Environment. May only be played if Gates of Morning is not in play. The hazard limit is increased by two for each moving company with a size of less than four that also contains a Wizard or a non-ranger character with a mind of 6 or more. Cannot be duplicated. Discard when any play deck is exhausted.
If I play this on a moving company, will the hazard limit be adjusted while the MH-phase is already ongoing or does the card have to be in play at the beginning of the MH-phase when the hazard limit is determined? (no, I believe)

I believe that the effects of the cards work like the returning effect of Snowstorm or an attack from Dragon Ahunt.
If the condition described on the card are met, "hazard limit is increased by two" is declared as first action in the next chain of effects.
The result is persistent, i.e. it does not disappear when Eyes of the Shadow leaves the play, or when the conditions are no longer met.
And may be declared (and resolved) multiple times in the same turn if the conditions reappear (e.g. if mind of non-ranger is lowered below 6, then increased to 6 or more).
We will not speak of such things even in the morning of the Shire.

There is the one typo and one inaccurate statement in my previous post.
So I have decided to rewrite the whole post instead of editing it. Changes are underlined.
