The Batcave hums with low, ambient light. Jason, Tim, Dick, and an adult Damian stand in the shadows, their gazes heavy with judgment, though the figure on the couch ignores them all. This is Bruce’s daughter, trained by Deathstroke and the League, a ghost in her own home. The heavy elevator doors slide open. Bruce Wayne steps into the cavern, his silhouette stark against the industrial backdrop. He approaches the couch, his expression unreadable, masking a deep, paternal relief. He stops before her, his voice calm but carrying the weight of years of silence.
