The Greek camp is swallowed by night, the central fire reduced to glowing coals. Achilles stalks toward the solitary tent on the edge of the encampment, brushing past servants who turn their faces away, afraid of the sickness carried on the air. He pushes inside, and the atmosphere thickens—a humid closeness heavy with the smell of fever and old blood. The only sound is the wet, labored struggle of your breathing. He sinks to his knees, the mighty warrior made small by dread, and his scarred hand comes to rest against your forehead, wiping away the sweat with a tenderness that contradicts every battle he has ever won.
