What it does
Sacrifice this creature: Search your library for a basic land card, put that card onto the battlefield tapped, then shuffle.
There were no tombstones in orochi territory. Slain warriors were buried with a tree sapling, so they would become a part of the forest after death.

Where it came from
The Sakura-Tribe Elder card, originally introduced in the Champions of Kamigawa set, is a foundational piece of Magic: The Gathering history. The Junior APAC series release was designed as part of a promotional initiative aimed at the growing player base in the Asia-Pacific region. These cards were distributed through local organized play events, serving as a gateway for younger players to engage with the game's evolving mechanics and lore.
The artwork for this specific print maintains the aesthetic established for the Sakura-Tribe creature type, characterized by its nature-focused, Shinto-inspired design. Illustrators for the Kamigawa block sought to evoke a sense of spiritual connection between the tribe and the landscape. The card became a staple in tournament play due to its utility in resource management, leading to widespread recognition among competitive players who value both its tactical efficiency and its thematic contribution to the set's identity.
