They have very different personalities, just as Aries may be a BloodKnight Jerkass while Mars is a [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure reasonable]] SergeantBadass. But they both have Earth and Sky being held apart by another power. Given the events of Heroes of Olympus this may have made taking a message between them a case of NiceJobBreakingItHero, but it also may give some hope: if they can arrange for the Geb aspect to supplant Gaia, mother earth won't be evil anymore. That would fit better with the ecological message from the previous series.

to:

*** Though with Gaea dead, Geb and any other earth deities probably have more power - it's one less major earth goddess resisting them.




to:

** At least semi-confirmed. It is a happy ending, but it's unknown if the titles relate to the endings.




to:

* As of the end of Trials of Apollo, sort of. It's not the main plot, but Chiron, Bast, and Mimir are having a meeting.



He doesn't know he's a demigod, and when he found the Kanes, everyone assumed that he was a normal magician. Reasoning: In ''The Crown of Pltolemy'', Percy sees through Nekhbet's eyes and learns that a strong, ultraviolet aura is the mark of a greek demigod. In ''The Serpents Shadow'' Sadie says that Felix has a powerful purple aura.
Possibly, she's seeing the color ultraviolet but is unable to recognize it, or her previous status as an Avatar lets her brain automatically translate ultra-violet into regular violet when seeing the color set in a magical context. Alternatively, demigods simply have a regular purple aura that doesn't become ultra-violet until they reach some major milestone, such as being claimed, learning what they are, etc.

* This also explains his skill: he has magic from multiple mythologies built into him!

* They're all in the same universe, and it's implied that it will happen at the end of The Serpent's Shadow. Plus, it would be [[CrazyAwesome awesome]].

Added DiffLines:

**That's like saying Odin is just an aspect of Zeus or Jesus is just an aspect of Dionysus, no. They're different deities of different pantheons, for example, Gaea and Ouranos despise each other but Geb and Nut still love each other. Also, Geb(Egyptian Earth) is male and Gaea(Greek Earth) is female, same with Nut(Egyptian Sky), who is female and Ouranos(Greek Sky) is male.

Legacies are the children of demigods. The more generations between them and their godly ancestors, the less powerful they are, like Octavian being a legacy of Apollo but not having any divine gift from him. But if a demigod/legacy fell in love with someone with the blood of the pharaohs, then their child might be a magician with an affinity for a power related to their godly ancestor, even if there is no Egyptian aspect of that god. Felix is probably descended from either Khione, the Greco-Roman godless of snow or, even more likely, Skadi, Norse God of ice (we don't know if the Norse group can have legacies, but we have no reason to believe they can't) a Felix being descended from a Norse God would tie The Kane Chronicles to Literature/MagnusChaseAndTheGodsOfAsgard, letting them in on the crossover action. Felix being a legacy would also explain why his aura is just purple, rather than ultraviolet like other demigods, he's got a weaker connection to his godly ancestor.

[[WMG: Sadie Kane is in the same world as Polly Shulman's The Grimm Legacy]]
Reasons:
*Sadie Kane is the name of a minor character at Elizabeth's high school
*Sadie Kane and The New York Circulating Repository are both in New York. In the same kind of area
*The implications - Riordan's demigods and magicians live in a world and practically right next door to a library that houses pretty much any fairy tale or science fiction artifact - most of which are fully functioning and able to be checked out. I shudder to think of the mischief they could get into. Does Magnus hang out at this library when he's homeless?
