Now we're talking. This basically forces your opponent to commit at least 2 characters to a story if you leave it up for defense. It can also let you shove through some stories uncontested if you're playing offensively. Solid, solid effect. Hastur naturally wants to play Seventy Steps a lot of the time as well, which just so happens to be a Dreamlands card too, basically guaranteeing you to have more than your opponent. I don't really see other Dreamlands cards around, but that might be because of availability.
the only time it maybe off is only against another hastur deck.
Great card, as long as your opponent doesn't run a lot of dreamlands support cards. Extra fun to combo it with polar mirage.
Just realized this card goes great with The Door That Will Not Close. TDTWNC says characters can't "uncommit." Cavern of Flame doesn't uncommit characters from stories, it removes them from stories. Quite a nice little loophole.
