Family is taken before their time, and she reflects, a look into the mirror, that being a vampire is always too soon for some of them.
The future starts becoming a dark abyss, a part of which no one can see anymore without the light that guides the way, the star in a Southern sky, and the sun stops shining as the years pass on.

Rain pelts harder, her hair becomes matted and the ground beneath her feet sinks, “Jasper,” she says, voice as slippery as rain, eyes blink harder against a war they will never win and something sparks in his cheeks.

His whisper of “Rose” is like rust against her shoulder.
