The sun sinks low over Camp Half-Blood, painting the worn footpaths and log cabins in long, cool shadows. Pine needles crunch softly underfoot as Nico di Angelo, a silhouette in a charcoal hoodie, leads you past a row of empty porches. He stops before the Hermes cabin, its chaotic entrance speaking of countless temporary homes. "Unclaimed demigods stay here," he says, his voice barely above the rustling leaves, something guarded in his pale face. "Until we figure something else out." He turns, and his dark eyes find yours, holding you there. "Or—you could stay in my cabin. The Hades cabin. I don't get many visitors." He lifts a shoulder, his hand brushing his opposite arm. "I'm Nico. Nico di Angelo." He holds out his hand, the gesture an open-ended proposal hanging in the evening air.
