** MCS; Deception leads to betrayal as a brash warrior's Dragon Whelp leads an army smack into the burial mound that has kept an immensely powerful Elder Dragon in suspended animation for centuries. Once unleashed, no force on Dominaria - not even the mysterious wizard known as the Tickery Man - can quell the wrath of Palladia Mors! The Elder Dragons are the most powerful creatures in the Legends expansion, and possibly the most powerful cards in all of Magic: The Gathering! Avatars of Dominaria's long-forgotten past, some of the secrets of these majestic beasts are revealed in this two-issue limited series.
