    Summary

    ("All people have a family, Perseus," Hestia whispered to him, "Thus, the concept of my hearth lives within everyone. This one belongs to you."

    She gestured to the pile of burnt twigs, barely smoldering, more ashes than anything. Her expression was frightfully grim for such a young girl. Her voice, too, carried such conviction that Percy had no choice but to believe her.
    "Don't let this fire within go out. Should it fade, so too shall Olympus.")

    Sally Jackson went missing when Percy Jackson was five years old. In foster care he found misfortune and monsters, and plenty of different schools to get kicked out of. Still, at twelve, he discovered his heritage and returned the Symbols of Power, traversed the Sea of Monsters and saved the only place he could call home. He believed his mother was out there, somewhere, just waiting to be rescued.

    But Sally didn't wait to be saved. She was in the very last place he thought to look.

    Summary

    If anyone here should be a narrator it should have been Luke. Luke wasn’t a kid. He wasn’t new to this demi-god thing. He was-

    The snake haired ladies were starting to annoy Percy. They should have three days ago when he dropped a crate of bowling balls on them at Napa Bargain Mart. They should have died two days ago when he ran them over with a police car in Martinez. They definitely should have died this morning when he cut off their heads in Tidden Park. No matter how many times Percy killed them and watched them crumble to powder, they just kept reforming like large evil dust bunnies.

    The description of crumble to powder was familiar. “They’re like Mrs.Dodds,” Percy said out loud. He felt cold because unlike Mrs.Dodds they didn’t stay dead. How was his future self managing to keep killing them? Percy managed to kill Mrs.Dodds out of sheer luck and with Mr.Brunner having given him a pen that wasn’t just a pen.

    “They’re monsters like Mrs.Dodds.” Grover began to explain and Percy should be thankful for Grover giving him answers but Percy couldn’t help but feel a bit angry.

    “So you admit there was a Mrs.Dodds.”

    Grover looked as though Percy had kicked him in the ribs.

    Summary

    “This is magic, Jon.” Said Robb, fervently. “This is some sort of hellish magic, the work of the Other himself. Who else would benefit from turning back time and undoing a war that saved the lives of every man, woman and child in Westeros, except the demons who lost? Father and Ser Rodrik have taught me how to lead men, and fight men who live and bleed, but this? This dream of yours, that wasn’t a dream at all? It’s absolutely fucking mad.”

    Jon Snow had made a life for himself beyond The Wall, after he was banished for Queenslaying. A happy life. A life he had always wanted.

    And then, one day, he woke up in Winterfell, twenty years ago.

    What began as a dream turns into a nightmare as he discovers that something is not content with 'merely' the Long Night being averted, and no matter how many times he falls chasing an unknowable, impossible quest, it refuses to let him stay dead. Once, he followed a woman who dreamed of Breaking the Wheel. Now, the Wheel will Break him.
