What is charon's reaction to Dante?

Charon, the ferryman of the underworld in Dante's "Inferno," initially reacts with anger and resistance to Dante’s presence. He is perplexed by Dante’s living status and tries to refuse him passage across the river Acheron, warning that no living soul should enter the realm of the dead. However, Virgil, Dante's guide, intervenes, asserting that Dante is meant to journey through Hell, ultimately persuading Charon to allow him to cross. This interaction underscores the tension between the living and the dead in Dante's narrative.
