D&D (2024) STORMBREAK: A TARKIR ADVENTURE & THUNDER OVER FORSAKEN ISLESA FORGOTTEN REALMS ADVENTURE

OK, having looked into the current storyline for Magic and where it is headed, this would make sense as a connection...and would also tie into WotC announcing the October Surprise book after the next year long storyline for Magic gers unveiled...

I actually have no idea what's going on with the Magic storyline. It is so rushed that I cannot keep up.
Like why are we going from tiny creatures to anime planar racing?
Now, both are cool ideas, but nothing gets to percolate any more.

Yeah, I can't generally keep up with it myself: currently, they are closing in on the end of part 2 of a 3 year storyline that deals with interplanetary travel being opened up wide to non-Planeswalkers after the Phryexian bid for multiversal domination: part 3 starts after Tarkir wraps up part 2 in April, so it would make sense if the D&D team were holding back on a product that involves plot and setting developments that the Magic team hasn't tipped yet. They haven't released any Tarkir story beats yet, for instance.

Part 3 really starts next year in the winter, like February. After Tarkir in April it's pure Universes Beyond for the rest of the year.

Edit: I got Edge of Eternity August 1st, although that technically it set just outside of the MtG multiverse. That us the start of the final arc of the metronome megaarc.

Gotcha. Still seems thwt keeping some Magic story beats close to their chest would be a good reason to play coy with the October book, were that book a Magic book.

Doesn't sound related to the Tarkir Adventure, but I do think a "Blond Eternities Cpmpanion seems plausiblstill for October.

I'm interested, what are these "Blond Eternities?!"

Apologies, "Blind Eternities" rather. And that is the Magic the Gatherijg term for the transitive plane between world ls that Planewalkers move through when they transition from realm to realm. If yoy can term the traditional D&D cosmology as "The Great Wheel," then the traditional Magic the Gathering cosmology is "The Blind Eternties."

Basically, I am suggesting a Magic the Gathering general multiverse book would make sense, and allow them to bring the Msgic D&D books from before they started working on 2024 to come forward mechanically.

I know, I just found it funny and couldn't resist!

FYI, in my setting the Blind Eternities = Far Realm and I call the MtG cosmos the Aether Reality (vs the Great Wheel Reality) and Blind Eternities are the transitive reality that connects them

Welcome to the Salon of the Blond Eternities - an interplanar hub of effortless beauty, divine relaxation, and cosmic rejuvenation. It is suffused with infinite golden strands, and a shimmering mist infusing everything with a subtle coconut-and-jojoba scent, endlessly lathering and rinsing the cosmos.

I am unsure what the official cosmological connection is. Yet descriptively.

The Blind Eternities seems to be the same thing as the Astral Plane.

Magic The Gathering is a different "Great Wheel", but both Great Wheels exist somewhere in the infinite Astral Plane.

Perhaps a bit more like the Etheral? But also different from either?

At any rate the big D&D push at MsgicCon 2025 is interesting.
