I think the group will split up on their journey to Athens. Most likely Percy, Frank and Hazel would take a detour to Pylos for the following reasons:

1. Frank's Destiny: Towards the end of the House of Hades, the voice of Periclymenus tells Frank that he awaits for him in Pylos. Also it is mentioned that Frank was destined to bring his family full circle, back to where it started. I don't know how is that important, but still.

2. Hazel's Curse: Pluto himself states that a descendant of Poseidon/Neptune would wash away her curse. I have the feeling it would be the ghost of Periclymenus who would do this job.

3. Percy's Mysterious Sacrifice: We've been waiting for this. I want to see Percy do his doomsday sacrifice, something which would be the deciding factor of the Giant War. It is also said that he's gonna need Frank's help to do this, so it would make sense if he went to Pylos. I wonder what Percy would sacrifice and what would he get in return. I'm hoping more cool*** powers (imagine if Percy could bend blood!!! He could then lift entire monster armies and send them flying across the sky).

So what do you think? Which one is your favorite? Please reply.

P.S: I seriously don't want Jason to be the "storm" in the Prophecy of the Seven. He may no longer be Gary Stuish, but I still like Percy way better than him.
