Meanwhile, Starke is killed, and there's a huge murder mystery built into the set for the audience to figure out. The leader of Mercadia becomes fascinated with the Weatherlight and ends up forcing Gerrard to sell it to him in exchange for the medicine that will save Mirri's life. The Weatherlight crashes on the other side of the portal in a mercantile city world named Mercadia. Michael and I stopped working on the story after Stronghold, so Exodus is where the story starts to diverge. Mirri being alive, but injured, is an important part of year two. This is basically what happened in the actual card sets ( Tempest block), except in our version, Crovax doesn't go bad, kill Mirri, and leave. (The reason the Weatherlight needs to use a portal is its planeshifting engine is damaged by another ship, the Predator, when they first arrive in Rath and lose their plane-hopping ability.) Things don't quite go according to plan, and the only way to make it through the portal before it closes is to use a device called the Windshaper (which allows the Weatherlight to travel very fast), but in doing so, traps Ertai on Rath. Ertai travels to a portal to open it and make sure the Weatherlight has a way to leave Rath.
#VOLRATH THE WHISPERER PLUS#
The crew makes their way to Volrath's Stronghold where they rescue Sisay, plus Takara (Starke's daughter), and Karn and Tahngarth (who had been captured). The Weatherlight crew seeks out the help of Gerrard (and in turn Mirri, Ertai, Crovax, and Starke) to help rescue Sisay.
Year OneĬaptain Sisay is kidnapped by Volrath and taken to the plane of Rath. Here's the abbreviated version of what we pitched. When Michael Ryan and I first created the Weatherlight Saga, we planned it as a three-year arc (with the idea that there would be more stories to tell with the characters, but this would be the first one).
I'll walk you through the story that could have been and then introduce you to the character's card in Dominaria United. In today's column, I'm just going to tell two stories, but they involved characters that each had a whole storyline that never happened. For today and the next two weeks, I'm going to tell a bunch of card-by-card design stories from Dominaria United.
