Play Chapel, Trash Squire, gain Relic.

Edit: next page ninja, but I think maybe Chapel makes more sense... maybe not... depends on if "church" or "clergy" was the important word.

New Puzzle: With a 5-card hand of only terminal actions with no {cards that can play other cards, no Durations, and no Reserves aside from Distant Lands} in the Supply or Black Market, and no Events in a solo game, how can I put 4 Distant Lands onto my Reserve mat in one turn? There are no tokens on any Supply Card.

Teacher put a +action token on Distant Lands a long time ago, this allows me to play 5 Distant Lands. Teacher is not in the supply, and you can still call Distant Lands a terminal action, so this follows the rules.

That works, but now I will edit my post to disallow tokens.

I can't think of a way this can be possible then... but I'd love to be shown wrong.

What are you counting as terminal?  Does Tribute count?

EDIT: What about Band of Misfits?

Terminal as in none of the card's effects could add any number of actions.

Champion is a Duration, but it's not in the Supply.

A boy wanders into a church and is killed; the clergy then turn his body into a holy artifact.

What happened?

Use Chapel (or Bishop) to trash Squire, gaining Relic.

Disciple is a non-supply card, so I'd Disciple a Disciple, playing a Smithy twice, then playing a Village (that I just drew) twice, and use that to play four Distant Lands.

As a follow-up, a slightly trickier one. I start my turn with a 5-card hand of only terminal actions. I have not played any Duration cards this game, and there are no cards on my Tavern mat. Further, there are no cards in my deck that play more cards as part of their resolution, and I haven't put my +1 Action token on any pile. How can I put 4 Distant Lands onto my Tavern mat this turn?

Last turn, you Princed 4 Distant Lands with the help of Bridge. This turn, you drew a hand of 5 more Distant Lands, and played 4 Distant Lands at the start of your turn, setting them aside.
Even though they play other cards as part of their resolution, the Princes are no longer in your deck.

Alternatively, just Prince a Crossroads. But I like this better cause it wastes 4 Princes.

Princed Crossroads, 4 Distant Lands in hand.

Alternative without Prince:

Hand: Black Market x2, Distant Lands x2, Hunting Grounds x1. +1 card token on BM. Play BM, draw Coin of the Realm (CotR), play CotR, put BM cards back (BM finished resolving), call CotR. Play Hunting Grounds, drawing CotR x2, Distant Lands x2. Play second BM, play CotR x2, put cards back, call CotR x2, play 4 Distant Lands.

Wow, I guess I left way too many loopholes in my post.
My solution was 4xDisciple and 1xCouncil Room. Play Disciple-Disciple-Disciple-Disciple-CR, drawing 4 Distant Lands, 1 Disciple, and 3 Scouts. Play the last Disciple, and you have 4 TR effects to play the Distant Lands.

You did say no cards that can play other cards. That would disallow both Disciple and Prince.

pacovf has a neopets account.  It has 999 hours logged.  All his neopets are named "Jessica".  I guess that must be his ex.

Right... what exactly counts, to you, as a card that plays other cards?

A card that tells you to play (or that you may play) an Action card. Is there any other way to understand that?

I would ask then what your definition of a terminal action is. As far as I'm concerned, Disciple is not terminal

According to the wiki, a terminal action is an Action card that does not give +Action when played.

I thought it was an altar, but that would make two holy artifacts.
Better not to investigate too closely about what constitutes those relics. Seriously.
