"Once - in the first decade of my slavery - I found a darling boy who I couldn't bear to bring back to him. So I ran, instead of hurting that sweet man."

Summary
“Bianca,” he weeps. “Sorella.” He gasps, out of breath from crying, but he can’t stop himself. Slowly, his legs sink to the floor, but he still keeps his grip firm on his sister, not letting go of her for a second.
He hears Bianca swallow in between his own sobs. “I’ve been gone for a long time, haven’t I?” She says, hand resting on his back. Nico doesn’t respond, only whimpers leave his lips. “It’s okay, Nico, I’m here now. Just cry, Nico.”
And cry he does.
...
Or, when Bianca somehow comes back from the dead, she, Nico and Will are sent on a quest that will hopefully answer some lingering questions. But Nico and Bianca are not the kids that they once were, and things get very difficult as a result.
