Ub here’s the million dollar question if she rams into teferi and mentions Vorinclex/the monster of kaldheim will teferi inform her that was a phyrexian and who it was/start the chain reaction that teferi will know now that the new phyrexians cracked it on planar travel?
I believe its the event of Shadows Over Innistrad from Clear Shot.

The Travails took much from Innistrad, but faith is a hard thing to break. Even when the object of that faith falls as hard and far as Avacyn fell.
For weeks after the Travails, her wolves wanted nothing to do with human society, and she could hardly blame them. To walk among man was to breathe in their sorrows and bear their weight.
Nah, it's typed human. We do know elves used to exist in Innistrad, so it might have elven blood in it.
We do know about Innistradian elves? I was under the impression that humans are the only non-monstrous humanoids on Innistrad. Could you provide me with some source on the elves, good sir?
Elves are supposedly the source for the werewolf curse. Then they went extinct soemwhere down the line.
I don't know how canon that is. As far as I know it was only ever mentioned in behind the scenes "this was our original idea for the origin of this" with nothing in official sources contradicting or supporting it. So unless it was put in the SOI artbook or something, I think it's like "maybe?!" level of canon.

^^^This I believe it was Brady Dommermuth (who was the lead of the creative team/story at the time) on the old wizard boards.
Personally I think its just to help the witch-y look and if you really want a reason we just had Emrakul giving everyone body mods. , this witch could have just gotten lucky and gotten pointy ears instead of eyes on her arms.

"Arlinn has the feeling Chandra would help with whatever it was Adeline asked of her, but they can't let their eyes stray too far from their goal here."
The retcons (intentional or unintenrional) are REALLY getting on my nerves.
- there is a crapload of images with a moon in it. Guess on how many of them the Gatewatch glyph that was seared there when Emrakul sealed herself in the moon is visible?
I will spare you the time. NONE. No reminder of that, nothing has happened, move along.
- Thraben Exorcism depicts Kaya...with her daggers. Both of them were lost during the Kaldheim story and replaced by axes.

She could have gotten more daggers later, I'd think she have more than the pair she left with to Kaldheim.

Theoretically, Innistrad storyline may happen before Kaldheim. But the art omission is more possible...
There are strange objects near the moon in some of the art - just light spots, but they look like hedron network established around the silver moon (most prominent on Tovolar card). Who knows what this means...

I kinda get the feeling that it's happening concurrently with Zendicar Rising, hence why Jace is gone.
"Arlinn has the feeling Chandra would help with whatever it was Adeline asked of her, but they can't let their eyes stray too far from their goal here."
Tovolar is a fantastic villain. There is a kindness to him, a gentleness that makes him even more terrifying. It's a chilling thing to see him through Arlinn's eyes - a violent and imposing figure on one hand, who all the same understands her, accepts her, and cares about her, even as he embodies the monstrosity she fears in herself. You can see how deeply he haunts her, and the fact he says so little gives each of his words that much more weight.
It's been a while since we've had a Magic antagonist who was genuinely intimidating, or entwined with the hero/heroine in such an intimate way. Tovolar comes across as a well-balanced character - both a thoughtful, nuanced monster and a fearsome, looming threat. I suspect he'll prove memorable.
I'm invested in this story now, and in Arlinn's journey.

Its call star rain and its a side effect of Emrakul being in the moon.

To me, I kinda read Chandra's attitude toward Arlinn as the off-Kaladesh mother, or cool aunt. I could be wrong, but since Kaladesh, really since BFZ they have given her a more innocent, childlike side and it's something I really love. Her being gay is nice, but she's also totally the little sister of the Gatewatch. <3
Idk, I'm happy either way. both sets of feelings for Arlinn are good, positive ones. as long as they don't kill Arlinn just to have Chandra be upset.

Project Booster Fun makes it less fun to open a booster.
That was good, and much needed. It spells out exactly what the Travails were, updates us on the Emrakul situation, and informs us on exactly how much time has passed since we last saw Innistrad.
That Gisa letter at the end was gold. I'm sad about Thraben, but they played the dark humor angle very well. Gisa and Geralf are great characters, but since they often perform the role of villainous comic relief, it's important to keep them dark, or else they will just become harmless and silly. Fortunately, Gisa still seems to retain her edge, in her endearing, psychopathic way.
The cringy Halloween puns at the end, I could have done without. Come on, Wizards, you know literally no one in your target demographic finds those even ironically cute or funny. Stop it.
Also fully says that the events of Shadows Over Innistrad was two years ago which does roughly line up with he rest of the gatewatch timeline. Also shown that the Direwolves are side effect of Emrakul who seems to still be influencing the plane as other cards have noted "an odd moon" is making stuff happen on Innistrad. Eldritch Moon indeed.
