Most one-off cards only really inspire a mechanic, but I looked for a different way to make "two cards from the same set" other than just "two cards with the same mechanic".
Abstemious Monk suggested a world where Archons were common as well or instead of Angels as agents of white mana in the world, and existed in smaller non-flying but equally awesome forms. Although you could extend them into multicolour -- this one could be W or U or both.
I'm not sure how the ability would be costed: it came from the name. Originally it was regeneration, but there's a few cards that do that already, I though it was interesting to have something that reset your position, but still needed investment afterward. It's obviously awesome if it meets a wrath effect.

Interesting. Looks rare or uncommon rather than mythic to me (OK, rare if it's also legendary), but otherwise looks good.
