Blurb

The Brothers' War is over, and Urza alone survives. Yet victory has come at the cost of his sanity. Shattered, he wanders the planes. Urza has also become the wielder of tremendous power. Now he seeks the forces that corrupted his brother. When he finds them, they will know the vengeance of a Planeswalker.

Plot

After the Sylex Blast, Urza has ascended into a planeswalker and starts wandering across the myriad planes, looking for the Phyrexians who he holds responsible for the death of his brother Mishra and thus for all the destruction of the Brothers' War.

On his travels he meets the defective Phyrexian newt Xantcha who tries to help Urza in his crusade against her creators, but also has to find a cure for his growing insanity.

And from the depths of Phyrexia, Yawgmoth once again calls upon one of his most ancient servants, the demon Gix, to give him a second chance of invading Dominaria.
