Mysterious Pathlighter

Adventure creatures already ask for a lot of tempo: cast the spell half, bank the creature half in exile, come back for the body later. This anthem sidesteps all of that sequencing and just rewards the type. Every Adventure creature you control walks in a full point of stats bigger, whether or not it ever went on its adventure, which means the payoff is decoupled from the mechanic's usual two-step. That is the clever wrinkle. Adventure was built around delayed gratification, and this flips the incentive: the counter arrives on the plain cast, on the recast out of exile, on the flickered re-entry, on the token copy. It also stacks. Two Pathlighters means two counters per Adventure body, and because the buff is a static replacement effect rather than a trigger, nobody gets a chance to answer it on the way down; the creature simply exists at its larger size. The 2/2 flyer attached to that engine is modest, and the card is doing nothing outside a critical mass of Adventure creatures, but as a lord for a mechanic that rarely got one, it fills a specific gap: the payoff that makes going wide with fairy-tale bodies a plan rather than a value pile.
