I love how throughout the whole series Percy’s loyalty to the gods is tested but they don’t realize that Percy’s loyalty will always be to the ones he considers family; his mom, grover, annabeth, Tyson, camp.
It’s why even at the very end he trusts Luke enough to make a decision with that much at stake. He sees Luke: the Luke who took him under his wing when he first arrived at camp, the Luke who saved annabeth and grover, the Luke who was doing all this so his camp family could have a better life. Percy sees that Luke’s intentions were in the right place and in the end even Luke had his loyalty - something the gods never will.
