Fun! It is a pity that it has so many words, indeed.
It's possible you could remove the "CMC 2 or less" rider without taking the mana cost much higher. It's a very restricted Clone, so it might be comparable to Phantasmal Image.
I created Phase Reflection, Eternity Servant, and Future Slip.

This has a lot of words...
Oops I had this at common.

Not sure about the wording here, but I'm in too much of a hurry to fix it.

Oooh. This looks fun.
Hmm... It's different. Piping out enchantments or noncreature artifacts enables a different set of silly tricks.
Hard to see this being something you're happy to spend a card on. Could probably be a cantrip for 1 mana; compare Reroute, which doesn't have the "same controller" restriction.
Bwahaha. Cool mechanic.
I like the "house of shadows" flavour.
Decided to focus on Purple being about secrets, shadows and confusion. I know this has appeared before in Blue/Black (and maybe a touch of Red chaos magic) but when you're trying to slice up a new piece of the color pie, you're almost always going to cut into some color's territory, I suppose. Tartoolian Lasher, Blind Cover, Dilemma Gate.
For Challenge # 018. I know, I know. It's not as good as Quicksilver Amulet. Feel free to change the numbers in your mind, to make yourself feel better about this card.
For Challenge # 018. Misdirection and rerouting. Blue and Red do this sometimes, but the end result is often turning the effect back on it's caster. The House of Shadows, however doesn't waste mana trying to bend powerful spells back at the spell's controller. When you fire into the shadows, you'll probably hit something... just not the thing you were aiming at.
For Challenge # 018. The reminder text for Morph Swap reads "
: Reveal ~ and return it to your hand, then put a card with morph from your hand face down on the battlefield. If ~ was blocking or blocked by a creature, the creature it swapped with is now blocking or blocked by that creature."
Okay, I admit, it isn't that practical to expect that much reminder text to appear on any card. I'm just going to assume that, if purple exists, then players already know how to morph and Morph Swap in the same way that players know how to cast creatures and block with them. If that's the case, I suppose we can also go nuts, and assume that if a card was targeting the morph swapping creature, it is now targeting the new morph creature. Sure. Why not.
Really, this is an enchantment with a number of drawbacks, so it feels fine by me. It would require testing to get right, but I can't see why a card like, say, Dragon Roost would be a more broken mechanic than a Sorcery doing roughly the same thing.
Personally, I think the big problem with shadow is the "and can't block" part. Having two versions of flying per set makes sense to me. Hopefully, it would also kill landwalk once and for all. I really hate that mechanic... and I'm doubly annoyed that the color who has the most problems with evasion produces the most landwalkers...
