Description
Adastra, a world of stars and night. The time is measured by the cycles of the twin moons and the constantly changing constallations of the stars. Only once a year the sun rises at the horizon, granting one long day of dawn to the people of the world and with this heralding the new year and there is alwas a great feast and festival in the capital Adasan.
But where does the sun linger the rest of the year?
Nobody knows. This might be the best kept secret of the world. Adastra has many guardians, from the four gods to the enchantment that surrounds the entire plane and creates the uniquie nightsky. But they don't just guard the world from threads of other planes, but also the people from themselves and the secrets of Adastra's creator.
But those protections are also weak compared to the cataclysmic powers of planar catastrophies, just as the planar chaos so long ago. Even if it was far away, the echoes of this event caused ripples in the great enchantment. Now the borders between the living nightsky and the material world are way more fluent than on Asdastra's closest neighbor world Theros and those ripples took shape as twisted abominations of the creatures that usually lived there and a great war was fought between those horrors and the all life on Adastra. Eventually the world itself rose to end the slaughter and a great light rose from the heart of the world and all while it lasted none could take up arms or find any ill thought within him. The gods of Adasta knew this wouldn't last and they prayed that the creator of the world would come back to aid them and eventually he did and he bound all the horrors to the most isolated place on the world. Beyond the highest peaks of the coldest mountains he created a desert to which those creatures were bound forever and in it's heart he sealed the light of the world, protected by the very creatures that had seeked to destroy it. And there, in the center of this desert a valley bloomed with life from the light of the sun and many new guardians came into being from the nightsky, heeding the call of the gods and they settled in this concealed place. Tending and protection it and it's secrets. Taking care of the new life that blossmed and the ancient ruins that once had been brought there from a dying world. And a new protector came into being that surpassed them all and would furthermore tend the new born sun alone. With wings of an angel and the body of a dragon he was the supreme guardian of the valley, but he was not alone. And those other guardians had to be equally strong and wise to tend this most divine place.

This is the full pic of my last card
It had taken quite a while, mostly because of the architecture in the back, I really suck at drawing that, even more than usually.
Still I hope you like it and nother piece of little lore about my Adastra project.
I eventually aim to build decks for each tribe with it's two main synergies, for leonines this being cat as a creature tribal and enchantments.
Do you think it fits the setting? And can you imagine this card in a deck?
I would love to hear what you think folks^^
