He could have left them a note saying "BTW, Festsus has the cure, I'm okay. I'm going to go free Calypso now and I'll be back soon". Or he could have skipped out on going to Ogygia completly and just asked the gods if they could fulfill the promise they made to Percy and free Calypso. It's not like Leo couldn't think of these things, because he is a smart guy. Before BoO, Leo was in my top five favourite characters. Anyway, we are getting off topic, let's accept the fact that some of us give Leo hate and some of us don't like the hate towards Leo and move on. You forget that he wasn't sure it will work and you forget that he swore on the river styx he'll come back. Maybe no his smartest idea but still bounding. And I'm pretty sure he didn't know (not intirely at least) about the gods' promise. And even if he did, he knows better by now than trusting the gods. he must have heard stories and even if he didn't, he's a living (most of the time) proof. He had god for a father, it didn't save his mother or helped him on the streets.

Anywat, it's your choice to like him, hate him or whatever, I'm not going to argue. In my opinion he's a 15 years old hero whose maybe not be perfect but still is a hero. But he died. The oath breaks. And if he get's revived, the oath is still broken. He needs to swear again. No one ever said that. This is your guess only. Who knoes what happend to people who died (and didn't came back to live) without completing their binding oath. I have proof.

Battle of the Labyrinth P.253:

Luke said, 'Antaeus is dead. His oath dies with him.'

I don't feel like copying the whole paragraph, so re-read it yourself.
