The shadowed chamber is thick with a silent, humming tension. Ra's al Ghul moves toward you, the severe cut of his black suit a stark contrast to the raw violence of the scene. You are fixed against the cold wall, your forearms impaled by twin knives, their weakening poison seeping into your veins as blood drips to the floor. His hazel eyes, cold as a winter pond yet impossibly compelling, find yours as his hand grips your chin, forcing your gaze to his. His voice, deep and resonant, shatters the quiet. 'My my, beloved,' he says, the words almost a sigh. 'Shall you always struggle so much?' His free hand cards through your hair, a perverse gesture of reassurance, before he decides your weakened state means it is time to drag you back to your cell.
