Link and Annabeth stared at the symbol in utter shock and confusion. The symbol glowed with beauty, as it continued to hover above Link's hand. Annabeth smiled in amazement and was about to say something, until she heard Link whisper.

"Why is it me?" He sighed, his voice low and so full of sadness. Annabeth reached for his shoulder to comfort him. When suddenly a heavy gust of wind blew down on them. The symbol glowed brightly, having Annabeth and Link to shield their eyes with their arms. The ground beneath them softened. When the symbol dimmed back to it's original state, Annabeth and Link were now able to see their surroundings. The ground were no longer cold, hard stone, but instead soft green grass beneath them. The cave no longer dark and cold, but covered with greenery and warmth. Both of their mouth opened and eyes widen in awe.

"How?" Annabeth asked no one in particular. She and Link gazed at the greenery that surrounded them. While as they gazed they spotted a dirt path which they followed.

As they followed the path they soon arrive at a small clearing. In the center of the clearing was a stone slab that looked to be made to hold a sword. The slab was smoothed and the same symbol was carved on it. A small ring of shallow water surrounded the slab and beautiful white flowers grew all around the clearing made the area that made the whole scene look like a fantasy dream.

They walked through the circle of clear, shallow water and approached the slab. Annabeth observed the slab to try and identify anything about it that resembles a ancient Greek, or Roman structure that she had read in one of her books. But minutes later after observing and thinking, she couldn't identify it. "This doesn't seem to be any ancient structures that I know of and I usually know every structure made for the gods or anything that involves Greek or Roman and other famous structures. But nothing seems to click." Annabeth said, Link couldn't think of anything either. Except for a slight déjà-vu.

"You are correct." A familiar voice said from behind. They both turn around to see the young girl. "This is no structure. This is just merely a lost memory behind the shadows. Forgotten, but now found and remembered again." She explained, the girl looked around the clearing with a sorrowful expression. "One last time." She said quietly. Annabeth frowned towards the young girl.

"Who are you? What is this place and why does this symbol mean?" Annabeth asked while gesturing to the triangle symbol, carved on the stone slab. The girl looked at Link and their eyes met, spring green meet sky blue. Her eyes were the only this about her that stood out.

"I'm no one, not anymore at least. This is just a lost memory as I just explained and the symbol that you see ever since Link came, is called the Triforce. The three triangles represents, Power, Wisdom and Courage." She said as she looked away from Link's eyes and went to look at Annabeth.

"The prophecy mentioned those three. But why is this involved with Olympus and us demigods?" Annabeth questioned. The girl shook her head.

"It's not. This involves everyone. Greek. Roman. Norse. Egyptian. Everyone." She said. "A great evil arises to rip a hole between worlds, which will create a black hole that will destroy everything in it's path. Which will finally give that great evil a chance to create it's own world of destruction for itself." Link and Annabeth's eyes widen.

"Wait. Rip a hole between worlds?" Annabeth asked, the girl shook her head.

"I cannot explain everything, as time is running out for me." She looked back towards Link. "Link shall be your guide and key for the quest. For this is his quest." She explained, Link backed away with his eyes wide.

"But you said this is the quest for the hero. At first I thought you meant Percy, but this is Link's quest?" Annabeth said in utter shock. The girl nodded.

"During the quest he will soon remember and will know what to do along the way. Our faith is in his hands. Link." She turned to Link, who was now terrified. Her expression saddened even more. "Have courage and believe in yourself." She smiled softly, Link calmed down and somehow seem to recognise that phrase and nodded. Annabeth puts a hand on Link's shoulder.

"We should go before the harpies do another turn around the cabins." She explained, Link nodded.

"Follow the trail and you'll soon find a small gap behind the largest tree." The girl said, they start walking down the path. But Link was stopped by the girl grabbing his hand, he turned around to see the girl handing him a vibrant, blue ocarina, the size of his hand. He held the ocarina and looked at the girl. "For your travels. I hope it will be of use to you, but also a gift to say goodbye. Goodbye, Link." With that she faded away, Link stepped back in shock. A wave of grief and sorrow washed over him. He looked at the spot where she had stood one last time before turning and running up the trail to catch up to Annabeth.
