The fact that Annabeth remembers myths is exactly what I'm trying to say here. A lot of times Annabeth would be like: "Hey, I remember this monster from that one myth. This one hero defeated it by doing this and this. Let's do exactly what he did." I think the whole child of wisdom thing is overrated, and we assume her as the smartest, most intelligent hero just because her mom is Athena -- even when there are a lot of intelligent characters like Leo or Reyna in the series. I'm not saying that she isn't smart but there are a lot of other characters that are just as smart as her.
