In book one, Percy received some pearls from a naiad.
Percy thought
(and still thinks) that they were free. But Anebeth said that nothings
free (she said "there's no such thing as a
free lunch"). This would be significent because Rick wouldn't go
through all the trouble of adding that to the book if it wasn't
important. Then, In book 4, Percy Recieves a Sand Doller from his Dad, Posidon. Posidon said "
"Oh, yes. In my day, you could buy allot with a sand dollar. I
think you will find It buys allot, If used in the right
situation." [The Battle of the Labyrinth, Page 357] What If the sand dollar was for repaying the naiad for
the pearls. What is the sand dollar was some form of money?
Percy would most lickely realise that Annebeth was right, probaly when
his life is in danger. The Naid would probaly be about to kill him,
intill Percy repayed her. Or a situation like that. |
