Double Instead: Nicanor/RBD

I play The Generous Widow while my opponent has both Nicanor in play and Rain Becomes Dust active.  Which instead happens first, Nicanor or Rain Becomes Dust?

I believe whichever was active first.

Have you checked the REG?
Have you looked it up in ORCID?

We had these two cards duking it out the other day in my playgroup. I was controlling Nicanor in a multi-player game. I made a successful rescue against a player with RBD active, and he surrendered the Rejoice LS to me. Normally, under RBD, I wouldn't have my draw "insteaded" because I do not control the ability causing me to draw. My Nicanor insteads the Rejoice LS's, so instead of all players draw 1, all players draw 1  ;) 

...HOWEVER I then controlled the draw ability, and got hit with RBD...  :'(

I believe whichever was active first.

I would agree based on the current rules, in general.  Both have the same activation times and both can remain active.  However, note that characters 'reactivate' when they enter battle (see Simon the Zealot for similar rulings), and a curse would be deactivated if another artifact were activated instead, and would activate again later if chosen again.  If you have both out and Nicanor was out first, if he enters battle then RBD is now 'longest activated,' for example.
