    It's so nice to see all the Redwall comments. They were my favorite books growing up, I actually got to meet Brian Jacques at a local bookstore when I was in elementary school. I recently re purchased almost the entire collection of books. I absolutely love Bloomburrow because it is so close to the world of Redwall. Anyone who doesn't know Redwall but loves Bloomburrow I absolutely implore you to go find some of the books and read them. I still read them to this day and hell I'm 44 years old lol, they bring me back to childhood wonderment. 🙂

      I think it’s more likely referring to Ulamog and Kozilek recovering and returning from the blind eternities since it’s plural. The mage in blue could be many things and Jace seems like a very obvious red herring since we had Ral looking for Jace during this story, but if it is Ulamog and Kozilek returning then Jace being one of the few to know about Emrakul sealed in the moon could somehow be used by Emrakul to release her bringing the end of the world (potentially the entire multiverse given the omenpaths might allow spawn to spread much more quickly and effectively).

    This is the very first set that I can remember (been playing since OG Ravnica) in which there are so many great designed Legendary Creatures that I honestly cannot choose which one I want to build as a new commander deck. It has really come down between Wildsear, the gruul Wolf that gives enchantments cascade... because Gruul Enchantress deck is something new and the Orzhov Bat legendary creature that reanimates 3cmc creatures. I think I may break-bad & start building Wildsear; cascade along with all of those enchantments that do things when you cast something from exile seems so synergistic.

      I thought that Wildsear (the Elemental Wolf) shown in one of the first promo artworks with the Mabel staring at him, was going to do more & actually have a card in the main set. Instead, (still listening) I haven't heard from him in the story & he was the back-up commander for the Gruul deck.
      I love Zoraline as well. Aggressively costed & she is pretty much 3cmc matters deck.
      As I said above in my post, these two characters were the ones I was torn about. I didn't know which commander deck I wanted to build... I ended up landing on Gruul Enchantress.
