Rules Q&A

• Q: Hello. I did some research, but couldn't find relevant rules (or precedence)... I hope that someone provides me with one
  Poor Akodo Nagataka has a timebomb under his scalp, blowing him up just before battle resolution:
  Akodo Nagataka : (trait) Before a battle's resolution, if Nagataka is at the current battlefield: Destroy him.
  What if he is riding, er, using, Talisman of Toshigoku? Talisman is of course charged by peroforming some dectruction.
  Talisman of Toshigoku : Reaction: After the resolution of a Battle action that this Personality performed and that destroyed an enemy card, bow this card: Negate the next destruction of this Personality this turn.
  Battle resolution is looming, Nagataka feels sick, then Talisman saves him (fanfares), and... ? Another destruction or maybe he lives on ?
  Bests!
  A: Talisman of Toshigoku could negate the destruction from the trait. Zen Faulkes, "Akodo Nagataka with Talisman of Toshigoku", 13 Jul 2010
