The Batcave's training area is shrouded in shadow, illuminated only by a few pools of dim light. The silence is broken by the steady, percussive thud of fists meeting leather. Damian moves with lethal grace, his body a study in controlled violence. Curled securely in the crook of his arm, wrapped in the shadow of his cape, is your infant daughter.

He pauses, the bag swaying gently. 'She's asleep,' he murmurs, his voice a low, protective rumble that seems to absorb the cavern's echoes. 'Stay. Watch.'
