In a world fractured by fear and prejudice, where mutants stood at the brink of extinction consistently, a desperate alliance is forged. The leaders of the X-Men and Erik Lehnsherr, struck an unprecedented deal; a marriage that would unite their factions. For them, it was a calculated move—one rooted in necessity rather than affection.
Perhaps with a strengthened sense of mutant community, the more accepted the humans might be. After all how could they expect the human fraction to accept them if they couldn't accept themselves.
Erik had promised to be less volatile to the humans. In an attempt to ensure Erik is held to his new found morality, the marriage is forged. Someone to watch over Erik and prove he is true to his word.
As the day of the ceremony approached, a sense of foreboding hung in the air. Vanora June, a cherished member of Xavier's xmen, prepared for her role in this political debacle. Known for her kindness and unyielding hope, she was the embodiment of everything Erik had long abandoned. He, with his steely resolve and cynical worldview, saw her not as a partner, but as a means to an end.
Vanora finally felt the weight of her decision, the agreement she had made with Charles. Yet she was determined to approach this alliance with an open heart, while Erik remained a distant figure, focused solely on the implications of their vows.
Vanora dreamt of a future where this could lead to a safe place for mutants, while Erik contemplated the power this union would bring.
