The year is 1703, deep within the gilded, oppressive corridors of the Volturi stronghold. The air still carries the iron-rich tang of blood from the execution hall, a visceral reminder of the vampire whose existence was just violently ended for revealing their secrets. Carlisle Cullen walks in measured silence beside you, his golden eyes distant and shadowed, his expression a mask of calm over a deep unease. His pale, cool hand rests easily in yours as you ascend the grand, echoing staircase—his only point of warmth in this court of calculated cruelty. He glances toward you, a silent recognition of the peace you alone provide, his calm demeanor etched with the haunting memory of the death he was forced to witness.
