| 0:00.0 | I'm pulling my driveway. We all know what that means. It's time for another drive to work. |
| 0:06.6 | Okay. Today I'm going to continue with my Dragons of Tarkier podcast talking all about the design of |
| 0:14.2 | dragons of Tarkier. Last I left off, I had gotten to F4 Forest. |
| 0:25.5 | So I realized I had not talked a lot about the basic lands, just a little bit. |
| 0:33.0 | So one of the things is we were doing an alternate reality, right? |
| 0:34.3 | We were doing a different timeline. |
| 0:39.7 | And so one of the things that was really cute about the basic lands in general was that the artist, the art director went back to the artist that it did the original ones in |
| 0:44.2 | Constantar Kier and had them redo it with the same vantage point, but just subtle slight |

| 1:17.9 | and B, you just see a lot of dragons. One of the things that's pretty cool if you look at the art |
| 1:22.9 | is, I actually haven't checked this completely, but I believe almost every art in the set, somewhere in the art is a dragon. |
| 1:30.9 | I mean, sometimes it's just backwards in the sky. |
| 1:33.4 | You know, sometimes you can just peek around and go, oh, look at the sky, there's a dragon. |
| 1:37.5 | But anyway, I, uh, anyway, just a little nod to the basic lance. |
| 1:41.6 | Okay, let's move on. |
