A player, 5 June 2015
First is just clarification, following this ItVF question, I assumed that cards removes from the game cannot be removed/destroyed again, so created cards in Shugenja unit under Interrupting the Void's Flow effect will return into play normally. Am I right or they somehow get permanently removed like in any other "leaving play effect"?
Second is about timing in Forward Encampment Battle action: It says "...another's player action destroyed it or it's Personality." If I destroy follower myself (e.g. Legion of Toshigoku) and after that it's former Personality dies from ranged attack, can I bring legion back with FE? Or Personality is no longer considered it's after Legion entering discard pile?
Void Interrupt: Negate a Battle action. Destroy this Spell. Remove the caster's unit from the game, keeping all attachments and tokens, and ignoring leaving-play effects. Return it to play before the turn ends, ignoring entering-play costs and effects.
Battle, w, : Equip a target Follower or Spell in your discard pile if another player's action destroyed it or its Personality this battle.

Per the CR, when a Created Card leaves play, it ceases to exist. ItVF does not re-create it when it brings the unit back into the game, so the card will still be gone.
"Its Personality" requires the follower to be attached when the Personality is destroyed. Otherwise we could get some really weird interactions with cards that transfer attachments in battle.
