Provenance

Where it came from

Runesword was released in 1995 as part of the Chronicles expansion for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. This set was notable for being the first compilation set produced by Wizards of the Coast, designed to bring back popular or hard-to-find cards from earlier sets like Legends, Antiquities, and The Dark to a wider audience of players.

The card features artwork by Anson Maddocks, who was a foundational artist in the early days of the game. His illustration depicts a jagged, glowing blade inscribed with mystical symbols, reflecting the high-fantasy aesthetic that defined the game's initial visual identity. While the card is a standard rare from the era, it remains a nostalgic inclusion for collectors who appreciate the distinct art style and mechanical design philosophy of mid-nineties Magic expansions.
