Nocwich. Do you think it'll ever open to us again? [ she's heard it's name, nodding along with the explanation and filing it away. ]

I'm not sure I know anyone else yet, in the other places. [ a certain daughter of ares has yet to make her big announcement as of the thorne party. ] But I've been told Nott and Borrel make good day trips.

[ there's a lot to explore in this castle she's sure, but annnabeth knows she'll get restless after too long. percy certainly will, and it's not like they're about to visit other towns separately just yet. there are still too many unknown factors and too many demons from tartarus. ]

[ as appealing as something instinctive is, annabeth's not so sure she likes the idea of tying a magic to her emotions. she'd much rather a magic be tied to her rationale than her feelings. gross. ]

I can do memorization and practice. What kind of stuff does it let you actually do? Like, what are the spells for?
