<p><b>New page</b></p><div>I make 12 pieces of paper, with fancy calligraphy, with the names and<br />
titles of the 12 rulers of the Kingdoms. Then I think about it for a<br />
while, and set the Viridian Queen aside, but add the name of the First<br />
Servant's wife to his slip.<br />
<br />
I try to divide the remaining 11 slips up into Yin, Yang, and Chi to<br />
consider where their loyalties lie. (based on how the commanders came<br />
down, he's vaguely think it's Yang=personal ambition, Yin=loyalty to<br />
kingdom, Chi=loyalty to Empire, but he doesn't force that if another<br />
division seems more right).<br />
<br />
Yang+Yang with I Ching Mastery:<br />

We'll go with more or less the Yang/Yin/Chi you describe.<br />
<br />
* Lord Yu is Chi-ish for Yang reasons.<br />
<br />
* The Steward is a weird combination of Yang for Yin reasons and Yin for Yang reasons.<br />
<br />
* The Viridian Queen is Yang for Yin reasons.<br />
<br />
* The First Servant and his wife are Yin for Chi reasons.<br />
<br />
* The King of the Taiga is Fox for Yin reasons.<br />
<br />
* High Warlord Ze is Yang for Yang reasons, but that isn't far from Yin.<br />
<br />
* Lord Sonwu is Yin for Yang reasons.<br />
<br />
* The Lord of Benevolent Oversight is Yang because so is everyone else.<br />
<br />
* Highest Wisdom of the Illuminated Precincts is a little Yang-ish because all the Yin in the world is lives in his country.<br />
<br />
* The Firelord is Yin for Yin reasons, but that ends up being pretty Yang.<br />
<br />
* Ti Lao is Yin with aspirations of Chi.<br />
<br />
* The Mayor of the Hidden City is Chi for Yang reasons.<br />
<br />
You get seven clarifications or small questions about each of the Yang<br />
people, each of the Yin people, and each of the Chi people. You can<br />
use any of those on the King of the Taiga.<br />
<br />
---<br />
<br />
Er, you left [The Viridian Queen] out, and the GMs forgot. (She did not sneakily insert<br />
herself in).<br />
<br />
You can assume that the above is true within the limits of your scrying,<br />
but don't use the Yang questions on her. If there would have been<br />
thwackback had you left her in on purpose, it doesn't happen.<br />

<br />
> 1) Is the Steward's weird mix of Yang and Yin basically what Yanyu saw<br />
> in her horoscope of "I'm doing my best for my country, and would step<br />
> down for the rightful King if he was better, but will be<br />
> nigh-impossible to convince that anyone is better", or is there<br />
> something more to it?<br />
<br />
Basically that.<br />
<br />
> 2) Does the parallel construction between the High Warlord's reading<br />
> and the Firelord's reading signify some underlying parallel in their<br />
> personalities or situation?<br />
<br />
Somewhat, yes. For both of them, self-interest and country-interest<br />
share a path, but they walk from opposite directions.<br />
<br />
> 3) Is "because so is everyone else" in the Lord of Benevolent<br />
> Oversight's reading a statement of his personality and interpretation<br />
> of the world, or a statement of how the Arcade works?<br />
<br />
It's written as the former, but it's not like the latter isn't true<br />
too.<br />
<br />
> 4) Would the Lord of Benevolent Oversight become more Yin or Chi if<br />
> the surrounding Yang environment was reduced?<br />
<br />
It depends on what caused the surrounding Yang environment to reduce,<br />
but probably more Yin.<br />
<br />
> 5) Does "Yang for Yang reasons isn't far from Yin" for the High<br />
> Warlord mean that his country is very Yang so being Yang is kind of<br />
> loyal-to-country, or that he regards benefits to the country as<br />
> benefits to him because he's King, or something else?<br />
<br />
Neither of these is quite right. Anything that he does that benefits<br />
the country is done because of the personal power that he invokes to<br />
make it so.<br />
<br />
> 6) Is the Highest Wisdom's Yang-ish-ness sufficient that he would be<br />
> interested in helping with a Working that changed his country to make<br />
> it more Dragon-y by giving him more power over the Sages?<br />
<br />
Yes (with reservations depending on the details of the Working, because<br />
you can't be from the Precincts without reservations).<br />
<br />
> 7) I think "Fox" is something like "he's loyal to his<br />
> allies/agreements, like Fox, not to any of these other ideas." If<br />
> that's not what it is, what is it?<br />
<br />
That's about right.<br />
<br />
> Yin Questions:<br />
><br />
> 1) Are Ti Lao's "aspirations of Chi" a wish he could be loyal to the<br />
> Empire but he doesn't think it's worthy, or a belief he should be<br />
> loyal to the Empire, but in practice he would choose the Kingdom<br />
> first, or something else entirely?<br />
<br />
More like the former.<br />
<br />
> 2) Does the Steward's Yin part include a particular attachment to the<br />
> Peace of the Lake as a defining aspect of the country?<br />
<br />
This is more like his "Yang for Yin Reasons" nature.<br />
<br />
> 3) Is Lord Sonwu's Yin-ness mostly about trying to expand his country,<br />
> or does he have other goals too?<br />
<br />
"Expand" is too limiting. It's not just about territory. But it's<br />
mostly about that.<br />
<br />
> 4) Why are the First Servant and his wife joined for divination purposes?<br />
<br />
They work as a team, and the job requires one.<br />
<br />
> 5) Are the First Servant and his wife Yin for Chi reasons in the "our<br />
> country is the only one protecting the empire?" way, or is it<br />
> something else?<br />
<br />
That's the main reason, yes.<br />
<br />
> 6) How do the Firelord's Yin reasons support him seeking personal advancement<br />
> ?<br />
<br />
That's the difference between being a strong ruler and a weak one.<br />
<br />
> 7) How connected does the King of the Taiga feel to his Dukes?<br />
<br />
They're pretty strongly connected. Fealty is a two-way connection.<br />
<br />
> Chi Questions:<br />
><br />
> 1) What personal benefit does Lord Yu believes he gains from being Chi-ish?<br />
<br />
Honor.<br />
<br />
> 2) Does being Chi-ish mean Lord Yu would be sympathetic to helping<br />
> Dragon reclaim his place at the top of the Empire?<br />
<br />
Probably, though he tends to let the Pagodas worry about the mystical<br />
stuff.<br />
<br />
> 3) Does the Mayor think the Empire will be *better* if it becomes the<br />
> Spider Empire, or is he merely hopeful to see that for Yang reasons?<br />
<br />
He does think it will be better, though kind of in the same way that a<br />
rich libertarian thinks the unrestrained free market is better than the<br />
alternative.<br />
<br />
> 4) Would the Mayor change his feelings about the Spider Empire if he<br />
> knew Spider was really Aku?<br />
<br />
A non-zero amount, but less than you would like.<br />
<br />
> 5) Has the Mayor picked a candidate for Emperor that he plans to back?<br />
<br />
Yes, but not inexorably so.<br />
<br />
> 6) What are the most important connections outside the Taiga the King<br />
> of the Taiga feels?<br />
<br />
The Taiga regent is one. There are several other people who he has a<br />
robust favor exchange with in other countries, most of them<br />
Fox-aspected.<br />
<br />
> 7) What are the most important connections inside the Taiga, other<br />
> than to his Dukes, that the King of the Taiga feels?<br />
<br />
The Zhaos.</div>Takanata
