I do like how these three cards suggest a deck archtype, but aren't so bold as to say "You must play these cards together". I'm not sure what the world here is like, but the idea of white going super-weenie control is kind of neat.
For Challenge # 062, based on Pierre's Abstemious Monk, following Archon of Renewal.
If many archons are expensive, you need enabling cards to make them interesting to put into a deck, hence this.
Abstemious Monk made me imagine cadres of monks specifically worshipping archons.
The name is based (loosely) on the greek plural, but envisages here as referring to archons collectively.
