Hi. Umm… so… Please don't kill me. That would be nice. I'm super sorry for not updating sooner. I have a lot of reasons, most of them I really don't want to write, but I'll just say that July through now has been super busy. I hope you can forgive me!

On a brighter note, the 5th book in the HoO series is coming out in-what? 2-3 days? So, what I have to say about that is simply, dsflsdljfsldfjsdjflsdjflsjflsjdlfjsljfajbfwentlkrlnflnaslfnalimsofreakingexcitedicanhardlybreatheandmysmilemusclewontrelaxehehehhehehehhehehhheeeeeeeesljfsldjflsjdfljsdflsjfd.

Anyway, thank you all for sending in your letters! I'll try to get to as many of them as I can, but I'll just remind you ('cause it's been a while) that I don't reply to repeats or replies to replies. Thanks!

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters, plots, etc. All rights go to Mr. Riordan. I'm sorry I couldn't come up with a witty and funny disclaimer. I'm pooped. :-/

SO! Let us begin!

Dear Percy,

on a scale of one to ten, how creepy is Nico?

-Some

Dear Some,

Well, aside from being the son of the death god and the "Ghost King", Nico's a great guy. Sure, he keeps his distance, has a short temper, blames me for his sister's death, absolutely hated me for a while, can raise the dead, summon ghosts, and- you know what? I think that I'll go with a 9.

-Percy Jackson

Dear Lou Ellen,

Do you go to Hogwarts?

-AnnaDaughterofDemeter

Dear AnnaDaughterofDemeter,

I'm not sure Professor Dumbledore would want me to tell you.

-Lou Ellen

Dear Leo,

I LOVE YOU SO SO SO MUCH! Anyway, if you had to choose between keeping your fire powers for the rest of your life and having to constantly be next to Khione, or becoming a complete mortal but still living with Calypso on Ogygia, which would it be?

Love Forever, AnnaDaughterOfDemeter

Dear AnnaDaughterofDemeter,

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH! I LOVE ME, TOO! And about the other part, would saying that Calypso is the only magic I need be too much?

-Leo Valdez, The Super-Sized McShizzle

Dear Apollo

Could you open up a hunters group for boys? Just like Artemis? Tenx

-Bob

Dear Bob,

That would be real cool.

But I'd miss the real hot chicks.

I am so awesome.

-Apollo, the Master of Haikus

Dear Hestia,

You are my fave goddess ever, and I just want to know if you've ever broken your oath. I WON'T TELL! And if Zeus finds out, I'll blackmail him to shut up. I have some dirt on me. heh heh heh...

-MirroredMazes

Dear MirroredMazes,

My goodness! I never thought that anyone would- I didn't think that- good gracious! To answer that...shocking question, no, of course I have not broken my vow. Imagine what it would be like to be swallowed by your own father! When Zeus went around starting to swallow his wives, I was very afraid. I have no desire to have myself or my own children devoured! Though, there was one offense. It was very long ago. A very foolish drunkard decided to sneak up on me in my sleep! Thankfully, my siblings were able to catch him and punish him accordingly.

No, no. I'd much rather be single.

-Lady Hestia of the Hearth and Home

Dear Khione,

Do you have demigod children? If so, am I one of them? I took a quiz, and it said that I'm a daughter of Khione. Which makes sense, because my hands are always cold, I never really feel cold, and I LOVE snow and winter. Please tell me!

-MirroredMazes

MirroredMazes,

I think not! Never have I disgraced myself enough to interact with mere mortals in that way! We Boreads are much more sophisticated than that! Except for my very disappointing brothers, of course. They must get it from Father. For that reason, I quite really deserve the throne of the North Wind!

-Khione, goddess of snow, and the next ruler of the North Wind

P.S. Of course, when it comes to certain demigods, exceptions can be made.

Dear Will,

Do you at all, have like ANY feelings for Nyssa?

Just asking.

Yours so truly,

YOLOgirl

P.S, a little birdie told me that you're afraid of stitches.

Dear YOLOgirl,

Nyssa is a hard worker and a good person. She makes great things in the forges and has her heart in the right place and all, but no, I do not have any romantic feelings for her.

-Will Solace

P.S. I'm not afraid of getting stitches- I'm afraid of giving stitches. It's one of the few times where, in order to heal, I need to wound.

Dear Thalia,

I have always admired the hunters of Artemis. How do you recruit? Are you thinking about recruiting because I am a rather large follower of the hunters.

-Isabella Wilson

Dear Isabella Wilson,

I'm so glad that you're interested in joining us! Let me explain how recruiting works: so, on occasion we'll run into demigods on our journeys and hunts. We'll explain to them what they are (if they don't already know) and we'll invite them to join (only girls, of course). If they want to, great! If they don't, it sucks for them! If they accept, then we'll have them say their vows and them show them the ropes of everyday hunter life.

Sometimes, we'll make visits to Camp Half-Blood and advertise and such. So just keep an eye out for us. Currently, we're tracking a Chimera that's running amok New Jersey. If you see a news report about civilians chasing lions loose from the zoo, then that's us. Don't try to find us- we'll find you.

-Thalia, lieutenant of Lady Artemis

And that's a wrap. To the chapter! Not the story!

Anyway, thanks for all the support through reviews favoriting, and following. I really appreciate it. Thank you to all the contributors. I hope you keep contributing and sending in letters!
