Where it came from
The Ring Goes South is a card from the 2023 expansion set The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth, produced by Wizards of the Coast for the Magic: The Gathering trading card game. Released as part of the first-ever Universes Beyond set to feature a full, dedicated expansion based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendarium, the card depicts a pivotal moment in The Fellowship of the Ring where the group departs from Rivendell to begin their quest.
The artwork was created by illustrator Anna Steinbauer, who rendered the scene in a contemporary fantasy style consistent with the set's broader aesthetic. The design aims to capture the solemnity and scale of the journey through the mountains, serving as a mechanical representation of travel and narrative progression within the game's engine. Upon release, the set was widely received for its integration of high-fantasy lore into traditional game mechanics, drawing significant interest from both long-time players and fans of Tolkien’s literary work.
