    Whenever you cycle a card, you may pay 1 generic mana . When you do, exile target artifact or creature you control, then return it to the battlefield under its owner's control.

    Sanctuaries harnessed the glowstones' natural reaction to monsters to create a warning system.

    If a token is exiled this way, it will cease to exist and won’t return to the battlefield.

    Triggered abilities from cycling a card and the cycling ability itself aren’t spells. Effects that interact with spells (such as that of Cancel) won’t affect them.

    You can cycle a card even if it has a triggered ability from cycling that won’t have a legal target. This is because the cycling ability and the triggered ability are separate. This also means that if either ability is countered (with Disallow, for example), the other ability will still resolve.
