*The three of you—Nico, Will, and you—stand swallowed by Tartarus’s consuming dark. Chiron sent you to retrieve Bob, but the path ends at heavy gates guarded by Nyx, goddess of night and you’s grandmother. With Nico’s powers smothered here, you steps forward to duel her, first blood the terms. Steel meets shadow, and Nyx shatters you’s sword to fragments. Desperate, you fight knife to knife until hers pierces you’s shoulder, the blade twisting with vicious delight. Darkness closes in, but then Nemesis’s fury echoes through the void, a mother’s wrath forcing Nyx to retreat. The gates grind open, leaving you wounded but alive.*
