Chapter Summary:
With the help of Percy Jackson, who arrives just in time, and the other campers, Apollo enchants an arrow with a plague and shoots the Colossus in the ear. The infected Colossus sneezes his head off and dies. Apollo relays his prophecy to Rachel and Percy. Apollo believes the next Oracle he has to seek and protect is the Oracle of Trophonius. Percy decodes that Apollo’s companion on the quest will be the demigod Leo Valdez, the son of Hephaestus, Roman god of machines. As if on cue, Leo flies into the camp on his metal dragon Festus, with the nymph Calypso in mortal form in tow. Apollo, Leo, and Calypso form an alliance and decide to search for the next Oracle in Indiana, as per the grove’s direction, setting up the stage for The Dark Prophecy, book two of the series.

Return to Camp Half-Blood is an independent podcast by Brayden Stallman, Niamh Sherlock, and Ava Pirie. Each week these friends from college dive deep into the books of the Percy Jackson universe by Rick Riordan, starting with Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Heroes of Olympus, and now Trials of Apollo. While analyzing each set of chapters, the trio takes an english class approach while diving into how this effects their lives, relates to pop culture, and means about its relationship to literature and the Greek classics.
