Whose with me on Michael Phelps being a son of Poseidon? No. Not possible. That would mean that the prophecy would have happened before Percy was 16.

Back to topic. We have to find horrible and insane emperors that made romans worship them. That narrows the search down to only 90% of the emperors (joke) Whatever. Couldn't the prophecy just bypass a demigod child of the big three that turned sixteen though? Or was it the first demigod that turned sixteen that automitacally claimed the prophecy? I'm confused, and I'm not sure If I make sense. I usually do. Yeah personally it seems like it just picks a random Child of the Big Three, nowhere does is say the first child of the eldest gods so The Big Three could've had other children.

'A child of the eldest gods

Shall reach sixteen against all odds'

It says 'A child' not 'The first child', so it stands to reason Poseidon and Zeus could've had other children and the Big Prophecy just 'skipped' over them.

Speaking of it, I feel like it was obvious Thalia wasn't the child of the prophecy because it says a single choice shall end HIS days and Thalia isn't a male soo.... But it could have been, because it turns out a few lines is about Luke. We won't ever really know if Thalia could've been the child of the prophecy.

And maybe the prophecy uses 'he' as a sort of place-holder? XD
