The war is over,

And I couldn't be happier

But it is bittersweet

It's been a good few years

But this is the end,

My final goodbye

And I am sorry for that

I am so sorry

Through everything, all the quests and battles

Someone's always been there for me

Annabeth, Tyson, Grover, even Jason and the others of 'the 7'.

I've never had to face it on my own

I cannot even begin to explain how grateful I am for that

It's hard, knowing this is it

There is nothing else to be shared

Are the wars over for good?

Unfortunately no

But, hopefully, I'll be long gone by then

And it will be time for another group of demigods to take our places as 'heroes'

I wish them the best

But it's time for me to step down,

Let someone else have their time

That doesn't mean I'm not going to miss it

Miss the friends, support, quests

The dining hall, my cabin, campfire

And those stupid songs the Apollo kids like to make up on the spot

I'm going to miss it like crazy

But it's over for me

For now I'm going to go to college in New Rome,

Get a degree in gods know what

Maybe have a semi normal life

Marry Annabeth, get an apartment together,

Heck maybe even have kids

It's been a good run

But this is

Unfortunately

My last goodbye

Thank you for it all

I'm going to miss you

But you can do it

We've led you to this point

Now it's your turn to do it on your own

We all believe in you

You've seen our adventures,

Now let us see yours

Best wishes,

Percy Jackson
