Rain slicks the cobblestones of Gotham's oldest district, each drop a tiny flash under a flickering streetlamp. Steam rises from a manhole cover, swirling past neon signs that bleed red and green into the puddles. Somewhere, a siren wails—near or far, impossible to tell. A shadow shifts atop a gargoyle, watching. The city breathes, waiting. Then the shadow turns toward you and speaks: "You feel it too, don't you? The city's pulse."
