* To elaborate the stated reason for their dyslexia is because their brains are hard-wired to read Ancient Greek and both the Latin and Cyrillic alphabets are derived from the Ancient Greek one. The capital forms of Alpha, Beta, Epsilon, Zeta, Eta, Iota, Kappa, Mu, Nu, Omicron, Rho, Tau, Upsilon and Chi are the same as A, B, E, Z, H, I, K, N, M, O, P, T, Y and X respectively and the capital forms of Pi and Phi crop up in Cyrillic along with several of the ones that appear in Latin. Its this similarity that causes the dyslexia since their brains are mixing up what they see and what their brains expect. If they learnt a language that was written using a completely different writing system (hanzi/kanji/hanja, kana, hangul, Arabic, Thai, Ge'ez, Devengari and so forth) there wouldn't be any confusion caused by the hard wiring and they would be able to read it as well as any one else who learns it as a second language.

*It seems more likely to ThisTroper that they would have even more difficulties with alternate writing systems, as if their brains are "hard-wired" to read Ancient Greek, they would be predisposed to think that a writing system should be an alphabet, as opposed to logographic, symbolic, syllabic, etc.

[[WMG: And the natural progression of all of this will be...]]
Percy, [[TheKaneChronicles Carter]], [[TheHeroesOfOlympus Jason]] and [[NorseMythology the son of Thor]] will team up with [[ChineseMythology the daughter of the Jade Emperor]], [[JapaneseMythology the son of Susano-o]], [[AztecMythology a child of Quetzalcoatl]], [[CelticMythology the son of Lugh, trained by Cu Chulainn]], [[HollywoodVoodoo the child of Baron Samedi]] and the [[HinduMythology child of Ganesha]].

They will travel the world and epic crossovers will be had by all. Percy will do battle with Orochi, Carter will engage Meretseger who has allied with Surtr and strives to bring about the Ragnarok. The Chinese and Japanese demigods will enjoy a [[SlapSlapKiss vitriolic relationship]] culminating with them squaring off against [[EldritchAbomination Ame-No-Mikaboshi]] while [[AltarTheSpeed getting married on a sinking ship.]] Meanwhile, Jason will be sucked into a LoveTriangle with the daughter of Baron Samedi and the daughter of Quetzalcoatl while they try and stop Loki and Tezcatlipoca from upending the world and bringing about chaos. The son of Lugh will die in the throws of the [[UnstoppableRage ristrad]] while bringing down Gaia and the child of Ganesha will put an end to Danu while transcending the cycle of suffering...

That, or they'll all just play {{Scion}}...

* The last known apocalyptic event was WWII. The US isn't the core of the "civilized" world, its the heart of "western civilization" which historically refers to the spirit of adventure and innovation. The eastern side of the world is never mentioned, probably because the east only mimics western innovation on a surface level, but maintains conserved in its cultural roots.
