Where it came from
Hour of Promise was released in 2017 as part of the Hour of Devastation expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. It was designed to reflect the narrative climax of the Amonkhet block, where the god-pharaoh Nicol Bolas returns to the plane of Amonkhet to harvest the lives of its inhabitants. The card's mechanics, which allow a player to search their library for two land cards and put them onto the battlefield, evoke the gathering of resources necessary for the catastrophic events depicted in the set's storyline.
The artwork for the card was created by artist Titus Lunter. His design emphasizes the scale and atmosphere of the plane, capturing the moment of dread and impending doom as the horizon shifts under the influence of the approaching elder dragon. Upon release, the card was widely discussed in competitive circles for its utility in ramp strategies, becoming a staple in various formats where players sought to accelerate their resource development to play high-cost threats.
