren, the son of Typhon. They both join the army. Inpu's reason of staying was to be closer to his sister. Soren's reason was his father started sending monsters after him. Since Inpu was Magnus's brother, he go his own room. Soren got his own room because the barracks were full. One thing I should probably mention is that everyone in my army gets their own dragon. When I hand them eggs about the size of a two human heads, Inpu was confused, but Soren's eyes lit up. He then asked, "Are you serious? We get a dragon egg." When he says this Inpu says, "This is a dragon egg?" We all nod and I say, "Yes you get a dragon egg. It's pretty much standard issue. Everyone has one. Magnus and I share one we raised during the Roman Empire. It's sort of like it's our child. When they hatch they are about the size of a Corgi. They like to ride on your shoulder, so I would at least wear leather pauldrons at all times. Speaking of armor, time to get you some."

After getting them their standard issue equipment and rooms, I took them to Leonidas for training. I tell him, "I need you to train the rookies. Me and Magnus are leaving. Until I get back, your in charge. We'll be back soon." He nods and I get Magnus and leave. While at Camp Half Blood, I heard of another camp that was mainly Roman demigods. Percy recommended it as a date spot, so we're going. He said it was in California, so we're taking the dragon to get there. When I lead her to the dragon she asks, "Where are we going?" I tell her "It's a surprise." We then got on the dragon and fly away. After a while of flying, we start hovering in the air. We then look at a city and I say, "Welcome, to New Rome."
