Scenes
1.
While posing as gladiators in ancient Rome, Percy, Annabeth, Jason, and Piper uncover a cryptic prophecy during a secretive meeting in the Forum. The prophecy hints at a forgotten Roman relic, the "Corona Imperii" (Crown of Empire), capable of reshaping the empire’s fate. A Praetor’s spy overhears their conversation, and the group flees through narrow alleyways, dodging soldiers. Jason jokes about their awful disguises as the group escapes, setting the stage for a dangerous quest.
2.
In the Roman Catacombs, Annabeth deciphers a mural revealing the Corona Imperii’s location beneath the Colosseum. Percy, trying to lighten the mood, accidentally triggers a trap, flooding the chamber with sand. They barely escape, bickering about Percy’s tendency to "help" too much. Tensions rise as they realize the relic is guarded by an ancient curse and deadly Roman spirits.
3.
Disguised as arena performers, the group sneaks into the Colosseum during a gladiator match. Beneath the arena, they discover a hidden entrance guarded by enchanted bronze centurions. Jason and Percy bicker about whose powers are better before teaming up to disable the guardians. Annabeth mutters to herself while to unlock the secret passage, complaining about Piper trying to charm a guard not knowing she was only trying to buy her time.
4.
The group finds themselves in a cavern filled with glowing Roman runes and a stone pedestal holding a replica of the Corona Imperii. Annabeth realizes it’s a test, and they must prove their worth to claim the real relic. Each faces a challenge representing Roman virtues—Percy’s courage, Piper’s loyalty, Jason’s leadership, and Annabeth’s wisdom. With dry humor, Percy nearly fails his task, but teamwork gets them through.
5.
When they claim the replica crown, the cavern shakes as a warning emerges. It curses them to be hunted by the spirits of the empire unless they return the real Corona Imperii to its rightful place. Percy quips about their "new ghost fan club" as they narrowly escape, dodging collapsing tunnels and spectral attacks.
6.
As they prepare to confront the relic’s location, they notice the Praetor’s soldiers arriving, evidently having been tracking the group all along. Jason feels responsible, suspecting the Praetor was tipped off by someone who recognized his Roman origins. The group escapes with Piper distracting the soldiers, but they lose the replica crown, raising the stakes for their mission.
7.
The group infiltrates the emperor’s palace to find the real Corona Imperii. They discover it hidden in plain sight, embedded in a mosaic of the empire’s glory. As Annabeth works to extract it, the enemies reappears with an army of spirits, trying to destroy them. The group battles insurmountable odds, with Percy’s sarcasm cutting through the tension. Jason finally embraces his Roman heritage, using it to rally the spirits to their side. They return the crown to the mosaic, breaking the curse. The general vanishes, and the group escapes, battered but triumphant, joking about never visiting Rome again.
