2nd Blog Post



In the book “Mark of Athena” by Rick Riordan, Annabeth Chase the daughter of Athena is sent on a quest with 6 other demigods each on their own quest. The 6 demigods are Percy, Piper, Frank, Hazel, Leo and Jason.  After Leo goes crazy and burns New Rome the seven flee to Rome to complete their quest.  Annabeth is on the most dangerous one because if she dies the world will fall.  Annabeth is conflicted between saving the world or saving herself.  In the beginning Annabeth was reluctant about completing her quest alone knowing that the others are completing their quests together but then she feels determined to save the world and succeed where her other siblings failed.




One way Annabeth is feeling reluctant about going on her quest alone is by this quote.  “Annabeth looked up one last time at the top of the stairwell the sky was brilliant blue mortals would be enjoying the warm afternoon”.  This is basically showing how she is reluctant because she is looking at the sky knowing that if she goes to complete this quest she may never she may never see the sky again.  This also shows that she knows what is awaiting her and she needs to own up to it to save the world.

One way Annabeth owns up to succeeding this quest where her others failed is by not giving up.  “ I cant stop now I have to see Percy again”.  This shows she isn’t reluctant anymore because she has a broken ankle and she’s still determined to complete the quest.  Annabeth knows she may not be able to get out alive with a broken ankle but she is still going to succeed where her others failed and save the world.
To come to a close Annabeth felt like this wasn’t a task she can take up alone but at the end she realized that if she didn’t complete this task the world will be ruled by Gaea the evil earth goddess.  Annabeth is very strong for still going to complete the quest for the sake of the world because without her there wont be any world needing saving anymore.
