Somewhere else in the universe, a certain half-bred alien stands before his superiors, wearing an intense expression.

"...I know what I am doing." he insists. "I know what the consequences could be. I understand that this is not a regular request. Please understand that if this were not such a dire time, I would never ask such a thing. I do not belong in Sector 5 anymore. My heart and my home is in 2814 with my family. If this is what I must do to be with them, then this is what I will do."

The elders of the Blue Lantern Corp regard him, their expressions thoughtful. One speaks up, "What if your plan doesn't work? Are you willing to gambol everything?"

"Yes." replies Avalon without hesitation. Any of the elders that know him well know that look, his jaw is set, his eyes hard. There will not be any dissuading Avalon from his chosen course of action.

There is a moment of silence, as each Elder considers his or her opinion on the matter. One by one, they all turn back to Avalon to give him their blessing. "We Hope that your plan brings you joy." says one.

Avalon doesn't respond verbally, and instead steps forward, using his left hand to draw the blue power ring off his right hand. It is offered to the council of Blue Lanterns, balanced in the center of his palm.
