It began to dawn on Rain that the rest of the campers weren't acting in their normal way. Some of them were leaving the pavilion unusually early. Some of them were standing up, even standing on the benches or tables. And a lot of mutterings and fast words were passing through Rain's ears. "New demi-gods" she heard more than once. Rain got up and fluttered her wings, soaring above the crowd. There, in the distance, she saw a lone figure fast-approaching three others at the peak of half-blood hill.
Landing back on the ground, Rain followed the crowd as they all made their way to the newcomers. She quickened her pace, wanting to get a better view, away from the others. As she ran past the lead group of people, she saw that it was her brother greeting a satyr she had seen often and two demi-gods who looked about the same age as her.

Brody fist bumped Phillipp, "Yeah it's been a long time, though I think you may be exaggerating slightly." He chuckled, glad to see an old friend. Slowly he turned towards the newcomers with a smile on his face. "Welcome to Camp Half-Blood," he paused, turning to Phillip, "I assume you filled them in on who they are?" he almost muttered on his breath, still loud enough for the twins to hear. Speaking loudly once again he said, "I am Brody, son of Terpsikhore." He stuck out his hand, waiting for one of them to shake it, or speak, or react in anyway.
Internally Brody thought back to when he had first come to the camp. It had actually been Phillip's older brother who had brought him here, but he was away trying to spread the word of Pan. Though the nature god was gone, the satyrs were still working hard to preserve what natural beauty the earth still had, and they were succeeding. Brody snapped back to the present; it wasn't about him anymore. Everything had worked out fine for him and now he had to make sure these two didn't go beserk. Granted it was usually an Ares kid who did that, but you never knew for sure. "Have they been claimed yet? They look old enough."
