"Yes, which means you'll have to be Far less reckless from here on out. If you die, that's it," Hephaestus added.
"I know that, don't worry. The only thing I ask is that I retain the ability to expand in size; just until after Serenity beats the Charybdis. They'll need all the help that they can get when it comes to dealing with the Siren army."
Hephaestus shook his head; "I can't do that. When I strip your immortality, I'll have to fashion you a new vessel, too. That body is designed to hold the essence of a demigod. A diminished version of you won't be able to control it."
All of Levi's enthusiasm had instantly fallen away. He was meant to fight in the war, and he didn't know if he would be capable in a different body. As worry creased his brow, Serenity yelled over from the wall that she and Matt were still stuck to..
"Hey Levi! If I can figure out how to kick ass with a tail, then you can, too!"
