Let's talk about the reveal in Episode 6: Last to Leave by @ArsenaultRivera #vorthos #mtgmom

When we last saw Elspeth Tirel, it appeared that she was going to die (again), consumed in the exploding Sylex.

When we catch up with her, she's in a metaphysical state being guided through her life, and mortal attachments, by an unknown figure.
This figure appears in the form of herself as a child, as her mother, and as her former love Daxos, before revealing her true form: Serra.

Or, at least, an echo of Serra. The real Serra died centuries ago.

Oh, well, since some of you asked so nicely, here are some diagrams I made of how the interior of New Phyrexia has changed over time.

We start with Argentum, Karn's original creation. It was pretty simple, a hollow sphere with a mana core keeping the balance. #vorthos #mtgone
Then Memnarch, the Mirari given golem form, gets infected and reshapes the plane into five biomes, transporting living beings to populate it. He resides in the interior, but the mana core has destabilized, ejecting the 'suns' of each color of mana.
Inside the core, the mycosynth begins to grow toward the mana core. The side effect of the mycosynth is that it starts changed metal to flesh and vice versa.

A thread on The Brothers' War! #MTGBRO #Vorthos

Diegetically (meaning in-universe), it's also know as The Antiquies War, or the Antiquity War, which is the name of the book written on it by Kayla bin-Kroog.

(I'll have a whole article to prep you coming next month, don't worry)
Let's start with the things that cause the darn war, the Mightstone and Weakstone! These are two halves a single powerstone containing the soul of the ancient Thran artificer, Glacian. They were used to seal the Gateway to Phyrexia. Each brother covets the others'.
The Mightstone makes things stronger, the Weakstone makes things weaker. Hence, the mechanics. What starts as sibling rivalry results in the death of their mentor and eventually, each brother finds themselves in a position of power between feuding nations.

Let's talk about the new Frantic Search art by @mmalloyart.

This piece is filled with easter eggs, objects from other cards throughout Magic history. I have confirmed 13 with Mitchell so far, and I'm pretty sure that is all of them.

Thread time. #MTG #MTGUMA #Vorthos
#1: Sarpadian Empires, Vol. VII

My brand appears in the left column, identified by its rough edges, rugged cover, and it's violet bookmark ribbon.
#2: Book of Rass

This tome is easily identifiable by its gem-inlaid cover.
