Yes. You read that right. Greece has fallen...or at least the camp that has catered to Greek demigods for over three millennia has fallen. Camp Half-Blood had a traitor in their midst. A traitor with powerful allies who quickly burned the camp to the ground. Some were lost, some killed, and the rest who remained began the long trek across the country to the only place where they might be safe: Camp Jupiter.
Chiron banded what campers they had left, told them of the other camp and sent word to Camp Jupiter pleading for shelter. Chaos now threatens the camp daily with the arrival of new Greek campers to this foreign camp. This camp with strange customs and rules. While on the Roman end the Praetors are forced to hold up a balancing act of providing sanctuary while also trying to find the traitor before their home suffers the same fate as Camp Half-Blood.
New alliances are forged, new enemies are made, and these two worlds have to find some way to work together for the future of them all. Which side are you on? Which position will you take? It's time to jump in the fray because Greece has fallen.

Focusing Morgan pulled the water from the bucket, a raging sphere shedding mass almost as quickly as the very moisture from the air cooled and joined it. The sphere grew as Morgan stood with her hands spread about a foot apart, fingers claw-like in the air and sweat dripping down her brow. She opened her eyes with the rage of the oceans burning within the warm brown as she reached one hand out towards another bucket of water as the demigods crowded around her, she turned her pal up to the sky and pulled upon the water within as her muscles trembled. She pulled upon her father’s might even as her knees began to give out beneath the strain, drawing the other sphere in close and forcing the two together. The salt within the second sphere brought her strength as the oceans would always bring her strength, even just a drop could rejuvenate her and so as the spheres merged she stood up straighter. Prouder.
This display of power was simply for one reason; to display the might of the First Cohort. She took every opportunity to prove her worth and weight, Displaying her prowess and her own power to prove to those first wandering the path of the Legionnaire. To show them what they might be, one day. She took a step forwards and drew the water out into a flat, blade-like disk and twisting her neck, jaw toward the sky, she pushed her power out with a snarl spittle flying from her mouth and the water froze. Spinning like a blade, a blade of pure and clear ice. She turned the disk with her hands and then it split into four equal segments but before she could throw it outwards the water melted and crashed into the ground with a whoosh.
Faltering Morgan took one step forwards then she stumbled, falling to one knee with her breath heaving.
She let her hand hit the floor holding her up even as the demigods around her cheered, some taking to displaying their own gifts and others crowding around them as they did. Morgan closed her eyes and pulled upon the moisture in the ground, watching the salt water trickle through the grass towards her and feeling it wrap around her arm restoring even just a little of her strength. Enough to stand. She would need to push harder and harder until none of her half-brothers and half-sisters could match her, then beyond, to achieve what she truly desired but this display of might and discipline was a step she proudly took especially to do it in front of such a crowd upon her first attempt.
[attr="class","THREAD1BLTAG"]445 WORDS @hayana's third of many
[attr="class","THREAD1CONTENT"] He couldn’t count the number of times the son of Mars had wanted to slap the hilt of his sword against a Greek’s head for messing up a simple move. They had no formation, no discipline, and the worst was they continued hesitating as they fought against the Romans. They were slashing instead of stabbing, failing in finding an opening in the armor. He snickered at a Graecus before nodding at his Roman opponent to finish it. Show mercy. Maybe. It was a sad thing to watch. And at some point, he couldn’t stand looking at their miserable faces anymore.
Squeezing his calves softly he signaled his horse to move and so it backed away from the group to walk towards another. Dareios was overseeing today’s training, something he hadn’t done in a while, simply because the Greeks brought so much work with them that he just didn’t have the time for his regular schedule. Even though the two Praetors split the work between them it was still a lot. It was easy to blame the Greeks for all of it - or at least most of it. He couldn't wait to be rid of them again but he knew that it was wishful thinking for the time being. There was no getting rid of them until the far future.
As he wandered around the field, golden armor glistening in the sunlight, he watched one sparring match after another but none caught his attention until his cold gaze fell upon a legionnaire of the first cohort, his own cohort before he became Praetor of the legion, and he watched her displaying her abilities and strength. He watched her manipulate the water, shift and shape it, moving it around with little to no effort. Dareios had always been awestruck whenever he watched Morrigan use her powers. He wasn’t jealous or offended that he wasn’t capable of doing so as he had powers of his own. They might be different from those but he could easily match them. As a proud son of Mars, he wouldn't think otherwise even if proven the opposite.
Dareios maneuvered his horse around a group of training legionnaires as he approached the daughter of Neptune. The legionnaires who had gathered around her to watch parted so he could pass through to the front. He looked down from the back of his horse, clapping in approval of her skills to some extent. "Great show but what we need are responsible soldiers, not reckless heroes who don’t know when to stop."
And as the crowds parted Morgan watched the praetor warily, unsteady on her feet with sweat trickling down her spine. Every time she pushed herself she got a little bit better at controlling her power, she could draw upon the water for longer and one day she hoped that she could unleash the truly devastating power lurking just below the surface. All in good time. The applause was short lived in reality as he levelled a criticism that might have been fair any other day when she pushed herself recklessly, not today though. She had a plan and the moment she could push her gifts again she would because like muscles her gifts would grow, strengthen and she could build up her tolerance. She smiled wearily as she spoke “And yet like a muscle if I push my limits I grow stronger, just a year ago I could barely pull the water from the air and now I can freeze it within your lungs,” but she paused trying to hide the exhaustion as she levelled her withering gaze upon the throng of demigods around them “It seems like my audience misunderstood the purpose of my… show of force. After all, I am supposed to be training and that’s what I was doing,”
She could feel the numbness in her fingers, ever present whenever she used her gifts just like she could feel the heat on her skin from the scant rays of sunlight. The stronger she got the more she felt the effects of her powers, the affinity for the cold, the sensitivity to light, to heat and all of it impacted her more and more day by day. She would shoulder the burdens that came with her gifts if it made her stronger, let her shoulder more for the Legion and protect her brothers and sisters in arms. Even when the sun burned her skin and made her wince, barely able to see, she would shoulder that burden with pride. One day she might get to meet her father in person if she proved her worth, one day.
She took a shaky breath forcing a smile “I assure you I know my limits and I know how hard to push. Unfortunately I have to push to get stronger and the stronger my gifts the more I can support the Legion, no?”
