Stuffed Bear

Art of Grapple With

"I did. I enjoy throwbacks in art." Then perhaps you can shed some light on this thing that's been bugging me: What is going on in the art of "Grapple With the Past?" It's clearly some kind of reference to "Make a Wish" from original Innistrad, but I (like so many citizens of Innistrad) can't make sense of what's happening.

In “Make a Wish”, a little girl, holding a stuffed bear, is tossing a coin in the well to make a wish. In “Grapple with the Past”, we see the stuffed bear at the bottom of the well implying bad things happened to the little girl.

Mishra's Toy Philosophy

Why is every question about Mishra's Toy Workshop about how to use fewer toys? I thought the reason to play the card was so you can load up the table with action figures and matchbox cars, and maybe even a stuffed bear or two.

Exactly.
