Destroy target creature. Create two 1/1 red Warrior creature tokens. They gain haste until end of turn. Sacrifice them at the beginning of the next end step.
Dariya's first mistake was thinking they could short the Mardu trader on a deal. Their last was not considering the trader would bring backup.

Where it came from
Salt Road Skirmish was released as part of the Fate Reforged expansion for Magic: The Gathering in 2015, a set deeply rooted in the time-travel narrative of the Tarkir block. This card serves as a mechanical representation of the conflicts within the Abzan Houses, a faction characterized by their endurance and reliance on ancestral support, as they navigated a shifting timeline where dragons had returned to reclaim the plane.
The artwork was commissioned from Arif Wijaya, who aimed to capture the gritty, tactical nature of desert warfare central to the Abzan aesthetic. The design emphasizes the 'bolster' mechanic, a thematic reflection of the Abzan practice of reinforcing their ranks in the heat of battle. Upon release, the card was widely received by players as a functional utility piece for Limited formats, noted for its ability to manipulate creature stats during combat.
