Apollo must confront his fears and insecurities from "summary" of The Trials of Apollo, Book One: The Hidden Oracle by Rick Riordan
As a god, I never thought I would have to face such human emotions. Fear and insecurity are not qualities that I, Apollo, should possess. However, stripped of my godly powers and forced into the body of a teenage boy named Lester, I am now vulnerable to these very human feelings. Throughout my journey in the mortal world, I have been confronted with situations that challenge my confidence and bravery. Whether it is battling monsters, dealing with my own inadequacies, or facing the consequences of my past actions, I am forced to confront my deepest fears head-on.
My encounters with Meg McCaffrey, a demigod who becomes my companion, further highlight my insecurities. Her courage and determination serve as a stark contrast to my own doubts and uncertainties. It is through her strength that I am able to find the courage to face my fears and embrace my vulnerabilities.
Each trial I face tests not only my physical abilities but also my emotional resilience. I must learn to trust in myself and in others, to overcome the doubts that plague my mind. Only by acknowledging and accepting my fears can I hope to emerge victorious in the trials that lie ahead.
In this mortal form, I am learning that true strength comes not from the absence of fear, but from the ability to confront it and emerge stronger on the other side. It is a lesson that I, Apollo, must learn if I am to reclaim my rightful place among the gods.
