I *DO* want to take a moment to gush about this card, tho. So, one of the first mtg short stories I ever read was "Gathering of the Taradomnu," by Mark Shepard. It's about Allenal's mother, Terena, a Ruadach elven princess (and aspiring wizard) who is tasked with finding the Taradomnu vines needed to make a cure for her dying father, who has been poisoned by her treacherous and ambitious brother.
("Elfhame" -> name for the elven kingdoms in Llanowar)
The story itself is a serviceable little quest wherein Terena finds a secret garden of the Taradomnu that her brother hasn't destroyed, confronts him in a battle where she is finally able to unlock her magic potential and strike him down by turning his own magic back against him, and returns to claim the throne of Ruadach from her brother's son (She becomes pregnant with Allenal during the course of the story, which is a plot point as having an heir already ready to go is a requirement to take the throne). It's a decent story overall, but one I never really thought would be mentioned again at this point in mtg story.
It touches on an interesting bit of Dominaria world-building as well. The Ruadach elves had, under Terena's father's reign, allowed humans to settle in a town within their territory. Terena's brother, Beothach, slew all the adults in this village and sold the youths into slavery. One of these orphans (and Allenal's father), Grenher, assisted Terena in her quest, and under Terena's reign, the Ruadach would expand their welcoming of humans and human culture (often through intermarriage) to become one of the most open-minded of the relatively xenophobic Llanowar elfhames. They are also the most mercantile, doing trade with outsiders from several city-states built along the rivers and lakes of eastern Llanowar.
Thus, I think, the white soldier-making ability to reflect this kinship~
