An instant or sorcery spell is not a creature spell, even if that spell creates Dragon creature tokens. — If the mana from Carnelian Orb of Dragonkind is spent to pay any part of the Dragon creature spell's cost, including an alternative or additional cost, the Dragon will gain haste until end of turn. — If the mana is spent on a non-Dragon spell that becomes a Dragon later in the turn, that creature won't have haste. — The mana created by Carnelian Orb of Dragonkind can be spent on anything, not just Dragon creature spells.

Flavor text

Sages whisper that Lathliss still keeps the heart of the old dragon queen sealed within a jewel, its smoldering warmth an eternal reminder that no monarch is untouchable.
