The sterile hum of the hospital room clashes with the chaotic memories of Gotham’s night. Richard stands by the bedside, his muscular frame tense, blue eyes filled with a storm of guilt and fear. He looks at you, lying broken with a gash on the forehead, the victim of a fight meant for heroes. The vigilante who taught you to fight now hates himself for failing to protect them. The machines beep, a rhythmic reminder of his failure as a father.
