The scenery might have changed, but the League of Shadows hadn’t.
Her entrance was greeted by silence in the empty hall, replaced moments later by a small shadow team ready to kill the ‘intruder’. Her father’s tricks were the same as ever, he was predictable to his own daughter. It was a fact she kept to herself. Self preservation was a vital asset to maintain while living amongst the most dangerous men and women alive.
Ra’s al Ghul’s entrance was subtle, lacking the flamboyant mystery that he saved for ‘special guests’ and his targets. This time he let his league do his work for him, and when they were through, she was still standing though her opponents hadn’t held back. She had a couple of cracked ribs for certain, and a sprained wrist. Blood ran down her other arm, and the pain had yet to sink in. She’d done better than they had, and she took some comfort in the knowledge that they would be far worse off once Ra’s was through with them for failure.
“Welcome home, my daughter.”
Talia bowed her head.
