Shæ stepped out of the cabin for a breather. She stood on the steps, leaning against the railing and fingering her choker. She hummed a Big & Rich song her mother had on her computer. She missed her mom. if only there was a rainbow somewhere.

Seth dismissed her first statement since it wasn't exactly of importance to him she had changed her outfit, or how many times she had done so in a single day. He was amused by it really and figured that Nevea did so to try and appear "appropriately" for each situation she went to face. "Straight to the point then? Good."He was thankful that she wasn't the type to drag things out. After the long and vexing conversations he had had with the idiots in the Big House, Seth wasn't in any mood to talk with anyone else. Furthermore, he knew they should set up their defences fast.The Hephaestus cabin was hot, though that was expected seeing it belonged to children of the forge god. He allowed Nevea to start off the talk since it was her ice constructs they'd be using. With her finished, a kid named Trey responded and asked what kinds of things they'd be wanting to create, and that's when Seth did begin speaking."As I'm not sure Nevea's capable of producing an entire wall of ice around the entire camp in one go," he said as he spotted a map of the camp and placed it on a table, "My suggestion is that she and I form ice and crystal 'turrets' along the border. Let me show you."Small crystal formations began to rise on the map as Seth's magic energy condensed. They were blue and red to indicate that they'd be fusing their creations together. The exact places where the crystals formed where at the main entrances of the camp, and other separate mini constructs rose along places where monsters might try to breach for surprise attacks."With my crystals ensuring her ice has a greater chance of staying intact, they should have no problem in releasing a chilling aura to and from each other to create a pseudo barrier. The cold should ideally slow and weaken most of the monsters that try and get through, and deter any lesser monsters from even trying."Seth then remembered the mention of traps and weaponizing Nevea's ice. Since his crystals had the tendency to become volatile when fused with Hephestean creations (at least when they were fused in the first place by amateurs), using her ice would be safer."I'm sure you Hephaestus kids can rig up traps to place along the borders. However, my siblings and I can assist you in creating rune traps. As for Nevea's using ice... perhaps she should explain that part herself."


"Of course," she said, in return to his first statement. She was a very matter-of-fact and to-the-point person at times such as this, as she didn't like her time being wasted. That got annoying quickly. Especially now, when they needed to get the defences done.

As Seth began to explain his idea, she nodded. She had been thinking of turrets, she just hadn't found the word to explain her thoughts. What he was expression was close to how she'd thought it, and she quite well liked his plans. She waited for him to finish, nodding every now and then, and waiting for her turn to explain. When Seth gave her the table, she began.

"Besides the chilling effect that my ice constructs naturally make," she explained, "I can make them such that they'll freeze water vapour into ice shards. There won't need to be any fusing-" She looked at Seth. She had heard the conversation in the Big House, after all, and volatility was not an option. She looked back at the Hephaestus campers. "-of your[1] creations with mine, since from what I've heard, Seth's crystals don't exactly fuse well with your creations. I can make them such that you can put any mechanisms inside or outside. Rotation, firing, etcetera, etcetera." That would hopefully ensure that nothing would happen with Seth's crystals, no matter where they were.

[1]: She was, of course, talking about the Hephestan creations, not Seth's.

Angelo walked over to nevea and he hard about her idea for ice constructs for defense so Angelo though it would be a good idea to work with that. "Nevea, I'm Angelo from Zeus cabin and were trying to work on a defence for the camp to. My campers are more organized and are able to follow orders. My guys can set up a defensive perimeter until you can get those ice constructs in place then we can set up an alarm system if you feel we can work on this together" Angelo offered knowing that she didn't have the manpower needed to both defend and construct the defenses


Nevea listened to Angelo's proposition, and when he was finished, she nodded. "Go for it with the defence perimeter. And even after the constructs are done. Having turrets is no excuse for not having a proper camper defence, of course." She laughed lightly, a business laugh. Not something for jokes, just how one would laugh at a somewhat-humorous statement. "We can make this work if we work together."

Angelo nodded a little and gave a small smile to her business laugh once she was finished he stated "my campers are already on their way to guard the front gate, the water area, and the forest area since those are the most likely places they would try to attack from, we will have them stationed their while you get those constructs up and running. we will keep watch however my cabin isn't large enough to guard them effectively so they will need a few more bodies to help keep watch, we wont need a lot but if we want this to be done quicker I will need some campers to give my guys some extra eyes on the campsite. When your ice constructs are finished my brother and I had an idea for using salts on their torches to act as a relief signal in case the guards on patrol will need to rest and recuperate for a few hours before going on patrol again."

IC: "He wants to help, he's just ticked that he can't in the way he wants, which is to send an actual kid of Hecate with you- probably himself or me, to be honest. I'm Morning, by the way, if you don't know my name. My brother is far more infamous than I am."

She glanced at Val and grinned slightly. "And I'm not Señora Morning, chica, not for a long time yet."

Morning held out a gauntleted hand, palm up. "Let me see the crystal and I can tell you if he put anything nasty in it. Whether you trust me or not is up to you," she looked at Val for an instant. "But it won't hurt me through these."

Val laughed. "You are so unlike your brother chica. Sorry if I insulted either of you. I just didn't like it when he did that to my flames. They are supposed to be off limits to everyone but me." Val studied her gauntlets. "What are those made of?" She asked tilting her head a bit. She loved new inspirations like those.

Val nodded and put her stuff into her bag, putting on strap across her shoulder. "Sí. If we are to get it back quickly we must go now. Come on. Vámonos mí amigos. Lets get that fleece back." She stood up and walked out the door.

Shæ grabbed her shoulder bag, slipped it on her shoulder and led Ace ouside. She looked at Mr.D hopefully. "May I bring him?" She wanted him to say yes. She really wanted to keep him too. He was such a nice Pegasus.

"Woah, Mr. Dino, you've got to be kidding!" Vic spoke out, after Val left. 'They just said, "Hey. Here's a super easy tracking device'. What if the fleece isn't there? I know you hate the camp, but use some logic!"

For some reason, she started to fume. "Because, I hope you don't think my map would even bother working. It doesn't have a 'fleece' option, or a power button."

Val lay a hand on Vics shoulder. "Easy chica. Yes he hates the camp but why would he lead us astray? I dont think he'd want to get in trouble for destroying a whole camp of demigods do you? His children live here too. Why would he want to slay us all?" I reasoned.

Seth was pleased Nevea was also one to think ahead by further encouraging a demigod defense to accompany the constructs they'd be mentioned. He didn't laugh along of course, as he was never one to break the seriousness of his attitude around others. Oh, he had forgot to mention some of the other effects his crystals would produce, so he promptly did so as soon as Nevea finished explaining the effects of her ice.

"Almost forgot. I can grant my crystals additional effects to compliment the ice shards Nevea's ice will be creating. If you've heard the stories of what I can do with my magic, you should have a general idea of what I can channel through my own creations."

Angelo spoke up afterwards and talked about how he would need more bodies in order to have a more efficient team. Seth had a great idea for that: the children of Mars and Apollo. They were some of the best fighters and archers of the camp respectively, and the latter would definitely be good at spotting threats from far away.

"If you need more bodies," he told Angelo, "I recommend you speak to the Mars and Apollo children. I do specify Mars, as his children are known to be more disciplined and level-headed than those of his other aspect. Unless of course you know of any children of Ares that have surpassed their childish tendencies to show off, they'd be wise to bring along."

Michael walked back in to the cabin and picked up the Petrified Cube and opened the top by clicking a little plate on the side of the box, he handed it to Morning and looked at VIc. "Regardless of what she says... if you really have to you can take it but lt just doesn't seem right to me." Nothing was ever this easy. Michael waited to see what the group would decide. Also he couldn't help but listening to what Morning had to say, she didn't seem nearly as snooty as her brother.

Shay stood up his fists balled up "If i have to visit the old bastard I hate to keep him waiting." He said a scowl on his face "Now on how to get there are we taking a plane or walking because i would prefer not to walk." He looked to the group sighed "And we better hope my step mom is in otherwise he is not going to be in a talking mood with me." He disappeared and reappeared with a bag on his shoulder "I'm ready." Was all he said before he started walking away towards the boundaries of camp.

Nevea thought for a bit about the salt idea, trying to figure how exactly that would help as a relief signal. In a brief and nearly uncaught moment of insane thought, one in particular crossed her mind, that maybe whomever they sent the relief signal could taste the salt. This was utterly insane and disappeared moments after it came. Not being able to think of anything clear and slightly sane, she asked. "What, exactly, would salt do?" she asked, a slight hint of exasperation in her voice, the reason of which, if you didn't know the context, could not be understood.

Nevea nodded as Seth addressed them on the complement of her ice and his crystals, while a few thoughts about what they could do flashing through her mind before she continued to listen. She let out a barely-audible scoff at Seth's last comment, and then began to speak. "Once we're finished with this meeting, I suggest you gather Mars and Apollo immediately," she said. The author was careful not to use a redundant saidism, although he nearly put it in there just for kicks. "That way you can form a defence force as quickly as possible."

For a good length of the meeting, she had been running through ideas on how she and Seth could form the turrets such that the Hephestan creations needed not be fused in any way. She had found one very good one that would hopefully work well, and so she called for a paper and imparted her idea.

"Now, since, as I said before, we cannot fuse your creations with mine and Seth's, I've come up with a way to make your mechanisms separate, although still touching." She waved her hand and ice began to form on the paper to demonstrate. She first made the outlines of two shafts. The inner sides, that is, the sides that were nearer to each other, were touching, but the outer sides didn't touch, leaving a square with no outlines. "We can place the construct on some sort of rotating mechanism that will follow monsters."

She placed her finger to the shaft leading upwards. "Through this shaft, you can extend the mechanism to here-" she placed her finger on the non-existent square area. "-Where you can make the firing mechanism for the shards of ice that my constructs can form. And of course you can control this all from the rotation mechanism. My construct can form ice shards almost instantly, unless the humidity is rather low, in which case it'll take a bit to gather enough." She stopped here and waited to see if Seth would add anything.

Shay looked at Val "Oh, sorry" He told her trying on the cuffs and fiddling around with them "Fit like a dream." He smiled and activated them, they fitted to him very well "I appreciate you giving me these Val." He said then he quieted down again a determined look in his eyes his fists still clenched so hard his knuckles were turning white "Father, what are you planning." He thought to himself looking around at his comrades he steeled himself not showing any trace of emotion to his comrades.

Angelo sighed softly wondering how they didn't know about this "if a certain salt is burned then it changes color. Red torches their on watch and when salt is thrown into their torch it turns blue what did you think the salt would be for?"He asked a little curious on what she would think salt would be used for in terms of defense then Angelo realized that they were getting off track. "Keep in mind it's just an idea to use as a relief system different color torch would mean different things. By now my guys are already at the security points I mentioned earlier I just need to have one if my guys message the Apollo and mars campers to join and help us"

"Fires can burn different colors depending on the minerals thrown into them. Common table salt would just make it burn a different shade of orange, but if it carries different components the flame will change color as they react to the heat."

It was a good system, Seth supposed, but it did have the flaw that those using the salt would eventually run out of it if they were going to be using them every single time they were changing shifts. He had a solution to this though, and that was getting his half-siblings to produce mystical flames that would change color at a given command. One of their mother's symbols were twin torches after all, it would be shame if they couldn't do something as basic as that. Seth told the others about this and then listened as Nevea began telling the room of her design ideas.

"These will do," Seth said as he examined the miniature ice structures more closely. "They're pretty close to what I had in mind anyway."
The fact that they were was enough for Seth to feel assured the design would work well.

"Now, if the humidity does happen to be low enough to give the ice shard creation trouble, that's where my creations' effects will kick in. My crystals are just solidified magical energy, so they'll have no problem in releasing streams of this power to wound and kill, but if not, then they'll certainly leave behind detrimental effects on their targets."
