Disclaimer: I don't own either Percy Jackson or The Elder Scrolls

AN: Sorry for the lack of updates on this story..or even my other one if any of you read it. I had a busy week and then the holiday occurred so not much time for writing but ideally I can get back to my normal updating schedule. Anyway to make it up I made this chapter much longer than normal and tried a (hopefully) more reader friendly style of writing.

Annabeth was awoken by the suns rays slamming into her eyes annoying her immensely. She stayed in her bed till the events of yesterday came back to her. Greek myths were real, and her and her sister were demigods...that and her dad did something not physically possible and threw a massive garbage container like a frisbee into the hellhound that attempted to kill her and katie.

"Dad has some massive explaining to do." Annabeth mumbled to herself as she got up and got dressed. It was a Sunday so neither Katie or her had school so there was no excuse for her dad to avoid any topics in regards to time management and she would not relent in any regard with this. She and Katie always loved their dad telling stories about greek myths, granted he told them all kinds of myths, ranging from Greek to Egyptian, even some Norse every now and again. So to say she was interested in finding out about this new realization was an understatement.

After going through her morning routine Annabeth went to see if her younger sister had woken up yet. Seeing that Katie was, in fact still asleep, Annabeth took it upon herself to wake her in a very sisterly manner. By flipping her out of the bed.

"Ow! What the heck Annabeth!" Katie yelled at her sister. Really was a 'get up' so hard to say? Oh wait..there is a demon in the house!

"Annie! Have you scene that massive demon in the house?!" Katie yelled at Annabeth. That thing was a problem that needed addressing. Though from the confused look her sister gave her she took it that the answer was a no.

"What demon? You mean another monster right?" Annabeth asked. If a monster snuck in at night why didn't it devour them?

"Monster, yes. Though it wasn't like any I had ever heard of. It was big, looked like a red human with horns, wore black spiky armor, had a massive sword, and….it talked to me." Katie said the last part with a sense of realization. That creature had said it and other were charged to protect her and Annabeth...that raised so many more questions than the two already had. One of which being who ordered the monster to protect them?

"Hmmm, that doesn't sound like any monster I've read about. Strange." Annabeth mumbled and adopted a thinking look. The description Katie gave was not something she had heard about in greek mythology. Maybe her dad knew, after all he was the one with the answers in regards to their monster related questions.

"Let's see if dad knows what it was, cause if it isn't here know and we are fine that means he dealt with it like the hellhound, right?" Annabeth asked her younger sister. Katie looked up at Annabeth from her position on the floor and nodded. That did make sense, especially since Annabeth was the know it all of the family...except in regards to plants that was her area of expertise. Their father, in a rare instance he talked about their mothers, mentioned how similar they were in terms of personality.

"Come on, dad should be in his room." Annabeth motioned to the hall. Katie gave her an annoyed look and said.

"Well let me change first little miss flippy." Annabeth stuck her tongue out at her sister and left the room.

"I'll be in the hall."

"You're making my bed you know!" Katie yelled out. Hey, Annie messed it up so she would fix it.

"As if!" Annabeth yelled back. Katie could be a little bossy sometimes, similarly to how she could have a problem with her hubris, but their dad did his best to help keep both of them under control in both respects. As her thoughts went to her father she wondered how he actually met her and Katies mothers. Since they are both demigods and her dad has said they don't share mothers, that meant that he had met, and had an affair with, two goddesses. Though one thing she did wonder was that her dad has always had a scandinavian sense to him so how did he react to the greek goddesses? It would be one of the many things she grilled him on.

Annabeth was drawn out of her thoughts when Katie walked into the hall wearing a Rainforest Cafe shirt she bought when they were there on vacation in Orlando one year. Her dad was actually very well off for someone who had a day job as a craftsman, at least in regards to how much he actually makes product wise. She never really questioned it until now but where did he get all the money he had? Especially since he is a single father with two kids in New York city. Well one more thing to interrogate him on.

"well lets go." Katie told Annabeth as they both began to make their way to their fathers room. When they arrived there however their dads room was...different than normal. Different as in the back half of the wall was opened up and led to a spiraling stone staircase lit up by floating balls of light. Now to say Annabeth and Katie were curious would be an understatement, not only was that never there before, but it looked...not of this world. Both sisters looked at each other in a confused expression, each wondering if the other knew about this.

"Sooo, umm there is a massive stairway there." Katie eventually said with Annabeth nodding along.

"Should we go down?" Annabeth asked her sister. She didn't see her dad anywhere, so it was an assumption that he was down there.

"Uhh….sure." Katie replied not so certain in the intelligence of walking into something their dad had hidden. As the two proceeded down the stairs they stopped when they heard talking. One voice was obviously their dad due to sheer deepness and tone of the voice, the other two sounded female but they couldn't make out the words that they were saying. Then they saw a flash of bright light reflect off the wall and rushed to see the source. However, as soon as the room at the bottom came into view they halted in their tracks.

The room looked like something that would be seen in either a Doctor Strange comic or a Harry Potter movie. There were books lining massive shelfs, a garden of plants neither had ever seen, a metal door that led somewhere else on the back wall, and in the middle sitting on a very fancy wooden lounge chair surrounded by books and bits of paper was their father.

"Good morning girls. Sleep well?" Njal asked as he saw his daughters descend down the staircase. The girls mothers had just left too. Shame really, he never had the fortune of knowing either of his parents so he really wished the girls could one day have a chance at meeting their moms, a chance he never had. Those ancient laws were, in his mind, one of the stupidest things he had ever heard of. If the gods or goddesses has a child it is their responsibility and job to take care of them, this law just made it so they could laze away and only occasionally care for a demigod child or only use them for their convenience. However, he did know that some of the gods did always claim their children, Athena and Apollo were examples of that. Before he could continue further down this thought process Annabeth drew his attention.

"Dad…..what is this place?" She asked looking around the room with her gaze finally setting on the books. Katie had been drawn to the alchemic garden he had and seemed very interested in it aswell. Like mother, like daughter he guessed.

"This is my….inner sanctum so to speak. It holds relics, weapons, knowledge, life, and much more from my home world, Nirn." Njal spoke as his daughters looked shocked at the last part. Their dad had told them he was from Norway not….what ever Nirn was.

"Soooo you're an alien?" Katie hesitantly asked. Heck if she was part alien that would be awesome! Plus her dad kind of looked alien compared to most people. It was mostly the size strength, and look of him. A 7'1, 350 pound, red haired wolf like man tended to stick out alot. The writing on the tattoos didn't help either, really there was no way that those symbols were a language of Earth. Katie was drawn out of her conspiracy justifications when her dad started to laugh.

"Aye I guess in a sense I am an alien. Though not one from this dimension, so no spaceship I'm afraid. Though there are plenty of other means on getting to space if the people of my realm have shown." Njal spoke as he tried to calm his laughter. While Annabeth he could usually count on being like her mom and him in terms of thinking more rationally, Katie inherited his Nordic brashness and suspicion of the unknown….and rage don't forget the Nordic rage. One poor kid attempted to steal her and Annabeth's lunch money at school one day, and while Annie was fine with reporting to a teacher, Katie, may or may not, have smashed the kids teeth in with a punch to the face. Demeter's children may not normally be violent but Nord kids sure as hell were. That didn't mean Annabeth didn't get some of his violent tendencies however. No as her poor friend Percy witnessed when they were targeted by the kid Katie had punched's older brother, you hurt her friends or family, she breaks your legs….quite violently.

"Not this dimension?" The smart and now revealed violent Annabeth asked. So her dad was from another dimension? Awesome! She wondered what knowledge was brought from there.

Looking around she saw a black book that seemed like the Necronomicon from that movie her and Katie watched….not with her father's knowledge mind you. As she reached to grab the book it flew away from her and into her dad's open hand. Wait, what?

"You know your mother tried to look at the same book. What about this is so attractive to you that you're like "Oh book that looks like its from the ninth level of hell? Sign me up."." Njal asked as he stared at Annabeth who at first looked sheepish, untill the comment about her mom registered.

"Mom was here! When?!" Annabeth yell/asked her dad. She had never seen her mom and from the few times her dad mentioned her she sounded just like her. Minus the dark hair though, wait if her mom had dark hair and her dad was a redhead why was she blonde? Katie had red hair and her mom was also dark haired, so what the heck? One more thing to ask.

"Her and Katies mother were both just here and left. That golden flash that you two came running after was them." Njal said as both Katie and Annabeth looked down reden at the fact they both just missed meeting their moms for the first time. The sight made Njal even more upset at the rules the Olympians followed. He could swear that these rules would end up biting them in the ass on day, and it would not be a small bite.

"Hey now, chins up. It's not that they don't want to see you, it's just that well...the rules for them say they can't." He tried explaining, though it didn't help.

"Those rules stink." Katie and Annabeth mumbled together with Katie being the more visually upset. She wanted to see her mom so badly. Her and Annabeth often dreamt about meeting their mothers and talked about what they did in the dreams together as a family. Granted neither really considered how having two women and one guy married was mostly either taboo or illegal, but hey they could dream.

"Aye, that they do." Njal somberly agreed with his daughters. While he may not agree with all of the things the two goddesses have done, he did love them and truly did miss them. Breaking from that train of thought Njal tried to get the second integration of the day over with. Demeter and Athena had mostly asked questions more related to his person and who he really was. This time however he had to, once more, explain the entire existance of his realm and how it worked.

"But enough of that. Come and sit, I'll answer whatever questions you got and then hopefully we can begin to train you two on how to protect yourselves." Njal stated and motioned to the other seats in the room. Katie sat on a couch to his right, and Annabeth a chair to his left. With a quick look at his two girls he smiled and began to inform them on what was what.

Up on Olympus

Athena and Demeter both had just teleported back to Olympus from Njal's house and decided to unwind together. After the things Njal had told them they needed to just relax anyways. Deciding to head to Athena's Library Esque temple they both sat down in the lounge area.

" I-I really don't know how to respond to...well most of that." Demeter spoke and looked to her niece for any signs of a better response. She got none. Truth be told Athena was beating herself up over this whole revelation about Njal for various reasons. One being that she never sensed all the power Njal had, granted he had told her she was merely looking for the wrong thing and never could have guessed what to look for, but still. The second was that if he was going to train Annabeth and Katie how powerful would they become. Now neither she nor Demeter had any problems with Njal making the kids as strong as he could but other Olympians might view them as threats, especially if the could use magic.

"I don't really have an answer for you...this was not something I thought possible. In fact that whole room of his was nothing I had ever seen before, just the sheer feel of it reeked of this...magicka of his." Athena spoke to her aunt as they both sat in her temple and wondered what would come next in the world. Especially now sense, as Njal had told them, fate could not rule or control any of his actions. Little did Athena know however that with Njal being here the future the fates had woven had been, for lack of a better analogy, litten a flame by the Dragon of the North and a new was all but impossible to create without the dragon being there to destroy it in place of its own one. To say the world would change would be a gross understatement for what was to come in the near future.
