Just bought and am looking through/sorting out my cards, lol.

This temple, it looks like some Alamo-reminiscent base of a building, someone in a ghost sheet standing on top, and of top of that person’s head is a crescent (moon?) with a globe in the middle. It’s set next to/at the bottom a cliffside, surrounded by green forest below, a little lake/river future further below, dead tree trunks framing the sides of the scene closer to the viewer. Link to the card for reference: https://www.mtgnexus.com/cards/doctor-who/88238-temple-of-mystery

Added context for why I’m asking: I’ve only watched NuWho, from the 9th to the end of the 12th/clara’s arc so far

    Came across this post by checking the Doctor Who hashtag on Mastodon and replied there. Doesn’t look like it got back to you; so, since I’ve been meaning to look into making a Lemmy account I’ll try this.

    That’ll be the Dark Tower. AKA Rassilon’s Tower. The Tomb of Rassilon.

      At least when browsing from lemmy.world & using the Boost mobile app, nah, I’m not seeing a comment from a mastodon-type account.

      Thank you so much!!

      After cursory-reading his bio, seems a shame I haven’t met/seen Rassilion yet. His impact to the universe seems like a spaghetti of importance. @.@

        Might be a fediverse quirk of not-quite seamless interconnection between systems. But since this is my second post on Lemmy I’ll take the opportunity to try links and spoilers. The Mastodon post is here.

        Looking at your context, you’ll have encountered the main NuWho incarnation of Rassilon in

        spoiler

        The End Of Time, 10’s regeneration story. He’s the big Time Lord cheese in that.

        And if you’ve finished Clara’s arc,

        spoiler

        then you’ll have seen a somewhat diminished incarnation of him as the Lord President that 12 deposes in Hell Bent.

        But there’s a lot of lore out there. A lot. And if you weren’t already familiar with Rassilon before his appearance in NuWho then his name in those moments could easily slip past.

      It’s just new art for an older card, the Temple cycle has been around (and reprinted many times) since 2013.

        True. I figured that Temple of Mystery was a reskin, like the Temple of Enlightenment one is actually the New New York hospital, not necessarily a temple temple. Card art link, from its scryfall page

        Imma be disappointed if this building art for Temple of Mystery is just someone’s hallucination v.v
