are familiar with Volterra, Italy (other than Niner of course), but I figured if I was going to be grading my sister's report on it, I better brush up on my history. An ally in Volterra. How easy is it to picture the confrontation between Felix, Demetri & Edward here? An overview of the city. Palazzo dei Priori The town center. I found some of these while searching images on google, and came across this one & was just tickled pink by what she was reading. This is one of the Archways. If you guys ever get bored, look up some of Volterra's history. It's dark and it makes the history nut in me squeal that SM picked Volterra as the setting for the Volturi. It fits wonderfully.. and in a way that it doesn't take much to picture a coven of bloodthirsty vampires living within the city walls.

It really is gorgeous. SM made a good choice with Volturra.

She really really did. I want to go to Italy SO bad, and it just makes me want to go there THAT much more now. Volterra being one of the first spots, of course.
