Where it came from
The Celestus was released in 2021 as part of the Innistrad: Midnight Hunt expansion for Magic: The Gathering. Within the narrative of the set, the item serves as a central celestial device used by the humans of Innistrad to regulate the perpetual night brought on by a magical curse, acting as both a mechanical and symbolic tether to the sun.
Artist Jonas De Ro designed the illustration to evoke a sense of grand, arcane engineering typical of the Gothic horror aesthetic of the Innistrad plane. The artwork focuses on the intricate, clockwork nature of the device, emphasizing its celestial alignment and luminous glow, which was received by the player base as a visually striking representation of the expansion's core theme of light struggling against darkness.
