House Of Hades

Prompt: Summarize the story
Pages: 324-437

In the first few pages  of where I left off in my book two of the heroes, Percy and Annabeth were on their way to the doors of death in the worst part of the underworld called Tartarus.  That evil place is for the worst people like the Titans or slain monsters to reform.  Anyway, they were on their way with their  guide to the underworld, A TITAN!  Although this Titan, was a Titan who was a friend to Percy because he wiped his memory.  Of course the Titan did not remember this.  So on their way they were and they found this altar of Hermes, the messenger god.  The altar was directly liked to Hermes offerings that was coming through from their Camp Half Blood which was a camp for people like Percy and Annabeth.

So after they ate the food from the camp that was offered to Hermes.  After their meal, they continued their journey and had a fight with manifestations of the curses that were over their heads that all the defeated monsters cast on Percy.  Each time they killed one, the curse was unleashed.  Each Percy and Annabeth almost died from the fight with all the curses.  Although Annabeth was eventually fine, Percy was poisoned  with Gorgons blood, the worst poison known ever.  They took him to a giants hut in Tartarus and he healed Percy and gave them food and clothes.  After that they had to go to get a cloaking spell on them to shield them from the all monsters senses at the doors because there was going to be so many of them.  The lady who bestowed this on them turned on them and tried to kill them.

After a little ways journey, they came to their destination which was the Doors Of Death.  While they were there, they were scared so much if they didn't already look dead from the death mist, they would look dead from fright.  As they approached the center of the mob, a Titan stopped them to greet the Titan percy and Annabeth was traveling with.  They are brothers in fact, and the evil Titan was helping the friendly one recall the memories they had with each other.  When they were done they approached the doors of death and met two other Titans that they had to distract.

  1. I enjoyed how you gave example on which kind of people have been to Tartarus. You did a great job in summarizing the story and making sure not to give out too much information about the book. It was fun to learn about a new part of the Underworld which was the Doors of Death. Great Job in Summarizing the story-Abdiel
