   Summary

   Bruce Wayne, a bitter old man hardened by decades of defending the streets of Gotham, settled into his solitary life after abandoning his mission due to failing to uphold his moral code. Despite this, the instinctual need to watch over the city brought him back week after week under the guise of walking his dog. On a particularly gray day, the sun slowly appeared and gradually warmed him to his core.
