Rosinante was certainly not wrong in his thinking -- that was exactly what made Gaea so dangerous. That and she was essentially an embodiment of the world itself -- the mountains, the land, the soil -- all of it was her domain.
"There was a prophecy." There's always a prophecy. Jason takes a breath and then rattles off the following as if it were ingrained into his very being. Which, in a way, it was:
"Seven half-bloods shall answer the call, To storm or fire, the world must fall, An oath to keep with a final breath, And foes bear arms to the Doors of Death."
He's quiet for a moment, muttering old prophecies is always weird because you know what all the lines mean but you can still remember a time when each line was a mystery. He doesn't like discussing prophecies, never had, but seeing as the discovery of a new one had led to his death, they leave him feeling a little more antsy than usual. He decides to focus on this one, it's easier to talk about since they won...mostly.
"She was a goddess of the Earth. So we separated her from her source of influence and since you can't really kill a being like that we had to scatter her essence instead." He frowns, thinking about what that had cost too. Leo had died at the hands of a prophecy as well. "Gaea fell to a combination of storm and fire in the end...though Leo definitely got in the last shot."
