At the end of this card's text, it reads "...during the NEXT refresh phase." It doesn't say "...during its controller's next refresh phase." Should I interpret this literally? It sounds like if I exhaust my opponent's character during his turn, it won't be able to ready during MY refresh phase but it will be able to ready on my opponent's refresh phase. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
I'd read it literally.
It means that it hasn't been a waste if you activate the exhaustion on an enemy character by winning the investigation struggle on your own turn.
It certainly does less if triggered on an opponent's turn, but in practice, it's also much rarer to trigger then. You pretty much only play this when you are confident you will be committing to stories and winning at least one [Investigation] on your own turn, since you can never rely on your opponent giving you a chance to commit.
