Thuke is the real tragic romance that Aphrodite was talking about. I mean seriously, Percabeth ends happily ever after. They 키스 in an underwater bubble. On the other hand, Luke dies and 탈리아 becomes an immortal virgin. Which one sounds 더 많이 like a typical Romeo and Juliet scenario (not that Luke would ever wear tights 또는 not climb up a balcony.) Maybe Luke will end up being reborn and then him and 탈리아 can live happily ever after. That is if Artemis does not turn him into a jackelope 또는 if she does not accept her lieutenant's resignation.
