Weak when combined with Scorpions? Probably not because it provides a cheap buff and quanta acceleration in one.

Non Scorpion evaluation:
Typically 1 attack is valued at 1quanta+1draw.
According to blessing +3|3 is valued at 2quanta + 1draw(2=3-1).
Typically a pillar is valued at 0quanta+1draw.
Here you get 1 pillar and +1 attack for 1quanta+1draw rather than for 1quanta and 2 draws but at the cost of slowing the pillar part down.

Most people don't mix fire with life so your idea won't work.

usually things with 0 attack wouldn't do much gaining only +1/+0

Ahhh, very reminiscent of MTG nonbasic lands... (I've seen them, even though I don't play MTG)
But no! I have to say to have this card be unrestricted would be slack. For example, if one was to use a few on one turn, say 5 (this example guy has no pillars/towers), he could give 5 of his monsters a boost. Especially with air, it could quadruple from:
Unicorn Blitz and Dive(3)x2x2 = 12
Unicorn Blitz and Dive and a few (2) upped monoliths (3+1+1)x2x2 = 20
After this, the additional +1 is constant FOR FREE. The +1|+0 just stays there until endgame, which is quite OP, when there is an unrestricted supply of this. Especially if the upped one STILL creates quanta.
Already, Eclipse gives a bonus, but that comes at a cost.
Your one has no cost (instead, gain!) and a bonus.
Maybe if it created quanta for a set amount of turns OR if it created some by chance, OR if it created some every x amount of turns

I like your art, however :P
