Riley wondered through the camp, putting a few things to order as he went. He had to sound off on a few kids who decided to use the main pathway of the camp as their own battleground, by disarming them, and sending a shift kick to their rears. He helped a few of Hephaestus’ kids move some heavy contraption they made, out of the way, and generally made sure to keep the chaos of opening day down to a minimum before dinner. He saw old friends united and new friends made, and it made him glad to be in camp at the moment. Glad to be with people who at least had a chance of understanding what he went through when not in camp.<br/><br/>He directed a big farm boy to Demeter’s cabin, before he heard the horn sound throughout the camp. He grinned and walked back to the gates of Camp Half-Blood.<em>Well…Zachari, boy thunder, returns</em>he thought with a grin. Anyone who came back from a quest was to rightfully receive a hero’s welcome. Even more-so if they came back successful. Riley nodded at the guy, respect to both his position in camp, and the accomplishment of survival, before issuing an order to the guard on watch to get the returning heroes some ambrosia and some new clothes. Though he wasn’t in command, he most certainly sounded like he was, and the watch guard ran to complete his task.<br/><br/>From there, he just gave the returned their space. He didn’t know Zachari personally, but that didn’t stop him from making sure the guy got the kind of help he would want upon his own return from a quest some day.<br/>
