Temporal Anchor
Characteristics
Origin Dominaria
Creator Saheeli Rai
User Teferi Akosa
Status Unknown

The Temporal Anchor is a device crafted by Saheeli Rai to heighten a planeswalker's magic strength and precision.[1] It consists of a platform with leather straps and wires within a sculpture of swooping curves made of fiery orange metal.[2] The anchor is powered by the Powerstone that was removed from the Weatherlight after its compleation. This power source had originally been infused by Urza with the white mana from Serra's Realm. Another component of the Anchor is the Moonsilver Key.[3]

History

Saheeli, Kaya and Teferi installed the Temporal Anchor at Urza's Tower to send Teferi back in time to determine the operation of the Sylex.[1] Prototype tests were hindered by the ghost of Sharaman, general of Urza's armies, who was hostile to any furthering of Urza's agenda - including any war against Phyrexians.[3] Although Teferi was meant to be a mere observer in the timestream, they found out that he manifested corporally and influenced certain people.[4] The goal was the detonation of the Sylex and the end of the war in 64 AR, but locating it was difficult, landing at the midst of The Dark Age, 21 years too late;[4] the Fall of Kroog, 36 years too early;[5] and an unnamed battle in the midst of the War, 20 years too early.
