“Thalia, the cleaning Harpies know the ins and outs of the camp’s defenses better than most of us.” Annabeth explained with a frown. “Heck, they have information on the best of our fighters–!”
“Annie,” Thalia lowered the tabloid to level her with a pointed look. “Luke is leading the Titan Army. Any demigods that defected with him have the same, if not better, information.”
Annabeth crossed her arms as her eyes slid away. She knew, logically, that sort of information made sense. It was practical. Rational. Expected. Still, openly labeling Luke – their Luke – as the leader of the Titan’s Forces left a bad taste in her mouth. It was the one part of her mind, the mortal human part, that was too stubborn for her own good.
“I know.”
“So, why are we worried about these glorified birds?” Thalia asked dryly. Annabeth sighed and walked over to a desk she had her notes and files spread out on. She grabbed a packet set atop it and walked it back.
“I tried to condense it as best I could or find a work around, but...according to my findings and the records at Cabin Nine, most of our Celestial Bronze ore comes from deliveries the Harpies make in Hermes’ stead.” Annabeth explained as the older girl flipped through the paperwork. “I asked the Stolls if they could talk to Hermes on our behalf to iron out the discrepancy, but on top of his duties as Olympus’ Messenger, he’s working behind the scenes trying to get us leads on The Titans’ outposts to raid. It’s one such outpost that I think our Harpies are being held at.”
“So, basically, the Messenger God delegated, because he’s overworked? Damn, I wish I was more annoyed at how much that makes sense.” Thalia muttered as she scanned over the third page.
