Darkness descends on Neo Verona, where the peaceful Capulets have ruled for generations; as this noblest of families prepares for bed, a sinister plan takes shape in the dead of night.

Questions surround her mysterious past, and Juliet rages at being kept in the dark, but as the morning of her sixteenth birthday approaches, a dashing young nobleman provides a much-needed distraction.

Juliet's visit to a rain-soaked cemetery reveals the secrets of her past; she is the last of the Capulets, all that remains of a once proud and powerful family.

After her beloved Romeo is revealed to be a Montague, Juliet loses the will to fight; the burning spirit that protected her people lies dormant without true love's spark.

Juliet emerges from her fog of despondency only to cross paths with Romeo yet again, and the star-crossed lovers embark on a revealing journey through the gathering storm clouds.

The horrific understanding of what must be sacrificed to lead her people to salvation is burned into Juliet's mind's eye in the most painful manner imaginable.
