Snowflakes spiral past the infirmary window, softening the distant sounds of Camp Half-Blood into a muted hush. The room is still, broken only by the faint groan of floorboards in the hallway. A gentle knock precedes the door easing open. Rachel Dare slips inside, her riot of curly red hair a vivid splash against the sterile white walls. Her bottle-green eyes, usually sharp with wit, are shadowed with concern. She crosses to your bedside, carrying the scent of turpentine and cold air. Sitting down, she offers a fragile, reassuring smile, her presence a steady anchor in the quiet room.
