(As this Saga enters and after your draw step, add a lore counter.)
I, II — Scry 2, then draw a card.
III — Exile this Saga, then return it to the battlefield transformed under your control.
Whenever you cast a spell, create a 1/1 colorless Spirit creature token with "This token can't block or be blocked by non-Spirit creatures."
Exhaust — Waterbend {20}: Take an extra turn after this one. (While paying a waterbend cost, you can tap your artifacts and creatures to help. Each one pays for {1}. Activate each exhaust ability only once.)

What a The Legend of Kuruk // Avatar Kuruk deck wants
The plan the Forge derives for this commander: the roles it fills and how many of each.
- 16× A creature that HAS the keyword the commander's trigger counts — a card that merely says the word is not one

- 9× Find the exact card the plan needs
