Council of Elrond

Hi,

When using marvels told - can any sage in play, whether or not the hazard has been played on his company/he's at a different site etc., play MT?

Also, look more closely later - must the sage be at the site you are untapping, or can they be at a different site? Card is not specific on the point, but would appear to allow any sage to do it.

Thanks

Regarding Marvels Told, yes you may play it freely. But to untap a site with Look More Closely Later the sage must be present.

CRF, Errata (Cards), Marvels Told wrote:May be played during the site phase by a character in another company, as if he were
in the company resolving their site phase.

So Marvels Told may be played during site phase even if actual sage's company may not (yet) do anything in site phase.
From the other hand a playing MT is restricted by limitation of company resolving their site phase, so cannot be used to remove automatic-attack (until faced), even if actual sage's company is not limited in such way.
