One of the problems with taking away the sparks from both Huatli AND Kiora is that it's now significantly harder for them to meet and talk about how much they love dinosaurs and leviathans

Have you read the Dnd Theros book, and if so, is there anything or anyone from it you would want to include in the next theros set?
Also, jumping a bit off of the Avacyn in theros post you made a bit back, what characters do you think they could reasonably bring back from the dead (like from the accessible afterlives in places such a Theros, Ravnica, Innistrahd) in some form without getting the feeling of comic-book-characters-never-really-die
I haven't read any of the DnD books fully. Mostly the Strixhaven one because of a campaign that didnt work out in the end :(
Honestly, I don't think there are any good options to bring back besides Avacyn. The thing about most other options that they wouldn't have such devotion to them as she did at her peak. Also she is the most traditionally "godlike" within the molds of Theros (as in, a being who is directly in touch with the prayers of her followers)

Jace: Every time I lay down to sleep, a little voice in my head reminds me of every time I made a fool of myself throughout the day and I lay awake waiting for it to stop.
Chandra:
Chandra: Fight 'im.
Jace:... What?
Chandra: It's in your head. You're a telepath. Fight 'im.
Jace: That's not how it works... I think?
