2021-12-22 06:00:38: Sorrow created the card Vent Elemental

Did you know there was an actual whirlpool mechanic in magic? It was just a vertical cycle in Apocalypse, but I'll always remember it.

Does this mean the targeted creature will also be sacrificed? Or just die?

If a sacrifice hits the graveyard, is that not dying? "Leaves the same way" was you suggestion on Blood-Cloud Oracle over "goes to the corresponding zone". It should not be a sacrifice, but assuming nothing is moving cards to exile, it's still dying.
Now dealing with replacement triggers for the creature with Whirlpool isn't something I thought about. Since the payment occurs, the trigger should check where the creature is going, but I don't know what happens when Wheel of Sun and Moon is enchanting you.
