Zhang is a Toad Demon? That's hilarious, since toads represent healing, prosperity and positive energy.
Ah, now I see where her charm comes from.Great-grandfather. The mother was a bucket.
treave, since Jing was presumably, educated along with the prince, shouldn't he already know all about, "What were the causes and aftermaths of the warring period between forty and thirty years ago?" Seems to me like it'd be a wasted question if so.
Er, didn't you already say that Jing was an only child?He knows he used to live near the northern border, he had siblings, and that's about it. He wouldn't know where the village is exactly.
I think the only thing we could reasonably expect from this crowd would be the basics of their philosophy / religion. We are not going to get information on their current location or plans or anything like that. The cult just announced their challenge - even the beggars don't yet have much more than we already know.I. What do you know about the Fire Cult and their whereabouts?
Possibly yet another invasion? There is no reason to believe the prince is involved in anything with that at all.II. What is going on on the northern border and how is the prince involved?
I really doubt even the scholars here would have knowledge about something like that. And just because something hasn't been disproved doesn't mean it's the real thing anyway. Maybe we should ask Lady Ji that question.III. What are the legends of achieving immortality that haven't been disproven?
Now that is an interesting question. I was always curios about why the emperor would chose us for the prince's right hand. The only thing that comes to my mind is that we were to serve as a lightning rod for all the misfortune that might affect the prince.IV. What is the significance and power of the sign/star I was born under?
History lesson? Well, it could be interesting, but I would prefer something more recent. And we can ask some of the players we know were active in that period for that as well.V. What were the causes and aftermaths of the warring period between forty and thirty years ago?
We were possibly struck with some kind of a variation of Yuhua Duqing Palm, maybe from a student of that original WiB. I don't think we are going to learn much more than that here. Hell, the sect grandmasters couldn't tell us anything new about that. We should be going to Yuhua Hall instead to ask about a former courtesan with a scar on her face - that might get us somewhere.VI. I was struck by someone with a palm strike that felt like the Yuhua Duqing Palm, but with a crueller, more persistent qi;any idea what it could be?
We already suspect that the original WiB was a rogue and we suspect the motives behind their recent actions as well - to eliminate Zhang Jue. How is that connected to their overall plans is anyone’s guess, but I doubt anyone here can help us with that.VII. What would Yuhua Hall or someone related to them gain from inciting mob against Zhang Jue and his disciple?
No comment.VIII. Are Master Zhang and Lady Ji lovers?
IX. How do we achieve a perfect harem ending?
X. What can change the nature of a man?
Interesting. It certainly sounds like these two skills could be useful, especially if we need some skills to understand more advanced manuals. And our warrior-poet is a bit rusty in the poetry department.XI. Could you tell me kind sir what book could aid me in increasing my understanding of scholarly and artistic knowledge?
Keep in mind that we do not know the players. Even the Masters were no more than mere pawns in this game. Answering the question could help us establish what factions out there may be our allies or our enemies if we seek to prevent another revolt from taking place. It would also give us insight into Tujue history, which might prove useful in resolving the incident on the border.Zero Credibility said:History lesson?

Well it's not a bad question by any means. The problem is we only get two questions and I definitely want XI for potential scholarship increase to be one. The player whose story of history I'm most interested in hearing is our friendly beggar prince commanding one of the best intel-gathering organisations in the country. I don't see anything we could learn from scholars here could be better than that. So I think my other choice will be something we can't get from our other contacts, and I think info about our personal background might be that.Keep in mind that we do not know the players.

History tends to repeat itself.
Something tells me it isn't the scholarship you are after.Zero Credibility said:IV, IX for me.
