Percy glanced over. He saw the fallen giant and seemed to understand what was happening. He yelled something that was lost in the wind, probably: Go! Then he slammed Riptide into the ice at his feet.

Water shot from the chasms and crevices in the ice. As the wave hit, the back half of the camp crumbled. The entire edge of the glacier peeled away, cascading into the void-carrying buildings, ghosts, and Percy Jackson over the edge.

The blind stirred slightly, but all within was dim and unsubstantial. The birds sang their blank melody outside.

It broke down the walls of privilege and class, and in each generation it raised up ability from every rank and place.
