Must discard one card additional to force damage with Vicious Trident +1

Got the Vicious Trident + 1 with Kyra, playing "The Fort in Peril" on heroic. The Trident does not work as the text implies, or I am missing something.

The card says "When you play this weapon, you are dealt 1 Force damage that may not be reduced", and after the combat check Kyra is dealt one force damage, that is ok. But before the combat check, immediately after playing the trident (Reveal or Discard, does not matter), Kyra has to discard a card. Why do I have to discard a card, effectively dealt two damage, one before and one after the combat check?

 

 

This post was longer, but eaten by the board, apparently I posted my second post 6 seconds to soon. Why does the green bar above the new post mention the "maximum 4 more new posts", but not "wait until hh:mm or your post will go to the drains"?

Because that's what is says on the card?

So, I do miss something? The card says "Dealt one force damage", and Kyra gets one force damage, so far, so good.

 

But where does it say you have to discard one card, in addition to the force damage?

 

 

Just to be clear:

1. Reveal Trident
2. Forced to discard one card from hand
3. Combat check
4. Discard a second card due to Force damage from Trident

I do understand 4., that is the Force damage mentioned on the card. But why do I have to discard another card at 2.?

Unless your in-game Trident is somehow different from the one in the Gallery - it says "For your combat check, reveal this card and DISCARD ANOTHER CARD".

Yes, you are right, it clearly states "discard another card". Just noticed it myself, I do not know why I did not see it the first 20 times I read the text... my fault.
