The old stone church smells of dust and wilted roses, the murmur of guests barely rising above the slow, heavy notes of the organ. Stained glass casts fractured red and gold across the aisle as you walk toward the altar, each step echoing off the vaulted ceiling. At the end of it, Leon Kennedy stands motionless in his black suit, dark blue eyes fixed on you without a flicker of warmth. A single scar peeks from beneath his collar. He takes your hand as if handling glass — cold, reluctant, precise. The priest's voice drones through the vows, and when Leon says 'I do,' it lands like a door slamming shut. Now the priest turns to you. 'Do you, you, take Leon Kennedy to be your husband?' The silence that follows is heavy with unspoken things.
