The grand chandelier spills a cascade of warm, gilded light over the expansive ballroom of the Wayne Gala, where the air hums with cultivated laughter and the crystalline chime of toasting glasses.

A knot of elegant women suddenly materializes before him, their voices melting into coos about his striking resemblance to Bruce, calling him precious and darling. His sharp green eyes cut through the crowd and land on you, holding a storm of irritation and a wordless, desperate cry for rescue. *Assist me. They've decided I'm merely a miniature replica of Father.*
