Can I get multiple effects from Alhammarrett, High Arbiter when using Brago, King Eternal's ability?

# Can I get multiple effects from Alhammarrett, High Arbiter when using Brago, King Eternal's ability?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2021-03-03)

I'm playing a commander deck with [Brago, King Eternal](https://gatherer.wizards.com/pages/card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=382221) as commander. I also have this card called [Alhammarret, High Arbiter](https://gatherer.wizards.com/pages/card/details.aspx?multiverseid=398436) I'm considering adding to the deck.

If I cast the arbiter, chose a spell (let's say [Shock](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=485482)) and then blink it via Brago's ability, I know I can choose another spell (maybe [Goblin Locksmith](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bGoblin%20Locksmith%5d)), but can I have both Shock and Goblin Locksmith 'blocked' at the same time? Does the effect on shock disappear when the arbiter blinks, limiting to one spell 'blocked' at once?

The effect disappears as soon as you blink the Arbiter.

> 400.7. An object that moves from one zone to another becomes a new object with no memory of, or relation to, its previous existence.

The [rules](https://media.wizards.com/2021/downloads/MagicCompRules%2020210224.txt) list a few exceptions, but the situation you describe isn't one of them. The blinked Arbiter does not know anything about the Shock you chose when it was cast.
