It's his favorite photograph of her – one she's never seen.
He took it the morning following their wedding night. She is sleeping, her unruly hair covering her part of face. It's when she looks most beautiful… innocent… pure.
He hides it when they're taken to prison; and returns to it fourteen years later. It's still in perfect condition.
Rodolphus still doesn't allow her to see it. He keeps it with him at all times, safely tucked away.
He stares at it when she fawns over their Lord.
(Maybe things would have turned out differently if he'd shown it to her.)
