Ahhh, but your confusing the action "SET" with the orientation "SET." The act of setting is called a "set" but a face-down defence postion monster is considered "set." One is an action, the other is a state of being. And no where does it say that flipping a monster face-down isn't a set.

Here is a shortcut ruling:

"Swords of Concealing Light"
When this card resolves, put all monsters on your opponent's side of the field in defense position. In addition, flip all monsters in your opponent's side face-down if it is allowed. (Tokens are not alowed and when "Light of Intervention" is active, then it is not allowed).

"Light of Intervention"
Anything that is supposed to be placed face-down is placed face-up.
EDIT: Except for "Book of Moon" and "Ready for Intercepting" where you can't activate them while "Light of Intervention" is active.

Wow, this is more of a response than I expected.

A LOT more.

But anyway, I've had a thought;

If we assume for a moment Light of Intervention stops monster cards from being in face down position at all. Book of Moon couldn't be activated, as it would be performing hara kiri and otherwise doing nothing, and the rules say you can't do that. However, Swords does more than that, it turns them to defense, flips them face down, AND prevents them from changing position.

This implies that they will not change position to face down defense, but they wouldn't be able to change positon manually afterwards due to the continous effect of Swords. That's my thoughts, whihc are far from watertight.

Alright guys, you've gone and done it... POLL TIME!!!!!

Does Light of Intervention prevent Swords of Concealing Light's activation, and does LoI prevent monsters from being flipped face-down by card effects??? (as of March 13 3:53 PM)

Swords of Concealing Light is a Continuous Spell card.

If a continuous spell card does not target, and does not say otherwise, it does not have any activation conditions.

Toon World has no effect at all, if we were to apply the rule of "a card must have to be able to do something to be played" to continuous spell cards, Toon World could never be activated.

So swords of Conecealing Light can be activated at any time that any other continuous spell card could be activated.

Under no circumstances could Light of Intervention prevent the activation of the Card itself,

However a card and its effect are sometimes 2 different things:
perhaps Light of Intervention will cause the First effect not to be activated when Swords is played.
