Shocking, I know, that someone is trying to use Aye/Orun, but I have a quick question. Is Action timing such that I can use High Orun to reduce the cost of, for example, Revelations? -- - Gregory Stuart Pettigrew

High Orun cannot be played until after the action card is played, so its effect cannot be retro-actively applied to the action card. See also, Magic of the Smith + Ankara Citadel.

High Orun only reduces the costs of cards played after playing High Orun, though, so that is enough to disqualify the action card played to start the action.

[ quoted text not captured ] That's the answer I suspected I'd hear. It was one of those "When does an Action start, really?" questions, since you can play Action Modifiers any time during an action. [ quoted text not captured ]
