Eldraine is a storybook world of quests and castles, knights and wizards, wicked warlocks and fantastical creatures. Once, valiant knights would venture from five royal courts to fulfill noble quests—but the invasion of the horrific Phyrexians from another world changed all that and left the kingdom in ruins.
The realm and the wilds of Eldraine were introduced to players of Magic: The Gathering with 2019's Throne of Eldraine set. The new Wilds of Eldraine set presents the world in the wake of the Phyrexian invasion, leaving behind the knights and castles and delving deep into the strange and mysterious wilds. Here, giants lumber through the clouds, faeries make mischief, and witches cackle over bubbling cauldrons.

The Wilds
Past the courts, across the stream, into the woods—there lie the wilds, the most magical, strange, and dangerous lands in all Eldraine. In contrast to the order and structure of the realm, the wilds are unpredictable and not united under any one system of government.
The lands of the wilds are just as untamed and diverse as the creatures that live there. Magic runs rampant, manifesting in strange and often beautiful ways. It can be alluring, empowering, and restorative. It can also be repellent, enervating, and destructive.
Countless species of sapient creatures dwell in the wilds, including humans. In addition to those described in this collection, many creatures from the Monster Manual and other sources live in the wilds of Eldraine:
