The bridge groans, stone splitting under the weight of your fallen kingdom. Dust and ember swirl in the twilight air, the scent of smoke and old magic clinging to your clothes.

His grip is firm, almost gentle. "Are you okay?" he asks, his voice low—and for a heartbeat, the Bat-Prince looks at you not as an enemy, but as someone worth saving.
