A black haired, blue eyed figure flashed into a throne room holding a small bundle. Not the Olympus throne room, the Primordial throne room on the planet Avya. A man covered in galaxies was sitting in the largest throne at the head of the long table. His voice was deep and gentle. "Pontus, have you obtained the boy?" Pontus, Primordial of Water, nodded. He opened his cloak and revealed the still sleeping baby. "My Lord Chaos, I was listening to the mother's conversation with the boy's father, Poseidon. Apparently his name is Perseus, nicknamed Percy. Poseidon mentioned that he thinks this might be his most powerful child ever, including Triton, Theseus, Bellerophon, and Orion." Chaos, Creator of the Universe, nodded. "He will become a great hero someday. Earth will need him, as the prophecy child."
"My Lord, do you think we should tell him about his true parentage? I know you mean to act as a fatherly figure, but will he ever learn of his being a son of Poseidon?" Pontus inquired. Chaos looked to be in deep thought. "He will learn when he can understand. He needs to know. I must call the Council. It is best we tell them now, instead of them finding out the hard way. The plan is for him to be blessed when he turns five, so he has enough time to train and control his powers, which will be extremely strong. I sense great intelligence within him, so he will be able to understand. That will also be the time he learns of his true parentage."
Chaos shot a bolt of energy into the sky. Pontus, still holding the baby, walked to his throne. After a couple minutes, flashes started lighting up the room. First were Ouranos, Primordial of the sky and heavens, and Gaea, Primordial of the Earth. Next was Tartarus, Primordial of the Pit, Erebus, Primordial of Darkness, Nyx, Primordial of Night, and Hemera, Primordial of Day. A couple seconds later, Hemera's husband Aether, Primordial of Light, and Chronos, Primordial of Time, appeared. Eros, Primordial of Love, flashed in. Last to appear was Pontus' wife, Thalassa, Primordial of the Seas. Chaos cleared his throat to get the Primordials' attention.
"I have called you all today to discuss the matter of the Great Prophecy. As you know, we are forbidden to directly interfere, but without our help, the gods will fall. The Titans' rule will be worse than the gods by tenfold, therefore I have chosen a mortal hero to be the child of the Prophecy. Pontus has the child right now." Pontus showed them Percy. Gaea squealed. "He's so cute!" Chaos nodded. "His name is Perseus, but you may call him Percy. He is a son of Poseidon. The plan is for us all to bless him and train him when he is old enough, so he can become the child of the Prophecy. I will tell him of his true parentage when he can understand." The primordials nodded in understanding. "I am aware of Poseidon's condition after learning his son was missing, but we can't leave any hint that he is alive. It would ruin the plan, and plus it's more dramatic that way." Eros chuckled. Chaos was always dramatic. The rest of the Primordials looked uneasy. "This meeting is adjourned. Council dismissed."
