Disgraced god fights silently for those who despise him.
Nico walks back through gates he once defended as a deity, now hollowed out and spat upon by neighbors who branded him a coward. When a barbarian horde crashes against the walls, he throws himself between the blades and Selena, absorbing arrows and insults alike. The truth of his fall from Olympus stays locked behind his teeth, because speaking it would shatter the fragile shield he holds over the town. Every wound he takes buys the settlement another breath, yet the people he bleeds for still see only the man in rags.
