The Law's Strength

Battle: Choose your performing Courtier or Magistrate and target a Personality: Move him home. If this did not move him home, destroy him.

Halls of the Forgotten

Reaction: After another player's Battle action targets your Berserker: Delay its effects on him until after this battle ends.

Just a quick question about this, if I play a Law's Strength on a Berserker and my opponent delays it, will said zerker blow up after the battle has resolved? The Law's Strength really can't move someone home that's already home.

Cheers and thanks

Too Close to Home Halls of the Forgotten The Law's Strength

I target a Berserker with The Law's Strength while Too Close to Home is in effect and the Crab player reacts with Halls of the Forgotten. What happens?
