During your turn, Kefka has indestructible. At the beginning of your end step, exile a card at random from each opponent's graveyard.

If you cast a spell "without paying its mana cost," you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay additional costs, such as kicker costs. If the card has any mandatory additional costs, those must be paid to cast the spell.

You choose which spells to cast (if any) as Kefka's last ability resolves. You can't wait to cast them later in the turn. Timing restrictions based on their types are ignored.
