Aether Refinery Extended Art
Aether Refinery is a blue focused artifact that leans into tempo and targetted mana acceleration. If you would gain one or more blue mana you instead gain twice that amount, which can smooth your early turns and fuel back to back plays. Its activated ability taps to produce one blue mana and then you may pay additional blue mana. If you do, you create an X/X black Aetherborn creature token where X is the total blue mana paid this way. In commander games from the Modern Horizons 3 cycle this card often shifts the pace of the table and creates threatening value as you invest into the token engine.
The flavor hints at invention and consequence, with Avarti Vja’s work stabilizing raw aether and opening the door to life beyond calculation. This Extended Art print preserves the machine’s gleaming, intricate design while underscoring how a single spark of blue magic can cascade into new threats. It’s a practical piece for boards that seek consistent mana growth paired with scalable potential.
