  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Reverent Silence||NEM}} || Meanwhile, the rebellion has grown much stronger, bolstered by their successful raid on the Stronghold. Eladamri's Skyshroud elves have joined with the forces of the [[Rathi Tribes|Kor, Vec, and Dal]], and together they begin preparations to seize the Stronghold once and for all. Despite this, he mourns the loss of his daughter.
  +

Ostensibly as a display of power, Crovax kills all the hostages, impaling them on flowstone spikes. However, they soon discover an ulterior motive behind Crovax's slaughter- he draws power from death itself, feeding on the life force of those he kills.
  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Stronghold Biologist||NEM}},<br />{{card|Stronghold Machinist||NEM}} || Ertai bides his time in the Stronghold, believing himself incapable of defeating Crovax for the title of Evincar and pessimistic about [[Dominaria (plane)|Dominaria]]'s chances against the might of Phyrexia in the coming war.

|-
  +
| {{card|Sivvi's Ruse||NEM}},<br />{{card|Infiltrate||NEM}} || After his meeting with the oracle, Eladamri decides he must infiltrate the Stronghold, with the aim of destroying the ''Predator''. He does this by disguising ten warriors, including the young Vec rebel [[Lin Sivvi]], as Rathi soldiers, who successfully deceive the Stronghold guards and bring him before Belbe. He recognizes the being who was once his daughter and flies into a rage, attacking her and scorning her as an abomination, before being taken to the dungeon.
  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Accumulated Knowledge||NEM}} || After enduring a harsh interrogation by Greven, Eladamri manages to escape and finds Takara (the real one) imprisoned nearby. Freeing her, they meet up with some of the rebel soldiers and retreat to the Evincar's map room, where Takara explains what she knows of the Phyrexians' plans.

|-
  +
| {{card|Dominate||NEM}} || Unbeknownst to anyone, Volrath has secretly returned to the Stronghold under the guise of a Kor spy. Shortly before Crovax's coronation, which he has staged a coup and taken Ertai captive to ensure, Volrath reveals himself to Greven and drafts him into his plan to retake his throne as Evincar.
  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Vicious Hunger||NEM}},<br />{{card|Dark Triumph||NEM}} || Volrath interrupts Crovax's coronation, and Belbe declares that the Evincar will be decided by combat. Though Volrath initially {{card|Volrath the Fallen||NEM|title=has the upper hand}}, Crovax is able to replenish his strength by killing the assembled courtiers. Seeing this, Ertai realizes that Crovax will inevitably win, so he uses magic to throw Volrath off-balance at a critical moment and allow Crovax to defeat him.
  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Belbe's Portal||NEM}} || Belbe meets the rebels in the {{card|Dream Halls||STH}}, revealing to them that she has hidden a [[planar portal]] there and wants to help them escape. As Crovax and his soldiers batter down the doors, Takara and Lin Sivvi escape through the portal to Dominaria. Before going through himself, Eladamri uses the remainder of the poison that killed Avila to kill Belbe, seeing it as a mercy.
  +
|-
  +
| {{card|Topple||NEM}} || With Crovax now firmly installed as Evincar of Rath, he punishes Greven for his role in Volrath's return and spares Ertai's life for his role in his downfall. Devastated by Belbe's death, Ertai allows himself to be altered with Phyrexian technology and resigns himself to a life of servitude. Volrath is publicly executed- he is injected with flowstone, and at Ertai's command it disassembles, tearing his body apart. As he dies, he sees the blue skies of Dominaria begin to replace the gray skies of Rath.
 
|-
 
|-
| <c>Dark Triumph</c> <br/> <c>Topple</c> || Now the uncontested Evincar of Rath, Crovax organise a public execution of Volrath: he inject him with flowstone in his bloodstream, and uses his control over the substance to disintegrate his rival from the inside. Volrath, agonising, dies seeing the sky of Dominaria above his head: the Planeshift has just begun.

Stronghold Discipline In a bid to prove his worthiness as Evincar to Belbe, Crovax assumes control of the Stronghold's army and departs on a mission to the Skyshroud Forest crush Eladamri and his rebellion. His tyrannical command quickly makes him both hated and feared amongst his troops.

Despite this, he mourns the loss of his daughter.
Skyshroud Claim While Crovax's army is on their way to Skyshroud, the rebel forces launch a surprise attack on their camp, killing over half the troops and routing the army.
Massacre Defeated, Crovax returns to the Stronghold to find that Greven, Ertai, and Belbe enacted a plan to capture thousands of hostages from the leading families of the Kor, Vec, and Dal as insurance against a potential revolt upon Crovax's defeat. Ostensibly as a display of power, Crovax kills all the hostages, impaling them on flowstone spikes. However, they soon discover an ulterior motive behind Crovax's slaughter- he draws power from death itself, feeding on the life force of those he kills.
Stronghold Biologist,
Stronghold Machinist
Ertai bides his time in the Stronghold, believing himself incapable of defeating Crovax for the title of Evincar and pessimistic about Dominaria's chances against the might of Phyrexia in the coming war. However, he finds himself growing close with Belbe, and begins trying to formulate a plan to escape with her.
Overlaid Terrain As the Rathi Overlay draws nearer, parts of Rath's terrain begin to manifest on Dominaria. In a crisis of conscience, Belbe tampers with the Stronghold's flowstone generator in an attempt to sabotage the coming overlay.
Oracle's Attendants Meanwhile, Eladamri meets with the Oracle en-Vec, who gives him two prophecies- first that his destiny lies in Stronghold, which he will enter in chains, and second that a door will be offered to him leading to "a land of light and color", which he must enter.
Sivvi's Ruse,
Infiltrate
After his meeting with the oracle, Eladamri decides he must infiltrate the Stronghold, with the aim of destroying the Predator. He does this by disguising ten warriors, including the young Vec rebel Lin Sivvi, as Rathi soldiers, who successfully deceive the Stronghold guards and bring him before Belbe. He recognizes the being who was once his daughter and flies into a rage, attacking her and scorning her as an abomination, before being taken to the dungeon.
Accumulated Knowledge After enduring a harsh interrogation by Greven, Eladamri manages to escape and finds Takara (the real one) imprisoned nearby. Freeing her, they meet up with some of the rebel soldiers and retreat to the Evincar's map room, where Takara explains what she knows of the Phyrexians' plans.
Sivvi's Valor,
Off Balance,
Lashknife
Meanwhile, Lin Sivvi and the other rebels attempt to destroy the Predator, but are discovered and raise the Stronghold's alarms. They are forced to abandon their mission and fight their way through the Stronghold, eventually meeting up with Eladamri and Takara.
Dominate Unbeknownst to anyone, Volrath has secretly returned to the Stronghold under the guise of a Kor spy. Shortly before Crovax's coronation, which he has staged a coup and taken Ertai captive to ensure, Volrath reveals himself to Greven and drafts him into his plan to retake his throne as Evincar.
Vicious Hunger,
Dark Triumph
Volrath interrupts Crovax's coronation, and Belbe declares that the Evincar will be decided by combat. Though Volrath initially has the upper hand, Crovax is able to replenish his strength by killing the assembled courtiers. Seeing this, Ertai realizes that Crovax will inevitably win, so he uses magic to throw Volrath off-balance at a critical moment and allow Crovax to defeat him.
Belbe's Portal Belbe meets the rebels in the Dream Halls, revealing to them that she has hidden a planar portal there and wants to help them escape. As Crovax and his soldiers batter down the doors, Takara and Lin Sivvi escape through the portal to Dominaria. Before going through himself, Eladamri uses the remainder of the poison that killed Avila to kill Belbe, seeing it as a mercy.
Topple With Crovax now firmly installed as Evincar of Rath, he punishes Greven for his role in Volrath's return and spares Ertai's life for his role in his downfall. Devastated by Belbe's death, Ertai allows himself to be altered with Phyrexian technology and resigns himself to a life of servitude. Volrath is publicly executed- he is injected with flowstone, and at Ertai's command it disassembles, tearing his body apart. As he dies, he sees the blue skies of Dominaria begin to replace the gray skies of Rath.
