I am not sure what this card is doing at common here. As far as I can tell, graveyard and discard strategies are few, and there doesn't seem to be much that makes me want to devote a deck slot to this, aside from being really damn good.

This is really damn good.

I agree with what Mal said, although my first reaction was excitement, because I <3 red, and this is really good.

Probably too good for common. :(

Flavor text edit.

"At the beginning of your end step" -> "After your draw step"

"an things"? "all things"? "any things"?

The full quote is:

> For in the making of all things in that land he had the chief part, and he wrought there many beautiful and shapely works both openly and in secret. Of him comes the lore and knowledge of the Earth and of an things that it contains: whether the lore of those that make not, but seek only for the understanding of what is, or the lore of an craftsmen: the weaver, the shaper of wood, and the worker in metals; and the tiller and husbandman also, though these last and all that deal with things that grow and bear fruit must look also to the spouse of Aulë, Yavanna Kementári.

I can find one edition where that has been modified to "all things" so maybe though most keep it as "an things". Huh...

Well, since you are changing the text already for clarity, that seems like a good place to do so as well. What does it mean?
