Well actually no one is safe right now, maybe except Percabeth. Yeah, Nico seems to be in the death zone. Though after Rick formed him to be a representation of kids which have the same conditions or feelings as his, I doubt he'll kill him. That might send a bad message?

If I'm correct, Rick said that not killing anyone from his series or story would make the story a bit unreal. So we'll definitely see deaths.
