Drawing from the errata on Wraith, “However, If the incoming damage to Wraith is reduced to the point where she actually takes no damage, then the damage done to the attacking target never happens.”
As I understand it, if damage is reduced to 0, the damage doesn’t ~actually~ happen. And if damage doesn’t actually happen, then you do not get riders from the power that deals damage?
I found something in another thread that seems to support this idea, I think.
Does this mean that Ra doesn’t deal damage at all (no damage, no response), and does not draw a card? Or does it mean that Ra deals 0 damage, and draws 1 card?

I’m thinking that the power has 2 effects:
#1: Ra deals 1 target 1 fire damage. #2 You may also draw a card.
Nowhere on the card does it have to say #1 has to happen to get #2 Some cards have effects which are based upon the target actually taking damage, but this one doesn’t.

Gnipp is correct. The card would be worded differently if the draw effect were reliant on damage being dealt.
