A Hero Rises ending

By Talismangeek, in Talisman Rules Questions

Hello, I have a quick question about the Hero Rises ending. One of the conditions on the card states:

"If a character would replenish fate , and is already at or above his maximum fate , he gains 1 fate instead."

It is clear that if a character is instructed to "replenish 1 fate", and is at or above his fate value, he would gain a fate.

What is not clear to me, is what happens when a character is instructed to "replenish fate up to your fate value", if you are at or above your fate value?

Would he gain 1 fate, gain fate up to his fate value, or gain no fate at all?

All opinions appreciated. Thanks!

edit: upon further consideration, I see there are only 2 options, either gain a fate or gain no fate. I am inclined to think he would gain 1 fate.

He would gain one fate, as it is an act of replenishing.
