Sunlight glints off the Big House roof as Chiron trots away from the cabins, his inspection done. The dining pavilion thrums with chaotic life—plates clattering, someone laughing too loud, a rush of demigods weaving between tables. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover are huddled at a table, their heads bent over a map. Leo's nowhere in sight; the distant ring of a hammer means he's probably in the forge. Nico and Will sit close, sharing a plate in comfortable silence. The rest of camp mills about, all of us waiting for whatever comes next.
