Short answer:
I'm trying to say that Fireworks is played out through the
![Free Hold [-me_fh-]](./images/smilies/me_fh.png)
, or
![Border Hold [-me_bh-]](./images/smilies/me_bh.png)
and through the sage.
Long answer:
Some objects may be affected, or required by action of a card but they are not targets of the card.
For example all hazard environment cards in play are discarded when Gates of Morning resolves, but GoM does not specify them and they are not required to play GoM*.
Aliance of Free Peoples requires at least one of each hero Dwarf, hero Elf, hero Man faction, but does not specify them. So if after declaration of the card, the hero Hillmen will be discarded, but hero Southrons is in play, the card will resolve. An affected, required factions are not specified and are not targets.
The Will of Sauron requires a Doors of Night in play, but it does not specify a copy of Doors of Night, so if Doors of Night will be discarded by Twilight in response to The Will of Sauron, but second copy will be played The Will of Sauron can resolve. Doors of Night in play is required by The Will of Sauron, but is not the target of The Will of Sauron.
![Free Hold [-me_fh-]](./images/smilies/me_fh.png)
, or
![Border Hold [-me_bh-]](./images/smilies/me_bh.png)
mentioned in Fireworks text is the
![Free Hold [-me_fh-]](./images/smilies/me_fh.png)
, or
![Border Hold [-me_bh-]](./images/smilies/me_bh.png)
where the sage's company stays. So it is unambiguously specified - it may not by any other
![Free Hold [-me_fh-]](./images/smilies/me_fh.png)
, or
![Border Hold [-me_bh-]](./images/smilies/me_bh.png)
, e.g. choosen after declaration of card. And it is required to play Fireworks - it cannot be played on sage in company at
![Shadow Hold [-me_sh-]](./images/smilies/me_sh.png)
for example.
*) If object (entity) is target it must be in play or declared when action is being declared.
Annotation 8: An action that requires a target is considered to have the active
condition that the target be in play when the action is declared and when it is resolved.
An action may not be declared if its target is not in play. However, dice-rolling actions
may always be targeted by other actions declared later in the same chain of effects.
