Can Meera go back to Shadows during being Moribund by Valar or Threat from the North?
To activate her Response that does not change the Moribund state as I see. She will still leave play. The only question is: where to?
Also if she would be sent back to hand (by any means), is it also possible to go to Shadows instead?
I assume if Meera can go to Shadows in the above situations, then the first player will decide where to go from Moribund state (if there are more than one possibility).
The rules say:
Simultaneous but Conflicting Entry
into the Moribund State
If a character is killed, discarded, and/or
returned to a player's hand or deck at exactly
the same time, the first player decides which
of the destinations applies for the card's
Moribund state. (See "What is Moribund?" in
section III (page 15) for more information on
"Moribund.")
Leaving Play
A card "leaves play" when it moves from an
in play state to an out of play state. Out of
play states are the dead pile, the discard pile, a
player’s hand, and a player’s deck.
What is "Moribund"?
After a card is forced to leave play (by being
killed, discarded, returned to its owner's hand
or deck, or moved to its owner's shadows
area) that card is considered Moribund for the
duration of the action window.
Rules Exception
Although considered in play, a Moribund card
cannot be removed from play (or targeted to
be removed from play) again by any effect or
any attempt to pay a cost for the remainder of
the action window. However, the "state" of a
Moribund card can be changed by an effect
that does not actually attempt to remove it from play a second time.
