[[The Long Cold Darkness]] is the second chapter in the four-part event series, [[A Journey Through History]] (AJTH), launched in May 2018 with the [[Dominaria]] set.  Each chapter is run as a weekday PvE event, typically with two events being run in the same week.
 +
 
 +
Unlike other single-player events without charges, winning on a node you've already beaten continues to earn ribbons, so it is possible to collect all rewards simply by repeating a preferred opponent. This is true of all events in AJTH.
 +
 
 +
The Long Cold Darkness changed from [[Standard]] to [[Legacy]] in November 2019 (v3.9). Originally, players received a bonus of a particular story-related Dominaria {{Ability|Saga}} card in their hand on the first turn of each node, but the bonus cards were later removed.

Unlike other single-player events without charges, winning on a node you've already beaten continues to earn ribbons, so it is possible to collect all rewards simply by repeating a preferred opponent. This is true of all events in AJTH.

The Long Cold Darkness changed from Standard to Legacy in November 2019 (v3.9). Originally, players received a bonus of a particular story-related Dominaria Saga card in their hand on the first turn of each node, but the bonus cards were later removed.
