    Summary

    “Basically, there’s something wrong with Gotham. Apparently, things don’t, uh. Stay dead here. And the reason I’m recording this is so that when I inevitably get arrested and thrown into Arkham, at least you’ll know that this is all my mom’s fault, really.”
    -

    If Janet Drake’s body hadn’t been unrecoverable, Tim could have just buried her in Gotham, followed her notes, done the ritual, and he would have had her back alive again. She’d be ecstatic! All her research, all her theories about the mysterious life-bringing properties of Gotham’s soil, confirmed!

    But she dies far away, body lost at sea, and all Tim has left of her is an empty basement full of her research, all for nothing...

    But it’d be a shame to let his mother’s work go to waste... wouldn’t it? And Jason Todd’s grave is right there, in his neighbors’ family graveyard...

    In Tim’s defense, there had never been anyone around to tell him not to drink the water.

    Summary

    Kyushu, Japan. November 2nd, 1999. The day the first god decended. And the first Beast was slain.

    The day the war for the fate of all Earths began. The war between Gods and Beasts, Archons and Entities.

    May Heaven help us all.
