The Council agrees,” Zeus said. “Percy Jackson, you will have one gift from the gods.”I hesitated. “Any gift?”Zeus nodded grimly. “I know what you will ask. The greatest gift of all.

With the consensus of the entire Council, I can make you immortal.

A telkhine was hunched over a console, but he was so involved with his work, he didn’t notice us. He was about five feet tall, with slick black seal fur and stubby little feet.
