Gwenna, the Eyes of Gaea, was an elven druid and scout from Dominaria during the time of the Sylex Blast.

History[ | ]

Gwenna was an elf who helped Harbin when he arrived on Argoth.

During the Sylex Blast, Gwenna was on the mainland, attacking Urza's shipyards in Korlis. She felt the ground tremble beneath her and heard the cry of Gaea as Argoth, her land, died. Gwenna noticed the sea was gone, leaving only broad patches of mud and rock. She realized what that meant - a tsunami. She shouted for her warriors to flee to the hills inland and broke into a loping run. She was halfway up the nearest hill when the first great waves, each the size of a small mountain, broke against the coastline, smashing everything in their path. [1]

About a century after the war, Gwenna sacrificed herself to help Temken and the other Survivors of the Sylex Blast to rebuild their society.[2]
