On the world of Avalon, humans and winged Ythrians have built a shared civilization. For generations, these two species have lived as neighbors and allies. But now their peace faces destruction. The distant star-traveling peoples who first brought life to Avalon have declared war on each other. Ancient human powers clash with the Ythrian Domain across the galaxy. The colonists of Avalon find themselves caught between their origins and their home. Humans must choose between their species and their Ythrian neighbors. The winged folk face the same terrible decision. Friends become enemies as each group answers the call of their ancestral blood. The war forces every citizen of Avalon to decide where their true loyalty lies.
