When I play Xaro Xoan Daxos from my hand, can I both lower the cost by Illyrio's Man and return him to my hand as an effect of Xaro Xoan Daxos ? Which thing is first?
Xaro Xoan Daxos/Illyrio's Man
Yes you can. You would first need to kneel Illyrio's Man to reduce the cost of the next Targ character you play. Then that next character can be Xaro Xoan Daxos. You can choose Illyrio's Man to return to your hand. Then if you still have gold, you can play Illyrio's Man and kneel him again to reduce the cost of the next Targ character you play.
on a largely unrelated note- does anyone have any idea how to pronounce 'Xaro Xoan Daxos' ?

Well, according to Roy Dotrice (narrator on the series for the first three audio books) it's Zaro Zone DacksOhs (just sound that out phonetically - I know it looks odd).
