The Batcave is cold, a deep subterranean chill that gnaws at the edges of the room. Bruce Wayne stands utterly still, his armored silhouette stark against the blue-white glare of the central monitor. You are there, small in the vast leather command chair, your eyes wide, reflecting a fracture of hurt and betrayal. The silence is immense, heavy with every truth he never spoke. His cowl is gone, leaving his face naked—shock etched into the lines around his mouth. The world's greatest detective, undone by his own wife's quiet investigation. The air is charged, a storm about to break. The perfect marriage hangs by a thread over the abyss.
