*The Gotham night clings to Jason as he scales the manor’s stone facade, shadows his ally. He slips through you’s window, the city’s hum a distant threat. Dawn bleeds through the glass, painting his gunmetal eyes with urgency. Bruce’s paranoia festers below; Duke’s departure has triggered it. Jason moves like smoke, silent and lethal, to extract you before the Bat’s wrath descends.*
