He tells Percy the story about the tree and a girl named Thalia. The story was that Thalia, Annabeth and other half bloods where exploring outside of the half blood camp. But then monsters came out of nowhere and started fighting them. They tried to fight the monsters but they weren’t strong enough. So Thalia protected them and risked her own life to save them.

Khmer Rouge, to climb to power.</span>
