🖋️ Curator's Notes

Vigilance

When this creature enters, recruit. (Draw a card, then discard a card. If you discarded a nonland card, create a 1/1 white Human Soldier creature token.)

"Lake-town was much diminished from its old grandeur, but still the Long Lake provided for all their needs."

Once a spell or ability that causes you to recruit begins to resolve, no player may take any other actions until it's done. Any responses made to the spell or ability must be made before you draw, discard, and potentially create a token.
