The Volturi judgement approached like an inevitable snowstorm, and the Cullens needed eyes that could see the truth and voices to defend it. As Garrett's daughter, my nomadic life had taught me to distrust the laws of Volterra, but Carlisle’s call changed everything. We arrived in Forks ready to be witnesses to the blood running through that child's veins... and ready to prove that my talent is something the enemy cannot ignore.
My father, Garrett, always said a cause wasn't worth fighting for unless it set our long-dead blood on fire. That is why, when Carlisle Cullen called for witnesses to prove that little Renesmee was no taboo, but a living miracle, we didn't hesitate to head to Forks. The Volturi were coming to destroy the Cullens' peace over Irina's misunderstanding, but they didn't count on the fact that in our veins—and in my own unexpected gift—lay the strength to change the rules of the game.
