BATMAN:
Excuse me?
Professor Ross had been letting you sleep off the mess of last night while he took his medicine, it seems it took effect.
HENRY ROSS:
I mean, yeah half the warehouse collapses but it was [i:lit]only[/i:lit] half. And all that carnage scared the Cult right off, so from a certain point of view, you’re only [i:lit]partially[/i:lit] a huge screw-up.
You think you preferred him when he was radioactive.
BATMAN:
Any news on Doctor Dorian?
HENRY:
I posted in the Santa Prisca general on Lexchan, if he’s active we’ll know within a few hours.
BATMAN:
Professor, when you set out on your mission, did you ever fear where it would take you.
HENRY:
I tried to cure death with nuclear waste. Of course, I was afraid, but the first time I brought back a Dog, and I realized all the people I could help, I knew the fear was worth it.
BATMAN:
You’re a wise man Professor Ross. When you’re not a radioactive monster that is.
HENRY:
And you’re pretty swell for a man dressed as a squirrel.
You frown.
BATMAN:
I’m a Bat.
HENRY:
Try longer ears then.
BATMAN:
More importantly, what do you know about Kobra?
HENRY:
New Age death cult. Some college kid skimmed the Vedas and riled up a bunch of desperate losers with promises of a Kali Yuga. They were small-time until the US invaded. The Island was so flooded with weapons they became a major player with sheer numbers.
BATMAN:
Leadership?
HENRY:
No one knows. The highest rank anyone has seen is called “Bestowed.” So-called masters of blood magic or some such nonsense.
BATMAN:
I hit them hard, I expect they’ll want to hit back.
HENRY:
Probably. You did go all Pearl Harbor on them.
PING!
HENRY:
It’s Dorian! He says he would be willing to trade materials, but he wants me to come to him.
BATMAN:
What location?
HENRY:
He set a meet-up at the docks, but I suspect he’ll have me carried elsewhere, you’ll have to follow me.
BATMAN:
That can be arranged.
HENRY:
Didn’t your plane blow up? Both of them?
BATMAN:
I have an alternative.

The Black Freighter was a perfect skeleton for the equipment you brought in on the Batwing. With both planes down, it is a perfect mobile Batcave.
The drones have a solid lead on Henry, and the ship following just offshore gives you a perfect chance to monitor.
Once Henry reached the docks, he was ushered into a nondescript speedboat by a trench-coated figure. You follow at a distance until-
BATWAVE:
Alert: Live rounds detected.
Gunfire from the shore! But Henry is still on his way to Dr. Dorian! What do you do?
>The Eye of the Serpent
Follow the gunfire on the shore.
>Tyger, Tyger
Follow the boat Professor Ross is in.
