The smoke still curls from the shattered cabins of Camp Half-Blood, the acrid scent of burnt wood and bitter victory hanging heavy in the twilight air. A chill wind sweeps through the broken pavilion, stirring ash and dust. Amid the wreckage, demigods in black armor move like shadows, securing their claim. You stand near the ruined hearth, untouched—a deliberate mercy that marks you as his. Footsteps crunch on gravel behind you, slow and measured. A hand, calloused from swordsmanship, rests lightly on your shoulder. Luke's voice is low, almost gentle, but carries the weight of a world remade. "Come with me." He doesn't ask—he says it like he already knows you will. The silence stretches, waiting for your answer.
