[[caption-width-right:350:"Sweet dreams, Thalia."]]

->''You wake up in a foggy haze with one hell of a headache. The way ahead is dark and foreboding. You remember who you are, but not a lick of how you got there. And to top it all off, you’ve got a persistent, bloodthirsty doppelgänger chasing after you. Welcome to your coma; enjoy your stay!''

But sadly for Thalia, some nightmares are harder to confront than others…
