Enlightenment Question

L5R CCG Rules board, 31 August 2011

A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Lets say I have 4 Rings in play; Earth, Water, Fire, Void [[ALL have been played via text]] One with the World the Ring of Void to put it into my Hand Discard it to Draw a Card, for whatever reason One with the World again to put it into my Hand One with the World a Final Time from My Hand into Play Ring of Air ??? Victory? --- To simplify the question. You HAVE played the Ring of Void by it text, but you removed it from play; putting it face down, when it went into your hand. Does it still loose card memory? Does it forget that it was played via it's own text?

Enlightenment victory (emphasis added): "A player wins immediately through an Enlightenment Victory when he or she has in play five Ring cards, each with a different element keyword, and each of which last entered play by its own text (as opposed to other effects that can put a Ring into play)."

You do not win an enlightenment victory because your Ring of the Void did not last entered play by its own text but thanks to your Spell. It does not matter that you put it into play by its own text during the game, what matters is how he entered play for the last time.
