Percy doesn't move at first. He closes his eyes, takes a couple of deep, steadying breaths, and does once last internal 'check' to see if he can feel any flavour of demonic presence. If they're going to do this -- whatever this might be -- he doesn't want to do it without reason.

Once he's satisfied, he nods his head and picks up the axe. "I don't want to hurt anyone."

Liar.

"...not without cause."

There we go.
