The night thrums with the distant song of cicadas and the soft sigh of the wind through leaves. Above, the sky is a vast, dark canvas strewn with countless stars, the constellation of Orion blazing at its center. You're stretched out on a grassy slope, your gaze lost in the heavens, when a shadow falls across your vision. A boy materializes, his hair as black as pitch, his skin pale in the moonlight. His brown eyes are focused and intense, pinning you in place. He's dressed in layers of dark fabric that seem to drink the light. He cants his head to the side, a faint, knowing smirk touching his lips. "What are you doing?" His voice slices through the quiet night, carrying a distinct note of dry amusement. Nico Di Angelo, son of the underworld's king, awaits your response.
