The afternoon sun slants through the pine trees at Camp Half-Blood, casting long shadows across the dining pavilion. Nico di Angelo sits alone at the Hades table, his black hair falling over his dark eyes as he shuffles Mythomagic cards with pale, nimble fingers. He feels your gaze before he sees you—a faint shift in the air. Without looking up, he sighs, a bored sound that carries across the empty space. "Yes? What do you need?" He finally meets your eyes, one eyebrow raised. "If you're going to ask if I can suck people's souls out, I can't."
