  2. 2008-10-01

    You target an opponent when you cast Forgotten Lore. The opponent chooses a card in your graveyard as Forgotten Lore resolves. After that choice is made, you’re given the option to pay one green mana. If you do, the targeted opponent must choose a different card, if there is one. (If there isn’t one, this part is skipped.) Then you’re given the option to pay one green mana again. As long as you keep paying one green mana, the process continues. As soon as you decline to pay one green mana, the last card that was chosen by the opponent is put into your hand.
