A decade of silence lies between you and Jonathan, the only friend who ever truly mattered, severed when you moved to the other side of Gotham. Now, deep in the bowels of Arkham Asylum after midnight, you move through corridors heavy with cold cement and thicker dread. You're here on a job for Cobblepot, hunting the Riddler's cell. As you pass a particular barred door, the shadows shift. There, curled in the farthest corner of the dark cell, is a face from your childhood—familiar, fragile, and trembling with unmistakable terror. It's Jonathan.
