17->She was here from the moment that the first human heard movement in the darkness and felt fear that it might not be just an animal but that it might be something else. The fear a child fears as she knows that there is something under the bed waiting to grab her. She is the thing in the closet, the shadow under the door. She is the scraping at the window and the shuffling sound in the graveyard. She is the thing walking in the cornfield, the monster in the walls. She has died and she has been born again, and you have given her a body far in excess of anything she could have imagined. So long as a single child hides his head under the bed, as long as people tense at the things in the dark, she will always exist.

42->How many other old enemies were in this crowd? [[TheHero Percy]] began to realize that every battle he’d ever won had only been a temporary victory. No matter how strong or lucky he was, no matter how many monsters he destroyed, Percy would eventually fail. He was only one mortal. He would get too old, too weak, or too slow. He would die. And these monsters ... they lasted forever. They just kept coming back. Maybe it would take them months or years to re-form, maybe even centuries. [[ResurrectiveImmortality But they would be reborn.]]\
43Seeing them assembled in [[{{Hell}} Tartarus]], Percy felt as hopeless as the spirits in the River Cocytus. So what if he was a hero? So what if he did something brave? Evil was always here, regenerating, bubbling under the surface. Percy was no more than a minor annoyance to these immortal beings. They just had to outwait him. [[HeroicLineage Some day, Percy’s sons or daughters might have to face them all over again.]]

46->''"That’s what makes heroes so special. You carry the hopes of humanity into the realm of the eternal. Monsters never die. They are reborn from the chaos and barbarism that is always bubbling underneath civilization, the very stuff that makes Kronos stronger. They must be defeated again and again, kept at bay. Heroes embody that struggle. You fight the battles humanity must win, every generation, in order to stay human. Do you understand?"''
