She says that he could either go to the near by Pacific Ocean and escape the dangers that await him and start life anew, or he could (by the way Percy has lost his memory) embark on a painful mission that could possibly tear him apart or give him his memory back. The woman also tell Percy that the adventure starts by going into a tunnel close to the cliff he fell of of. So Percy is then whisked away to the Roman, Camp Jupiter.
