Desolate Land
Good/Evil Dominant
"Negate and discard a Site. If played during a battle, it becomes a battle challenge."
~Jeremiah 4:27
Note: None.
Pomegranates
Artifact
-Temple Artifact-
"Set aside and capture abilities cannot be negated. You may discard this card and your priest or Babylonian to discard a Temple or Temple Artifact."
~Jeremiah 52:23
Note: The first ability was just to give it something useful to do. The second is related to the story in Jeremiah so read the verse if you want to know why I have it do that.
Unheard Cries
-/- Brown EE, TC
-Limit one per territory-
"Place on a Hero: Restrict holder from playing Enhancements while Hero is in battle. Discard this card if Hero wins a battle."
~Job 19:7
Note: Not sure if this is OP or not, or if it works like I want. The limit is so in T2 you can't end up with multiple heroes crippled with these, but idk if it works properly.

Desolate Land
Good/Evil Dominant
"Discard all Sites regardless of protection. If played during a battle, it becomes a battle challenge."
~Jeremiah 4:27
As a lover of sitelock, I STRONGLY despise this idea. Stop hurting my precious even more than it has been!

Would it be better if it discarded ONE site? I had thought about that as well.

Should just Negate and Discard one. The second sentence is needed to keep it from being NU.
Very, very powerful. Perhaps OP, since it makes Magnificat and He Is Risen CBN.

Like I said above, the first part was just to make it useful. Any suggestions for balancing it?

Happen to know what pomegranates symbolize? May help with the SA.

From the context of the verse, they are decoration inside the temple. I don't know what their specific purpose in being used in such a way was, so I figured I'd pull a Windows of Narrow Light and just give the card a random ability. The discard portion is to fit with the story that happened at the time in Jeremiah (the Babylonians were sacking the temple and taking or destroying most of the stuff).
