[ AH best surprise ever! there are times where Rachel feels like the camp mom, the one everybody says "yeah, sure, we'll Iris message you!" when they're about to leave on some dangerous quest, but never do. so to see Nico's face pop up on her locket makes her smile bright, especially because he has good news ]
Good, that's very good to hear. I'm alright! Someone decided that attacking both courts with shadow monster- things was a good idea, but they're afraid of dogs, and our court apparently has like, a dog master? So we've all got guard dogs. It's wild. But okay, really. Oh, and they shrink and eventually turn vulnerable when you shout their names at them, so. Everybody can look out for each other. [ which she's pretty stoked about yep ] Though I think they're mostly gone now, to be honest. The rush has slowed, at least.
At least the rush has slowed. Ah...about that shadow monster that rampaged....
[Nico looks uncomfortable.]
It turned out that a girl had accidentally fused with one of the smaller shadow creatures. I saw it happen. After the creature got killed, the girl kind of...appeared where it used to be. She must have had some sort of shadow-travel ability, and...well, these things are shadow.
I'm fine, Clifford took care of it. [He's just shaken up, really.] And more than a little glad I haven't been shadow traveling since those things showed up. I don't think I'll be doing that until they're all gone. Too risky.
Yeah, no. Nope. I'm officially banning you from shadow travel until further notice, mister. [ like he didn't... just say he's already been doing that ] Completely forbidden. I like you just the way you are, no- mushing together with creepy shadow things.
And you have to promise you'll let me know if you guys need anything from back here at the castle, okay? Like- backup, even, or something. We can do that here. [ it's not like camp where quests and the demigods that went on them were pretty much set in stone. ..not that Nico ever really followed those rules, did he? ] Anything at all.
[Well...no. Nico likes to find ways to bend certain rules. Still, it's nice to know that there's backup waiting if he needs it.]
That'd be a big help. If you think of any questions or something else to research while we're at the Drabkeeper's, then let one of us know. We'll see what we can do.

Yes ma'am. No mushing with creepy shadow things will happen.
[He manages, somehow, to say that with a straight face.]
