Question about the wording of the Brutal Slam power

[Pseudonym]

The Brutal Slam power (Primal Power, page 13) says that you hit the target and push it two squares knocking it prone. Then one enemy adjacent to the target takes damage.

My question is: would that be an enemy adjacent to when the target was first hit or an enemy adjacent to where the target landed?

If the "one creature adjacent to the target" line comes after the "push the target 2 squares" line, then it is adjacent to where the target landed.

Generally, the order in which things are written indicates what happens when. If it had said "One creature adjacent to the target... ...Push the target 2 squares" then it'd be in that order. But it's not, based on your post (I haven't seen the power in question, so I'm only going off information given).
