Procession a Fortress(Fortress is the card being played) and then Haven/Gear it

The first Duplicate you gain can't be Duplicated.

Between then and my next turn, I do not shuffle, and I do not top-deck anything, and yet that card is in my next hand. What is the card, and how is it in my hand?
OK then, I contend that wero's solution doesn't work either. So here's a counter-puzzle:How can you Duplicate the first Duplicate you gain?

I would say you remodel it to 'duplicate' your duplicate, but it can't be a trick like that, can it?

Aha. You possess your opponent, who already has a Duplicate, and you simply buy your first Duplicate.
You can gain cards from the trash. So you can trash the Duplicate via watchtower, get a second Duplicate, and gain the first Duplicate back via Graverobber, which should work.

But you can gain a specific copy more than once. Gaining it from the trash is one way. Another way is to return it to the pile via Ambassador.

Play it with Storyteller, draw it back next turn with a princed Counting House.
But Bonfire to trash a Fortress that is in play, and then buy Save to put it in your next turn's hand.
