No. Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent may be stopped by reduction of HL. Like any action that counts against HL in M/H phase.
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.

Not sure whether you intended the English double-negative...

It can't be targeted by Marvel's Told to prevent the stored item from being returned.

It can [amended: can't] be targeted by Marvel's Told (by both players) afterwards, removing the 2 points regardless of what type they are. :roll:

I like to mention that playing an item requires the correct site and tapping the character as the most basic of playability requirements.
Muster Disperses requires a roll and thus a chance to fail. Factions too require a roll and thus failure is possible, of course besides using Red Arrow.

Is there any interest about allowing unstoring of items?
Any talk about having the hazard in question target one item at a stored site? Allowing the target player to choose the item to be revalued?

Let me amend this.

Can you explain why it cannot be the target of Marvels/Voices before it is resolved, and thus is not yet in the MP pile?
Stone-age did not end because man ran out of rocks.

Because until resolved Neither so Ancient Nor so Potent is not in play.
Nothing may target/affect a card merely declared.
Exceptions are:
- cards/effects that explicitly (by card's text) target an action/a card declared in the same chain of effects (e.g. Twilight, Many Sorrows Befall, Prowess of Age),
- cards/effects that target a dice-rolling actions (e.g. corruption checks); the cards/effects may only be declared in response in the same chain of effect in which the dice-rolling action has been declared.
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.

Sure looks like a circle to me.

And it's a hazard. Hazards give kill MPs. Resources give item MPs etc. This is not a resource.
