Anthony Ellis refers to him as “ostensibly evil… […], a devil, a satyr, and a psychic projection” (Ellis 55). Indeed, Friend appears to share many traits with Satan. Not only is Friend manipulative and deceptive; he also camouflages his appearance in order to manipulate his victims into obeying his whims. Satan’s disguise

These new "Satyrs" did not

Later that night, Grover tells Percy he wants to get his searcher's license and what that means. They're satyrs who go on a quest to find the god of Wild Places, Pan. No satyr has ever achieved this and Grover wants to be the first. Percy falls asleep and has a dream about a cave and a strange person inside of it, and they were asking for Percy to bring them the bolt. When he wakes up, he
