With war on the horizon, she and her friends must navigate the Labyrinth to find its creator and convince him to help Camp Half-Blood.

An alternate PoV retelling of The Battle of the Labyrinth. Part 4 of the
Daughter of Wisdom series.
Notes: This fic was written for NaNoWriMo 2017, and Annabeth is absolutely gold when it comes to NaNo, because it's the second year running I won with double the word count. Huge thank you to my faithful readers, in particular strawberrygirl2000, CupcakeQueen816, and Hello for years (no seriously wow!) of cheerleading this series every single week. You guys are the best, and I would not have got this far with Annabeth's story without you. This one is really for you.
