The tragedy was too great for any mind to comprehend. The victims of the shooting were mounting up. So many dead or wounded. It happened so fast and without warning.
"Oh, it's just so awful. Those poor people." Aunt Harriot said. "What can we do?"
"I just called my people at the Wayne Foundation to help with the victims families," Bruce said.
"I learned that the Gotham Police caught the killer," Dick Grayson said. "Batman wasn't needed."
"Gotham City has the finest police force. We often forget that," Bruce said. "Batman only plays a small role in that regard. I am certain he wishes that he would not be needed at all."
"Batman is very much needed," Alfred pointed out. "He gives the people hope."
"Is there anything else we can do?" Dick asked.
"Light a candle," Bruce added.
"You're right," Dick replied. "In fact, I know a place we can light a candle. On the internet we can light a candle and it will go all over the world."
Dick moved to the computer off to the side near a small narrow bookcase. He typed in the URL and the page came up.
"My, my," Aunt Harriot said. "I've never seen anything like that. I'm not very literate when it comes to computers. How does it work?"
Dick showed her the steps for lighting a candle. "See, you choose a candle, light the wick, then you can sigh it. You don't have to worry about the candle being a danger either. It's virtual. I'm going to email all of my friends and have them light a candle."
"That's very admirable, Dick. Why don't we all light a candle."
Please light a candle for the victims. Batman would.
