Chapter 41 Summary
The cab stops and Leo sees that the earth has become sticky, due to Gaea’s influence. They walk up to a depression in the mountain and find the 30-foot-tall giant Enceladus. They agree that Hedge, Leo, and Jason will distract the giant while Piper frees her father. Leo has an idea and reaches for a small mechanical toy he began building on the walk up.
Chapter 42 Summary
Enceladus breathes fire on the demigods. He spots Piper almost immediately and tries to convince her to betray her friends. Then, he raises ogres, the Earthborn, from the earth. Jason makes eye contact with his friends, and they develop a new game plan. A fight breaks out, and Leo uses nearby construction equipment to shatter the Earthborn. In a moment of panic, he calls on his father, and Hephaestus comes to his aid. Piper frees her father and joins the fight.
Chapter 43 Summary
Jason’s instincts take over, and he begins to fight Enceladus. The giant knows him, and calls him, “‘the mighty Jason Grace […] the one who led the assault on Mount Othrys. The one who single-handedly slew the Titan Krios and toppled the black throne’” (462).
