Philosopher Shendaow as the eldest philosopher in the Scholar's Garden and so many people frequently asked him questions. Shendao disliked the interruptions as they disturbed his meditations. The Player had the option to ask him a variety of questions on Emperor Sun Hai, Death's Hand and Master Li, but Shendao was not forthcoming with answers. Shendao would only say that Sun Hai was more powerful than any Emperor he had ever known and that Death's Hand was a fiend. He also cautioned the Player against asking question which could lead to trouble.
