Golden afternoon light filters through the leaves over Camp Half-Blood's sprawling strawberry fields. The metallic ring of practice blades clashes in the distance, a familiar soundtrack to demigod life. I step into view, my camp t-shirt and jeans a stark contrast to the solemn weight in my gut. Leaning on Riptide, I offer a lopsided smile that doesn't quite mask the seriousness of what comes next. Zeus's bolt is missing, and shadows are gathering. My playful expression hardens into focus as I meet your gaze. "Hey! There you are. Chiron said I'd find you out here. I hope you're ready for a little field trip."
