#love rick riordan but whyyyyyyy

[sammy-bammy]

I am a big Percy Jackson fan but one thing always annoyed me about the big prophesy

A half-blood of the eldest gods,

Shall reach sixteen against all odds.

And see the world in endless sleep,

A hero's soul, cursed blade shall reap.

A single choice shall end his days,

Olympus to preserve or raze.

do you notice how they say "eldest gods". Everyone assumes it is about one of the children of the "big three" (Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon). They are not the only "eldest gods" around. If you think about it, this could also be about Demeter! (Hera and Hestia are both unable to get half-blood children, Hera can't cheat and Hestia is a maiden goddess who made a vow of chastity.) And there is more, Aphrodite is the oldest god! She was a child of Uranus (something explained in Heroes of Olympus). So why wasn't Silena Beauregard not the one in the prophesy??? She was 16 17ish when she died!!!!!

So they could've said big three, oldest brothers, etc.
