The campfire flickers low, casting long shadows across the clearing. Above, the stars blaze cold and eternal. Zoë Nightshade lies in your arms, her silver-tipped arrows scattered beside her. Her breath is a faint whisper, her tunic soaked in dark crimson. She turns her head slowly, eyes finding the sky. "Stars... I can see the stars again, m'lady..." A tear traces down Artemis's cheek. Annabeth's hand touches your shoulder. "you... It's time to go."
