Rain Becomes Dust vs Self Control

If I have Rain Becomes Dust active, and my opponent has Self Control placed on a hero in his/her territory, what happens if my opponent draws a card as part of a special ability used by that opponent?

Rain Becomes Dust:  All cards that an opponent draws because of a special ability used by that opponent are revealed instead. Place all revealed Lost Souls in opponent’s territory. Discard the rest.

Self Control (territory class): Place on your clay or teal Hero. Protect your hand and deck from opponents' cards.

Basically, I am asking if there is some intermediate state to a draw when a card is neither in the deck nor in the hand.

There is no in between state. RBD will have no effect due to the protection.

Thanks.  In the middle of trying to work out Redemption timing structures in a more formal manner.

On a related note: I assume that a card like Seven Years of Famine* would also have no effect** on a player protected by Self Control.

*If used by a Genesis character, place in your territory for 7 turns: Negate draw and ignore abilities. During each player’s upkeep, if their hand is 7 or more, they must discard 1.

**The "negate draw" portion of the SA.

Self control protects your hand and deck.
7YoF is a negate that targets abilities so it would still negate draw abilities of a player with SC.

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