Its an oddly quiet time forDisney Lorcana.

Disney Lorcana is introducing a highly-requested mechanic in Archazia’s Island.

Weve had no Lorecast presentation to introduce the set, and not a single card revealed yet.

I wrote this beforedual-ink cardsand Ravensburger Play Hub were announced.

Guess it wasnt so quiet after all!

Why give us so many details about this years upcoming sets rather than focus on Marchs Archazias Island?

Three different background options in DND in a split image.

Why this sudden change in reveal strategy?

We can see a narrative cycle taking form.

The second year of Lorcana repeated that cycle.

MTG Counterspell Cards Three in a line.

We can expect that Fabled will be another festive interlude that lays the groundwork for the next Big Bad.

Fableds tagline is Welcome to the Story, which is what first got my wheels turning.

So heres the theory: Reign of Jafar ends with a big, world-shattering cliffhanger.

Fabled Lorcana

Then, instead of picking that thread back up in Fabled, it leaves us hanging.

The consequences of Reign of Jafar wont be explored until Year 4.

Year 3 is all about the creation myth of Lorcana.

Lorcana Legendary Rares Ursula’s Return-1

Personally, Im still wondering where Ursula returned from in Ursualas Return.

This could tie in well with the idea of an origin story year.
