River Song's Diary
Artifact — Book
Imprint — Whenever a player casts an instant or sorcery spell from their hand, exile it instead of putting it into a graveyard as it resolves.
At the beginning of your upkeep, if there are four or more cards exiled with this artifact, choose one of them at random. You may cast it without paying its mana cost.

A spell you can cast almost whenever you have priority.
Cast only on your turn, main phase, empty stack (unless an effect says otherwise).
A zone outside the game: not the graveyard; many « from graveyard » effects won’t see it.
A card's mana cost is printed in its top-right corner: the mana you must gather to cast it. Often a mix of a specific color and “generic” mana (payable with anything), like below.
