A few weeks ago, it was "Choose a Side" week on the Mothership. For those who have been under a rock, it refers to the war occurring on Mirrodin during Mirrodin Besieged between the Mirrans who remained on Mirrodin after Memnarch's fall and the Phyrexians who built themselves up from a singe drop of oil brought inadvertently to Mirrodin by Karn.
This war has real consequences, exemplified by the mystery surrounding the third set of the block, codenamed Action. Yes, even still, we know only the codename of the set. But what we do know is that it's either going to be Mirrodin Pure or New Phyrexia, and it all depends on who wins this war.
Who's going to win? What is the ultimate fate of Mirrodin? And what about Karn, held in the core of Mirrodin and being manipulated by the five Phyrexian Praetors to be the new Father of Machines?
No one (at least, no one outside Wizards of the Coast) knows the answers to these questions for sure, but I've certainly heard a lot of smart people making some very confident assertions.
Stay with me, dear readers. I'll tell you everything.
Today on Journey to Nowhere, we'll look at the facts, I'll give you my thoughts and conclusions, and you can decide for yourself if you want to be on the winning side (whichever one you think that may be).
