a few questions about Prince

Which happen first at the start of the turn? Also quick question, Prince remains set aside with the card, right? Does it ever return into your deck, like when you fail to set the affected card aside again?

If you have lots of Princed cards (or duration cards, from Dominion:Seaside), you can choose the order, and it can be different every turn.

Yes, the prince stays out, it never returns to your deck, even if it stops doing anything. Princes (and princed cards) do return to your deck at the end of the game, so they count towards Gardens/Fairgrounds/Vineyards etc.

The same also goes for a set-aside Horse Trader.

Yes, the prince stays out, it never returns to your deck, even if it stops doing anything. Princes (and princed cards) do return to your deck at the end of the game, so they count towards Gardens/Fairgrounds/Vineyards etc.

The reason this is the case is that the N Princes all tell you to play a card at the start of your turn, and none of them tell you the order. Thus, the general rule of "when you have to do N things at the same time, you may choose the order to do them in" applies. From this, you can extrapolate that Durations are the same: if you have two Caravans in play, and a Princed Secret Chamber, you could choose to resolve one Caravan, then Secret Chamber all your cards away, then the second Caravan. Likewise with set-aside Horse Traders, as mentioned earlier in this thread.
