1. Preface

PREFACE

"On December 13th, 2009, Perseus "Percy" Jackson, Son of Poseidon and Hero of Olympus, disappeared from his summer home at Camp Half-Blood, a safe haven for those of godly parentage. His girlfriend, Annabeth Chase, daughter of Athena, initiated a series of search groups to find the lost hero, in the hopes that he would be found and reunited with his friends and family.

"It was not to be so.

"On December 16th, 2009, new information was discovered in the form of three demigods: Piper McLean, daughter of Aphrodite; Leo Valdez, son of Hephaestus; and Jason Grace, Roman son of Jupiter, though he was plagued with Amnesia and could not remember his heritage. The three friends set out on a quest to release Hera, Queen of the Heavens from an Earthly prison created by Gaia, Primordial of the Earth. The quest was a success, and Jason, now Champion of Hera and Juno, rediscovered his Roman Heritage, and returned to Camp Half-Blood with his friends.

"However, Jason's Roman heritage was not the only thing discovered. Hera and Juno, two faces of the same entity, were aware of the return of Gaia, and placing faith in an ancient prophecy, dubbed the "Prophecy of Eight," executed a plan to unite Greek and Roman demigods to face the new threat. In October of 2009, they had kidnapped Jason Grace from Camp Jupiter, the Roman equivalent to Camp Half-Blood, and erased his memories so that he would be trusted by the Greeks.

"The same was done to young Percy Jackson, who lay in slumber. The plan set by Hera and Juno was for him to awaken in April of 2010 at the Wolf House, the sacred place where Lupa, the Mother of Rome, made her home and trained Roman demigods, so that he would be trained by the Wolf goddess and learn the ways of the Legion.

"However, some things are not meant to go according to plan, for as they say, the best of plans will never survive first contact with the enemy. And so our heroes were forced down a path of blood, darkness and sorrow, with no light at the end of the tunnel, their only hope lying in the mysterious words and visions granted by ancient artifacts of power, artifacts created and written in the blood of gods.

"But the night it darkest before the dawn. Love blossoms, power taints, and friendships are forged in an unforgettable journey…

"The Trilogy of Blood begins."

A smile curves over purple-colored lips and a pale face as a witch closes the blood-stained cover of the book placed on a golden pedestal. Turning away, she laughs, walking away into the darkness. "Oh, I do so enjoy my games…

"Especially when people die."
