Adara Artedon doesn't belong in any world - not the gods', not the humans', and not the demigods'. But that's expected when she's the daughter of not only the all-powerful Poseidon, but the 'maiden' Artemis, too. To top it off, she doesn't even get the mercy of being a goddess. She's somehow still mortal - after all, gods don't have DNA.
So she travels the world, staying in each place for only a few days and hunting. But she's okay with it; she's found a home with in the wilderness, if it can be called a home when she has no permanent lodgings. But her peaceful life ends when she stumbles across Long Island, and discovers Camp Half-blood, the demigod camp. There, she feels strangely at home, but she doesn't get long to enjoy it.
Because Artemis' curse is coming into play, and Adara has a choice; spending her last few days in comfort, or revoking the curse.
But it's hardly a choice at all, because it's all or nothing, life or death.
Tempest Alexandrea Parker is not a simple person. Her life was a train wreck of secrets and lies.There was nobody in Alex's life to help her, until the truth finally spills.
...she is cursed.
The idea that she was the daughter of a greek goddess, and cursed as a child seems rather far fetched, and yet, here she was at Camp Half Blood, with a boat load of other kids with the same dilemma. When it gets to the point that Alex is looking at her insane life before camp as "the good ol' days", she tries everything in her power to shelter a certain guy named Leo Valdez from the ugly facts. With Leo constantly trying to help, for better or for worse, she must invoke in a quest to save the world from, well... herself.
If only she can escape this fate.
