Dear Diary,

I don't want to be alive anymore. It has been weeks since my brother died in a war against my mother but I still can't forget. Nico told me keeping this diary will help me while Annabeth is in school and will help me to remember everything, but I don't see the point. All I can do is write about my week and that's all. No reactions. No comments. Just that. Athena says it's wise to keep a diary because it will help with my writing and memories, after so long I assume she must forgotten some of the most important days in her life. She's making me write once a week for a year! How can I remember to do that?

If you didn't know, which you don't because your only a blank book, I'm the "Golden Child" or whatever that means. Chiron says that it means that my DNA is special because I'm part god, but also part mortal(I have 2 mortal parents but the gods sent their power making me their kid too). If anyone took enough of my DNA and put it in a formula, they could become immortal. My mother did that but she went back because she completed her mission to kill either me or my brother Edmond(She killed Edmond :'( R.I.P) before she could become immortal. It was called an Elixir of Life, created by the Egyptians. They originally used gods blood but they realized they just needed godish "DNA" so they traveled everywhere until they found the spot easiest to find God DNA, which turned out to be the camp or those Egyptian people who were related to a pharaoh. I am in contact with the magician Amos so I call him when I'm studying for my Egyptian task in a few weeks using my Egyptian magic. I wonder how long my Greek task will take because I'm so excited!

I have magic from all the different types of gods out there(Titans an some monsters too) only because they felt like they had to be apart of the Golden Child process so that's what makes me a little bit of everything. But I am most connected to the moon and stars than everything else. My mother died giving birth to me and my brother (unfortunately she didn't STAY dead) but we almost died too. Being only babies, we couldn't handle so much power. The moon tied a bond with me and kept me alive, my brother was tied to the sun but his was later than mine so I always used to tease him about it.

It's time to take Gory out to fly so I guess I have to go. See ya next week!
