CALYPSO
Why do I feel like... Like Leo and I are drifting apart?
Every second here is a second closer to us getting back to our world, and I know I should be happy for Leo and that I can finally go back home after a few millennium, but I cannot picture myself at the - the camp that he so loves. I cannot picture myself "hanging out" with Jason and Piper, or joking around with Percy, or shooting arrows at targets. I cannot imagine what it is going to feel like when every demigod that I will meet will be scared of me. Jason and Percy are respected for being sons of the Big Three. Annabeth is asked for advice, because she is the daughter of Athena. Our parents carry a huge effect on who you are, in our world, and my father was regarded as a monster.
But he is my father.
In a book I read, someone once said that history is always written by the winners. The gods won the war. They wrote the history. I can't deny that my father may have done horrible things, but how about the gods? Did they not chain Prometheus to a rock to eternal torture, even though he gifted the humans with fire? Did they not shun the Titans' children, throw them into Tartarus... And me. They left me on an island away from time for all eternity, cursing me to have my heart broken every thousand years?
Leo doesn't have a fate like mine. I will always be Atlas's daughter. I will always have fought in the war on his side. I will always be the one who trapped Odysseus on my island - even though I did not trap him. He landed, just like Leo and Percy and all the others, and I fell in love with him. He was the first one out of a long line of heroes who dropped out of the sky. And that first time, I truly believed that I could start again, that on that island, he would love me too. Without knowing who my father was.
But of course, he could never stay. None of them ever could - but Leo finally came, and when he did, I was too overcome by gratitude and longing to finally be with somebody to really think about it.
Ogygia was heaven, for anyone who ever visited, and for a reason. You could escape from any burden that you had, you could finally get away from the demons you had. But the heroes I met always had another purpose, friends, family, a life to get back to. But for me, I have none of these. No purpose, outside of Ogygia. No friends, except for Leo. Yes, I have a family, but one that will alienate me from the rest of the world. My life ended thousands of years ago, when I was banished to my prison forever.
Is it wrong to wish that I could be back there?
Everything in Kelly's world is so... Different. Fast, blinding, easy... Ogygia was very, very slow. Time passed differently.
Do I really, really want to go back?
