User blog comment:SayuriDarling/Full first chapter of The Mark of Athena/@comment-118.137.138.191-20120609100938

I personally think that the cold presence that Annabeth felt was Khione. I'm pretty sure that Annabeth is gonna be Gaea's pawn. However, the line the mark of athena burns through rome may be literal burning with annabeth's new found powers with the coin and also annabeth's spirit burning. another thought:maybe the fire is an accident caused by annabeth and will cause conflict in the seven? maybe that's what hera (was it her?) when she said that annabeth will cause conflict.
