banished.
You may still freely
look at your collection and cemetery, and add cards to them. The

which would 'access' cards is put on the
, allowing the entire effect access. The Bureau does not increase casting costs; it is a separate
. It will not be reduced by effects that reduce casting cost (e.g.
), since it's not a casting cost and often
are effects that access without casting anything (e.g.
,
, etc.) For example,
must pay

must pay
to use his ability, even if on
, as this is not an increase to the cost of the ability but a separate cost which must be paid in advance. You may choose not to pay the
and resolve the rest of the effect but be unable to access cards from a cemetery or collection. For example,
may
the other zones and simply not remove any spells from cemetery. Adept Illusionist may search your

for another
