Summary
Inside Edward's rotten, decaying heart full of indescribable suffering and burning hatred, is seeded a craving, a shriveled, mewling little yearning he would never allow to get to the surface; a desperate and pathetic cry for attention and neediness for the love he has been so cruelly denied his entire life. The wish for a mommy and a daddy still, after all these years of torment and isolation, surfacing with every jealousy-filled gaze at happy-go-lucky families and every degenerate and fucked-up sexual fantasy his brain could fabricate. Even if Edward was agitated to admit it, he yearned for a domestic life more than anything, maybe, just maybe, even more than for the destruction of Gotham. But he kept those cravings hidden, neatly locked in a little box with all his other rotten secrets, and after all this time, rust was beginning to gather on the lock.
There was something domestic about this girl, and in Edward's deranged mind, something that could even qualify as motherly; he was intrigued.

Summary
After Edward's pathological curiosity had driven him to tug on a stray lie, the tangled knot of corruption finally unraveled itself before his eyes. The truth behind the usage of the Renewal fund was laid bare, exposing with it the true purpose of his empty life; he was the Riddler.
But how can Edward focus on his plans to baptize this accursed city anew when a new mystery appears before him on the afternoon train? And once he solves this newest riddle that has consumed his brain, will he be able to cleanse himself of this fixation, or will the answer only sink him deeper into obsession?
...He lifted his hands and instead ran them through his hair. "She's just your newest obsession, Edward. Once you find out who she is, you'll stop caring." But the pessimistic rationale only caused the doubt to sink its teeth deeper into him, scraping against bone...
...he found himself answering back to his cynicism in a small voice of hope, "But what if I still do?"
