Later when the demigods were flying over Detroit, she summons a strong wind to knock Festus out of the sky and freezes the wires in his head which damages the control disk, thus preventing him from flying.

As soon as he sees her, Leo develops an instant crush on her, but she doesn't like him because she can sense the fire within him. When Jason Grace, Piper McLean, and Leo Valdez visit Boreas's penthouse suite in Quebec, they were given a "not-so-warm" welcome by Khione and her two immortal demigod brothers Zethes and Calais. According to some versions of the goddess for her pride she pierced her guard, and according to others, Khione was protected by the power of Poseidon and Apollo. She later gained self-confidence and boasted that she was better than Artemis, because two gods fell in love with her, and zero in her. However, in some myths it is claimed that she had a daughter, Sais, with an unknown man and the baby was killed by the Fates as soon as she was born. She also had an affair with Apollo. She was hardly ever represented in Greek or Roman mythology. The Eumolpidae in charge of the Eleusinian Mysteries claimed descent from her, as the mother of Eumolpus with Poseidon. In fear of her father's wrath, she cast the child in the sea, but Poseidon saved him and entrusted him to the care of Benthesikyme. She was loved by Poseidon and bore him a son, Eumolpus.
