In season 2 of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Percy (Walker Scobell) returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries) is changing, he learns he has a cyclops half-brother named Tyson (Daniel Diemer), Grover (Aryan Simhadri) has gone missing, and the camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him into the deadly Sea of Monsters to retrieve the Golden Fleece that will save Thalia’s tree, which protects the borders of the camp.

In the book, Percy starts his quest to find Grover and retrieve the Golden Fleece on the Camp Half-Blood beach. Hermes (Lin Manuel Miranda) summons Annabeth and Tyson, and directs the trio to a cruise ship in the distance, warning them they have five minutes before Harpies find them. Percy’s Dad Poseidon (Toby Stephens) helps them by sending a hippocampus (water horse) named Rainbow to take them out to the Princess Andromeda before the Harpies close in.

Update: Set today.

Camp Half-Blood Sets:

Camp Half-Blood, the summer camp where young demigods train to combat monsters, is no longer safe in season 2.

Thalia’s tree, which protected the camp, has been poisoned, allowing monsters to cross the border.
