Debt to the Kami

Black's edict tradition, from Diabolic Edict onward, has almost always sent the sacrificed creature to the graveyard, where reanimation and death triggers turn a concession into fuel. Swap that graveyard destination for exile and the whole calculus shifts: the opponent still chooses what dies, but now they cannot claw it back, and whatever they hand over is gone for good. That single lever is what quietly upgrades a familiar template. The second mode is the stranger addition: an instant-speed way for a mono-black card to strip an enchantment, a permanent type black normally has no clean answer to on its own. Bundling creature-removal and enchantment-removal into one modal instant gives it a reach most edicts lack, and the instant timing lets it answer a token about to be sacrificed, a hexproof threat that dodges targeted removal, or an enchantment mid-plan. Because it asks the opponent to make the choice, it is at its weakest against a wide board and at its sharpest against a deck committed to a single key permanent. The exile clause is the payoff that keeps it honest against recursion: it removes less reliably than a spell that names its target, but what it does take, it takes permanently.
