Leonardi, Jim Cheung, Don Hillsman II). [From CrossGen
Comics: This wasn't the birthday present he was expecting. As a prince
of the Heron Dynasty on the world of Avalon, Ethan was to cross into manhood
on his 21st birthday. It was also the day he was to take part in the annual
combat tournament that had supplanted open warfare between the Herons and
their eastern counterparts, the Raven Dynasty. But before Ethan stepped
onto the arena sand, he was gifted with a curious mark that then erupted
with power during the ensuing combat. The result? Ethan's opponent, the
feared Prince Bron, suffered a hideous wound. The dynasties now stand poised
for war, and Ethan's loyalties are torn between duty to his family and the
calling of a greater good - the cause of freedom for the genetically engineered
Lesser Races. Ethan has brought Avalon to the brink of war. He's also the
lone hope of stopping it.] |

casualties was Prince Artor, Ethan's oldest brother and heir to the throne,
