please, I’ve been on my knees, change the prophecy. I’ve pleaded with the powers and their plans. poison blood from the wound of the pricked hand, still I dream of him. hear my lyrics, taste my venom, you are still my great obsession. and I’ll forgive you, but I’ll never forget. I will try forgiveness, but I will not forget. I’m pissed off you let me give you all that youth for free. he stole her youth and promised heaven. I got cursed like eve got bitten. men start wars yet troy hates helen. and I won’t confess that I waited, but I let the lamp burn. I could love you and wait til you��re ready.

REFLECTIONS. THE RISE AND FALL OF CAMP HALF BLOOD’S ORGINAL GOLDEN TRIO
“we were too close to the stars…”
Tumblr media
LUKE CASTELLAN. son of hermes, the traitor.
theme, OUTRUNNING KARMA by ALEC BENJAMIN. Outrunning karma, that boy | can’t run no farther, it’s the | last days of sparta, follow | him down to meet apollo | then he’ll brace for battle in the night | he’ll fight because he knows he cannot hide
Tumblr media
HELENA WINDSOR. daughter of aphrodite, the burned.
theme, THE HISTORY OF MAN by MAISIE PETERS. he stole her youth and promised heaven | the men start wars yet troy hates helen | women’s hearts are lethal weapons | did you hold mine and feel threatened?
Tumblr media
DOMINIC FAIRBANKS. son of demeter, the cursed.
theme, FRANCESCA by HOZIER I’d tell them, “put me back in it” | darling, I would do it again | if I could hold you for a minute | darling, I’d go through it again
•••
bound together by a twisted, invisible string, three demi-gods cannot escape their intertwined fate. A heart must break, a hero must fall from grace, and a curse must ruin them all…

Pearl, Gem, & Lizzie as The History of Man by Maisie Peters
Tale as old as honey
Pearl being created, surrounded by watchers
A moment everybody knows
The moment turning into the stainglass style of big moments 
Yeah, I'm sure there was heartbreak
Each of the victors standing in front of their glass
Inside the walls of Jericho
Zooms out to see the exterior of the Hall of Memories floating in the Void 
I couldn't believe it
Younger Pearl floating through the Void, staring down an elder Watcher
How you could just stop wanting me?
Being exiled to Evo
You burnt down Easter Island
Evo building up to the entering the End together
As if it wasn't sacred, as if it wasn't sacred to me
Being forced to fight the Dragon alone, floating in the Void alone
I've seen it, in the poems and the sands
Exiting the End, with the Watcher’s reading out how Grian joined them again, landing on an isolated beach
I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
Her finding her way back to the Void and convincing them to send her somewhere
I tried to rewrite it but I can't
Sitting in her tower, aware Grain had infiltrated the Empires Realm risking it all 
It's the history, the history of man
A portal opening and her getting access to the Hermit Realm
She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
Pearl working hard to figure things out, Sausage asleep nearby
She begs him, he says he doesn't understand
Pearl’s “death” in the Empires Realm and King Sasuage’s death 
She loves him, more than anyone ever has in the history, the history of man
Saint Pearlo being founded 
It's the history of man (yep)
Sausage of Santuary dedicating his life to Saint Pearlo
You didn't even falter
Gem looking at Fwhip after he destroyed the Empires Realm
Didn't look back once, did you?
Escaping with him, only to take a portal one day and not return herself
So Samson blamed Delilah, but given half the chance I
Gem watching all the Hermits having these strange pre-determined friendships no one can’t even explain
I would have made him weaker too
Her looking at Pearl and feeling that unexplainable friendship 
Sirens sounded, trumpets blaring
GeminiSlay being titled, fight scenes and whatnot
You walked out oh, without sweating
Spinning around Gem altering forms, unknowingly teleporting most nights
I've seen it, in the poems and the sands
Gem landing in Secret Life feeling something off
I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
Gem unknowingly picking a former victor and a runner-up place for her team
I tried to rewrite it but I can't
Her staring confused at her gibberish spellbook next to her secret book
It's the history, the history of man
She fiddles with the Watcher charm Pearl gave her while staring at the secret keeper
She stays up, he's sleeping like a lamb
Gem staying over at Etho’s, questioning why something feels wrong about him being her brother
She begs him, he says he doesn't understand
She her charm symbol scratched into Scar’s floor and asks but he won’t tell 
She loves him more than anyone ever has in the history (history)
Images flickering between Fwhip and Etho
The history of man
Gem lingering in portals longer than safe
He stole her youth and promised heaven
Pearl fighting with the Watchers 
The men start wars yet Troy hates Helen
Grian get punished with being in charge of the Death Games, but still Pearl gets the short end of the stick
Women's hearts are lethal weapons
Gem going through the effects of the Boogieman Curse
Did you hold mine and feel threatened?
Her kneeling bloody in front of Pearl 
Hear my lyrics, taste my venom
Gem floating through the void and losing her memory again
You are still my great obsession
Gem finding Pearl and staying close to her
I've seen it, in the poems and the sands
Lizzie washing up on the beach in Empires Realm as the Ocean Queen
I've pleaded, with the powers and their plans
Lizzie falling through the Void after dying, meeting the watchers
I tried to rewrite it but I can't
Flashes of Jimmy dying soon after
It's the history (history), the history of man
Lizzie trying to hold onto her memories as they flash before her
I stay up, you're sleeping like a lamb
Lizzie waking up in SOS Realm [there may not be lore, but there is always lore]
I beg you and you don't understand
She tries to explain it to Joel but his memories are too blocked
I hold on, I try to hold your hand
Them holding hands but Joel looking distant
I save you a seat, and then you say you wanna stand
She watches him as he mindlessly portal jumps
So you'll lose me, the best you'll ever have
Lizzie sitting alone on SOS Realm
It's the history, the history of man
Flashes to Pearl and Gem feeling like they are missing someone
