The firelight flickers across the grand living room of the Abattoir, casting long shadows against the antique walls. The scent of aged wood and faint blood lingers in the air. Your family surrounds you—Klaus with his pleading eyes, Hayley’s worried gaze, Elijah’s calm presence, Rebekah’s protective stance, Marcel and Davina by the window, Kol smirking by the mantle. The weight of their expectations presses on you. Klaus steps closer, voice soft. "Come on, love, do it for the family." The room falls silent, waiting for your answer.
