LSJ Khazar's Diary and Breath of Thanatos

[librarian]

Hello -

Probably pretty self-explanatory:

You can't use Breath of Thanatos to get the +2 stealth when doing the
Khazar action to get a wraith, because it's not a "employ/recruit wraith
action" but a different type of action, correct?

Relevant text (copied from WW site):

Khazar's Diary (Endless Night) [LotN:C]
Cardtype: Action
Clan: Giovanni
+1 stealth action.
Put the Diary in play, or add a counter to one in play. When a unique
minion in play is burned, add another counter. While this card has seven
or more counters, Giovanni get [NEC] and may take a +1 stealth action to
put a minion from any ash heap into play to represent a wraith ally with
2 life, 0 strength, 1 bleed and +1 stealth.
Artist: John Bridges

Breath of Thanatos [KMW:C]
Cardtype: Action Modifier / Combat
Cost: 1 blood
Discipline: Necromancy
[nec] +2 stealth. Only usable on an action to employ or to recruit a wraith.

I assume Shroud Master wouldn't give a benefit either at NEC?

It is not a recruit action, correct.

Correct.
