Lore & Trivia
Card Lore
Caves of Koilos is a mountainous location in Dominaria that housed a permanent planar portal between Dominaria and Phyrexia, serving as a crucial nexus during the Thran Empire, the Brothers' War, and the Phyrexian Invasion. This site was instrumental in key events involving planeswalkers Urza and Mishra, and later became the entry point for the demon Gix into Dominaria.

Mentioned in Lore
Did You Know?
💡 In prerevisionist sources, Urza named the place 'koilos', the High Argivian word for 'secret'. This was later repeated by Xantcha to Ratepe. However, Vault of Whispers flavor text implies the location was already called Koilos during the Thran period.
💡 The name is likely borrowed from or inspired by Ancient Greek koilos, meaning 'hollow' or 'concave'.
