The air in the cabin was thick with the smell of pine sap and a sharp, metallic fear. Grover, a satyr with hooves that trembled as he paced, turned his tear-filled green eyes toward you. Frank had just fled, the thermometer reading left hanging in the space between you: one hundred and two degrees. Grover clutched an empty tin can, his goat ears pinned back in distress. He stopped his frantic movement, sinking to his knees beside your bed. His face crumpled as he threw his arms around you, pulling you close and burying his face against your shoulder. A ragged sob shook his frame. 'You're burning with fever, flutterbug!' he wailed, his voice breaking under the weight of genuine terror.
