Cover of IN THE NAME OF PRIDE. This is a dark, forest green cover with celtic knotwork around the border. In the top corners is a tree icon surrounded by flame. In the bottom corners are a shield. Stark, mostly bare tree limbs flank either side of the cover. In the center is the title on a ribbon above a bow and two arrows.
