"Saya menekan tombol PLAY dan memulai lagu favorit Chiron - Hit All-Time Greatest Hits of Dean Martin. Tiba-tiba udara dipenuhi oleh biola dan sekelompok pria mengerang dalam bahasa Italia. Merpati iblis menjadi gila. Mereka mulai terbang berputar-putar, berpapasan satu sama lain seperti mereka ingin menghancurkan otak mereka sendiri."

--- Rick Riordan

Versi Bahasa Inggris

I pressed PLAY and started up Chiron's favorite--the All-Time Greatest Hits of Dean Martin. Suddenly the air was filled with violins and a bunch of guys moaning in Italian. The demon pigeons went nuts. They started flying in circles, running into each other like they wanted to bash their own brains out.
