Curse Of The Ransom Note

The next question that the seekers ask must be composed of words and letters cut out of any printed material. The question must be coherent and include at least 5 words.

Casting Cost: Spell out “ransom note” as a ransom note (without using this card).

You cannot begin fulfilling the casting cost of this curse if you would be otherwise unable to play a curse; once the cost is fulfilled, this curse must be cast immediately. The printed material cannot be printed by the seekers; the letters should be gathered from magazines, newspapers, or any other material that the seekers encounter in the wild. “Coherence” in this context does not necessarily mean complete sentences, but the hider should be able to discern the meaning of the question without further clarification. You may use easy-to-understand abbreviations for certain words (such as a “2” instead of “to.”) If the question requires additional context outside of the basic sentence itself, this context does NOT need to be provided in the form of a ransom note. For example, if you are asking a thermometer question, you can simply ask something along the lines of, “Went 10 km. Hotter/colder?” Any information about where you started and ended the thermometer can be provided as normal, in the form of a location pin or text.
