wisdom's daughter would likely mean annabeth. walks alone might mean that, in Rome, as Juno predicted, annabeth will be... 'difficult'. she might be on one side and everybody on a another when, say, the group of demigods on this next quest have to make a decision. it may be her hatred toward Hera/Juno that causes this. the mark of Athena burns through Rome... that might mean that Annabeth will leave a mark while in Rome. maybe Athena acts through Annabeth, or it may be one of Annabeth's own actions. they might be destroying Rome, or helping it. but personally, I think they will destroy

That actually made sense. I like how you said that I think you could be very close to what the real meaning is. But I don't know so your guess is as good as mine. Or better in this case is

I did some research on wisdoms daughter...i found that Metis Titan of wisdom was zeus's 1st wife but due to a prophesy issued from metis herself(she was pregnant with what we can only assume is athena at the time) her second child would be a boy who would overthrow Zeus. In response to this Zeus ate Metis whole...1 year later hepastues uses a hammer and chisle to aleviate a headache of Zeus and athena in full battle array emerged. Its possible that Wisdoms daughter is not a referance to annabeth but her mother Athena.

Then there is 'the mark of athena burns through rome'. Again i researched and found the THE NUMBER 7 is an icon of Athena! a mark so to speak.

With that in mind maybe the mark is a reference to the 7 demigods of the Prophesy of 7?

Burns through Rome may be a refence to a purifying fire to clense rome of the infection caused by the doors of death being open?

so the prophesy translates to Athena walks alone while the 7 purify rome with fire?....but then again i may be wrong but this is just what make sense to me with what i know

Just one more thing in my fist paragraph "wisdoms daughter walks alone could be a refence to the fact that athena is an unmarrying Goddess

rome could mean new rome at camp J since the 7 are in Camp J they will leave the camp leave a mark( im thinking cause by Leo's awesome enginering) but i dont think that its throgh cause the title is mark of athena so it must be something bigger

i think "wisdom's daughter" is annabeth, and that she will be alone in Rome. (wow that rhymed! hahah)I don't think the "mark of Athena" is a physical mark, maybe something more emotional?

Well, wisdom's daughter I think is Annabeth. It has to be. walks alone, maybe she will have a diffrent opinion on something and no go with the group and go on her own quest. Mark of Athena, well I think it means annabeth has something that symbolizes Athena. Burns through Rome, well that is the one i'm stuck on. Maybe it means she spreads something throughout Rome that causes distress? I don't know but those are my thoughts.

Wisdom's daughter could be Annabeth, but it could also mean a good idea that many people disapprove of. It is actually fairly likely that another daughter of Athena is wisdom's daughter, just like "the child of athena's final stand" was Deadalus. Athena burned a bird mark on Deadalus's skin, so the Mark of Athena could be Deadalus's bird. Athena's emblem is an owl, so the owl may have something to do with it.

That's a brilliant point actually. That could be the mark of Athen but it's something major since the next book is Mark of Athena. (;

I'm guessing "Wisdom's duaghter" is Annabeth, and "walks alone" means that when she is in Rome she will stand alone on a desicion/choice

Walks alone means that she must find Athena´s statue without anybody´s help... At least that´s what I think

It could be any child of Athena, but I think it's Annabeth. But other than, that I have no idea what the mark of Athena burning through Rome could mean.

Wisdom's Daughter Walks Alone
Mark of Athena Burns Through Rome.

In the new series, as we all know, Ella says this. And I'm pretty sure the only major character of Wisdom is Athena in the Gods. And her daughter could be Annabeth or a new character which is not yet mentioned. The third and fourth words can be interpreted in a way that she has to make a choice herself or maybe goes agains the rest of the crowd like Jason, Percy, Frank and all. Basically against the 7 or about to be IN the 7 by a decision.
The second line is harder to understand but when you look through it, you can say that it means she (Annabeth) leavs Rome in a confusion. Mark of Athena is definitely something important. So you'll also have to read through Athena's history. But Athena, as we all know, is a confusing character so we can't define wether she'll stay with the 'good' side or reverse.

The next book in 'Mark of Athena' and I can't wait!

Wisom's daughter= Annabeth daughter of Athena
The mark of athena burns through rome= Annabeth will go on a quest by herself in the real Rome, because gaea said she will destroy the demigods by their roots. AKA Rome or greece.

annabeth is wisdoms daughter because athena is the goddess of wisdom. it probably means that annabeth
is gonna have some problem with the the 6 heroes of the prophecy and will be fighting alone while this enrages athena and she curses some romans probably percy as he is also a part of the roman legion

Ikechi0078 said:
Wisdom's Daughter her is Annabeth, in the precious book in the sequel, Hera predicted that Percy would be hindered by the one who hates her (Hera) most, ie Annabeth. So i think 'Wisdom's daughter walks alone' should refer to Annabeth becoming a renegade and deserting Percy and the other 5. The Mark of Arhena should refer to a symbol which which is a hallmark of the goddess Athena, i settle for rhe number '7' but 'the mark of Athena BURNS through Rome' takes my mind back to leo the son of Vulcan, it had previously been said that a son of Vulcan gifted with the power of flames is a sign of disaster (The great London fire) so who knows? Maybe Leo and the seven destroy Rome. I might be wrong but this sounds good enough to me.
