ABOUT
After her village is attacked by the people she thought she could trust, Chieftain Dineru of the Dark Elves commands her remaining people to flee into the forest. After traversing the land to seek refuge, Dineru and her people find themselves in Orcsen, a land of Orcs. Despite having battled against the Orcs hundreds of years ago, Dineru is surprised to find she and her kind are welcomed and treated kindly in their kingdom. So, Dineru makes a deal with the Orc King, Gustav, asking for weapons and medicine so she and her people can return to fight. But Gustav has something else in mind.
Fighting alongside the Dark Elves, Gustav and his Orcs help Dineru save more of her race and welcome them into their kingdom as newfound brethren. In a brand-new country with a new chance to prosper, will Dineru and her people find peace, or is this only the beginning of a deadly future?

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS
Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.
In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.
The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
