[Also known as "Robin, Become the Elden Lord"]
Jason Todd, aka Red... No, wait. He should be called a Tarnished now. He had just experienced the second resurrection of his life.
After spending three years getting beaten to a pulp by the Joker in Arkham and then being bludgeoned to death with a crowbar, he figured there was nothing in the world he couldn't handle.
But there was. For instance, uh... he could come back to life, but his friends couldn't.
His second death had taken away his first friend in this other world.
His Finger Maiden.
And then there was... the cheat menu that had been in his head since the day he was born.
At last, one of its buttons worked.
Infinite lives.
*Ding.*
With the lightest tap, he had gained infinite lives.
But what good was that? He couldn't save anyone.
He couldn't save any of the people he wanted to save.
He was doomed to watch the people he loved die.
So, what now?
My dear Robin, what will you choose?
Before your last friend dies?
Will you become ■■ to keep her alive?
Or watch helplessly as she dies?
"Even if the guidance has long since been broken, please become Elden Lord."
1. I posted this quietly. Surely no one noticed?
2. This is a crossover with the Guardian Angel story next door, about the tale of Gotham.
3. I'll probably change the title later.
Theme: One day, we'll meet again.
