  1. "Annabeth had wrestled with the same thought many times. She’d tried to
  2. convince herself Luke’s death wasn’t her fault. Luke had chosen his fate. Still…
  3. she didn’t know if his soul had found peace in the Underworld, or if he’d been
  4. reborn, or if he’d been washed into Tartarus because of his crimes. He might be
  5. one of the tortured voices flowing past right now.
  6. You murdered him! the river cried. Jump in and share his punishment!
  7. Percy gripped her arm. 'Don’t listen.'
  8. 'But—'
  9. 'I know.' His voice sounded as brittle as ice. 'They’re telling me the same
  10. stuff. I think…I think this moat must be the border of Night’s territory. If we get
  11. across, we should be okay. We’ll have to jump.'"

  15. "The children of Nyx had found them. Annabeth wrapped her arms around
  16. Percy’s neck. 'Go!'
  17. With her eyes closed, she could only guess how he managed it. Maybe he
  18. used the force of the river somehow. Maybe he was just scared out of his mind
  19. and charged with adrenaline. Percy leaped with more strength than she would
  20. have thought possible. They sailed through the air as the river churned and
  21. wailed below them, splashing Annabeth’s bare ankles with stinging brine."
