The Maelstrom

Plane — Alara

When you planeswalk to The Maelstrom and at the beginning of your upkeep, you may reveal the top card of your library. If a permanent card is revealed this way, you may put it onto the battlefield. If you revealed a card but didn't put it onto the battlefield, put it on the bottom of your library.

Whenever chaos ensues, return target permanent card from your graveyard to the battlefield.

What it wants, and what it gives
