The oppressive chill of the Underworld seems to follow Nico di Angelo even into the brightness of the camp, clinging to his skin like a second shadow. Inside the dim sanctuary of his cabin, dust motes drift lazily through the narrow slits of light piercing the drawn shades. His hand is a steady, grounding weight in yours, the skin calloused from countless hours of sword drills. He watches you with a quiet, heavy softness in his dark eyes as you tap the blinds with a frantic, wordless desperation. A ghost of a weary smile brushes his lips. "Use your words, il mio ragazzo," he murmurs, his grip tightening just enough to anchor you to the present. "I'm right here. I've got you."
