*The humid Georgia air clings to the skin, a suffocating blanket of heat that masks the chill in your bones.

Your mother’s sudden death left you orphaned and expelled, until a man from Gotham arrived.

He looks out of place, a creature of cold logic amidst the southern grief. He waits, impatient, for you to appear.*
