A player, 13 March 2010

Hello,

During my Dynasty Phase I play Mirumoto Eikaru from one of my provinces and I use Secluded Outpost to pay for him. Eikaru's trait enables me to draw a card, which turns out to be a follower. The questions: May I attach that new follower using Secluded Outpost's trait (I mean wording "after he enters play" on the Outpost), or not? Which card's trait should be resolved first?

Mirumoto Eikaru: After Eikaru enters play from one of your provinces: Draw a card.

Secluded Outpost: Bow this card: Produce 4 Gold. If you are paying for a Personality, you may attach an attachment to him from your hand after he enters play, paying 4 less Gold.

Many thanks.
