Aly laughed softly at a joke one of the Athena girl's jokes and gave the girl a soft nudge with her elbow. The Athena cabin and the minor Gods cabin were have a special class in the stables today. One of the female Pegasus gave birth last week to an absolutely adorable foal. An older child of Athena - who happened to live on a farm all her life - was teaching them how to take care of the foal. Aly was quickly taken by the baby animal and she spent the entire class listening intently to the teacher explain how to care for it.

As the rest of the class moved on to actually riding the adult Pegasi, Aly lingered by the young foal and it's mother. The foal had finished feeding from its mother and was now looking curiously at Aly. She could help but smile at the adorable sight but made no move to reach out to the foal, especially with the mother watching her so carefully.

Her eyes darted over to the rest of the class who were all saddling up their Pegasus ready to practice but Aly couldn't bring herself to join them. She waved the questioning looks the other campers threw her and simply shook her head slightly. Alyanna had been feeling very off-kilter lately. It was like an unplaceable feeling of something wrong. She had learned to associate the feeling of the world's harmony being imbalanced, but never before had it felt this strong. Even the softest of energies were singing with discontent and thrummed with the chaos that seemed to have invaded the earth seemingly over night.

Aly began to blame it on the impending war between the Pantheons. First the Romans and now whispers of Egyptians? It made her wonder just how the Gods all got along with the other mythologies. She shuddered slightly at the thought. It was hard enough trying to keep their heads with the Greek Gods' out-of-date rules and way of culture, imagine multiplying that by three?

Sol was like a question to the entire camp. No one really talked to him or knew him that well. He had three friends, that was it. Toby Davis, Alyanna Knox, and Kevin Aunor were the closest people he had to friends. He never called them friends first, he waited for them to call him their friend. He'd regretted that the time Kevin had asked him if he bugged him and gotten upset over it, fully believing that Sol saw him as a pest. He'd gotten a headache from that but had insisted that the son of Thanatos was, indeed, his friend. But even those three didn't know that much about him. Perhaps Aly knew the most, he couldn't be certain.

Everyone at camp knew why he was so withdrawn. They knew he'd lost his younger twin brother on their way to Camp Half-Blood. They knew from the satyrs recount that his brother hadn't had a kind death. He'd been mutilated by monsters. Sol never talked about his brother, ever. Despite his name meaning sun in Latin, he wasn't sunny at all. He was clinically depressed, though he didn't know it, no one had ever diagnosed him except for a couple Athena kids that he did his best to ignore.

He'd gotten out of bed and dressed like he did every day. And he'd spend this day like he did every day. He'd go eat with the rest of the camp and train by himself. Clarisse La Rue occasionally offered to spar with him - she won every time - but not often. He'd just gotten done training when he decided to go to the stables. He liked to go pet the Pegasus. They were calming, innocent like animals were. He'd heard some campers were having some lesson in the stables and he hoped they were all done.

He watched as some campers left the stable, riding the winged horses. When he was sure a majority of them had left, he made his way into the stables, though he technically didn't have to wait. Not many people really talked to him. He apparently made them uncomfortable, though they seemed to prefer him over a certain son of Hades. He didn't think it helped that his father was the god of lies. It seemed to make him less trustworthy. On the bright side, no one could get away with lying to his face. He just had a feeling whenever someone lied.

He paused in the doorway of the stables when he gaze fell onto Alyanna. She looked gorgeous, but he didn't think it was possible for her to ever look bad. She could easily pass for a child of Aphrodite, but it wasn't just her looks. Her personality and everything else about her was beautiful. Every time he saw her, his heart felt like it skipped a beat.

"Hey there," he greeted calmly, leaning to the side, against the doorway. He slipped his jacket off and pulled his gloves off, folding them up and setting them down by the doorway. He strode over to one of the Pegasi left and gently stroked his hand across its cheek.
