Aeithales is a series of greenhouses, most of them burnt down due to Caligula's efforts. Aeithales was tended by Phillip McCaffrey, and was formerly the home of Meg McCaffrey. The remaining greenhouse is currently inhabited by cacti dryads, and most recently Herophile, who often take refuge in the nearby Cistern. The former house of the McCaffreys was recently restored with the help of the Meliai.

Meg McCaffrey-RR

Meg, who once lived in Aeithales.

The Trials of Apollo[]

The Burning Maze[]

Meg, Apollo, and Grover Underwood exit from the Labyrinth here. The three are greeted by a Dryad living in the destroyed greenhouses. Meg reveals that she used to live in Aeithales until she and her father were forced to flee when she was five. The group decides to use it as a base camp as they set out to stop Caligula. When Helios is freed of Medea’s control and the drought ends, the dryads rebuild the daughter of Demeter‘s childhood home and ask her to stay, she declines in favor of helping Apollo.

The Tower of Nero[]

After Meg liberates her adopted siblings from their 'stepfather,' Nero, they move to Aeithales, where she teaches them gardening. A few weeks later Apollo visits and they talk.

Known inhabitants[]

Trivia[]

  • Aeithales is Ancient Greek for evergreen.
