“She sacrificed her life to make things right," Mitchell grumbled. "She[Silena Beuregard] was a hero”

“I'll show them 'love is worthless,'" Silena Beauregard grumbled as she strapped on her armor. "I'll pulverize them!”

“At one point, a girl who looked to be in her early twenties, with a Joan of Arc haircut, passed right in front of the glass. When Mitchell looked at her, the girl did an amazing thing: she looked back. She met his gaze with frank sexual meaning. Not that she "wanted" to have sex with him, necessarily. Only that she was happy to acknowledge, on this late-summer evening, that he was a man and she a woman, and if he found her attractive, that was all right with her. No American girl had ever looked at Mitchell like that.Deanie was right: Europe was a nice spot.”

“Silena BeauregardShe betrayed them all, thats what it seemedBut she never knew she was.Luke made a promise, that she was saving livesShe never knew that she wasn't saving,But killingSome knew, that something was about to happenA trick that ends in deathSome may have thought: Foolish Aphrodite girl. But,In the end she died braveIn the end she showed her treachourous secretIn the end she saw CharlieIn the end she was a hero”

“Silena appeared out of the woods, her sword drawn. Her Aphrodite armour was pink and red, colour coordinated to match her clothes and makeup. She looked like Guerilla Warfare Barbie.”

“I once sacrificed my life to keep my parents' promiise. This means nothing to you, because to you promises mean nothing... But later, she will forget her promise. She will forget she had a grandmother. ”
