BUG - Consumed by History not properly granting unearth if the creature is brought back by Scintillating Encore or a similar effect
Consumed by History did not properly grant unearth when my Spirit Mascot was brought back by Scintillating Encore. The creature was correctly brought back with perpetual +2/+0, but when it died on a later turn it did not have the perpetual unearth 5 that it should have had. Scintillating Encore is not a replacement effect, so my understanding is that the creature should have had unearth perpetually, which I could have used on later turns.
Steps to reproduce:
1. play a nontoken creature with 3 or less toughness
2. cast Scintillating Encore on the creature
3. after Scintillating Encore has resolved, cast Consumed by History
Platform: PC
Actual Results:
The creature is brought back with perpetual +2/+0, but does not have perpetual unearth 5. It does not have perpetual unearth 5 if you hover over the creature while it is still on the battlefield, and also does not have unearth 5 when it is in the graveyard after being destroyed later.
Expected results:
The creature should return to the battlefield with +2/+0, but should also have the unearth 5 keyword when you hover over the card. When the creature is destroyed on a later turn, it should still have unearth 5, and I should be able to use the unearth ability from my graveyard.
Relevant Screenshot: see screenshot attached and see log files attached
Workaround: no relevant workaround
This occurred in a premier alchemy draft event.

The creature card has to still be in the graveyard when uneath is given to it. Scintilating Encore most likely returned the creature before that ability was granted, and thus the creature could not be granted that ability.
Disable autoordering of triggers, order the triggers in the correct order, and the card will have uneath.
