Summary
Dick Grayson wasn’t meant to be the last one left. He wasn’t meant to stand in the ashes of a world that had been picked clean, with nothing but ghosts and regrets to keep him company. But he fought until there was nothing left to fight for—until even Gotham’s ruins turned silent.
Then, when all hope was gone, a desperate sorcerer offered him the impossible: a second chance. A way back. A chance to rewrite the past before The Light won, before his family fell, before his world crumbled to dust.
Now, he wakes up in his thirteen-year-old body, the weight of an entire lost future pressing down on his shoulders. The halls of Mount Justice are untouched, filled with laughter and life—but all he can see are the names that will one day be carved into headstones. Every choice is a loaded gun. Every secret is a ticking clock. And the people he loves most? They have no idea what’s coming for them.
He won’t let it happen again.
No matter what it takes.
