Corruption. A revealed Wizard receives 2 corruption points and makes a corruption check at the end of any movement/hazard phase in a turn during which his company moved to a Haven [H]. Cannot be duplicated on a given Wizard. During his organization phase, a Wizard with this card may tap to attempt to remove it. Make a roll (or draw a #): if this result is greater than 6, discard this card.
This is probably a stupid question, but does this card give corruption points exclusively "at the end of any movement/hazard phase in a turn during which his company moved to a Haven"?
I'm asking because the text on other corruption cards usually follows the following scheme: "A [somebody] receives 2 corruption points. Target character makes a corruption check [sometime]" but on Lure of Creation it's: "A [somebody] receives 2 corruption points and makes a corruption check [sometime]". Thus, is it "A and (B when C)" or "(A and B) when C"?

Convention is that if CP, or MP are received only in some circumstances their values are given in parenthesis.
If not counting this problematic card and similarly worded Longing for The West, I do not know any exception from this convention.

Very often a value somewhere else on a card is repeated in the card's descriptive text for emphasis. A and (B when C) is the correct interpretation.
