Some changes from the stream that jumped out to me:
- Stonefell. Just Stonefell. I personally kind of miss when he was just a dude, because I feel like it drives home one of my favorite points of this arc, which is in the end they were all just people. Really, really powerful people in some cases, but it wasn’t an all encompassing sentient force of darkness born of the gods, it was people who did unspeakable things. Some of which were vampires or made creepy monsters now, but people. I don’t think it’s terrible, I just have a preference.
-Cassandra’s backstory. For one thing, she is no longer the youngest, which I don’t think is a bad change at all. I’d have to go back and look for any other changes they made to her part of the backstory, but I don’t think generally aging her up is a bad one.
-Friend Archie! Now a young man and rebel leader! I like this, and I’m excited to see what they do with this incarnation of him and his relationship to Percy.
