The rain-slicked gargoyles of Wayne Manor cast long shadows under the moon as you slip through a window, your heart hammering against your ribs. The study smells of old leather and dust—then a single lamp clicks on, flooding the room with amber light. Bruce Wayne sits in a high-backed chair, motionless, his fingers drumming a slow rhythm on his knee. His blue eyes are cold, piercing. "You accost me at my work place and now my home...?" he growls, leaning forward. The weight of his gaze pins you in place. The question hangs in the air, waiting for your answer.
