He shakes Lord Tannerson's hand, an gesture he considers foriegn, but he is willing to live in the western way. "Honorable Lord Tannerson, Honored Defender of the Eastern Gate, Marshall of the Twenty Trees, Ranger of Greerson and Paladin of Lune, I respect your judgement, and will abide by your law. I welcome your hospiatlity, and I will gladly tell you of my home."Li trys to make himself comfortable, sitting down if possible, and hoping Lord tannerson will also sit to here of Li's native land. "Ah, it seems so far away now, the land of my birth. I will answer your questions as they were asked, so, first, the samurai. Samurai are noble warriors, honor bound to follow the command of their master. A samurai lives to serve, to fullfill the divine orders of his master, to perfect himself in battle and in art. A samurai is noble, even in death, which brings us to seppuku. When a samurai meets dishonor, or when he is defeated in battle, he will take his own life to restore his honor and that of his family. It is not an easy burden to take, but when he is dishonored a samurai will take his own blade and pierce himslef through the stomach, ending his life, but regaining his honor.""And I, Lord Tannerson, am a samurai in title only. When I left the war in the East, I had no master, since I had mistakenly rejected the great fight with the yuan-ti. Now I search for a new master in this strange land, a honorable lord who I can serve in life and death, and, with his blessing, establish a new order of samurai in this western land, free of the taint of the yuan-ti. My experiences on the Island of Castinimir restired my samurai spirit, and now I long to serve again.""Now, if I may, I would like to ask you a question, honorable Lord Tannerson. Please, tell me of Greerson, this land you serve. I know little of you, yet your devoted service to this land seems closely tied to the service of the samurai."</blockquote>
