Dedication
) Aung San Suu Kyi is a renowned pro-democracy activist, advocate of non-violence, and prisoner of conscience in Burma.

] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) Given the rules for the previous
Lone Wolf
books, it seems odd that a Grand Master is only allowed to choose to be proficient in one of the few Weapons listed in the
Equipment section
. In view of the unprecedented nature of this rule, you might decide that it is acceptable to be proficient in any of the ten Weapons that the Kai typically train to use.
[
3
] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) The rules in the Collector's Editions state that the bonus for Grand Weaponmastery with Bow is 5. Certain sections direct the reader to use different bonuses when using a Bow, ranging from 3 to 5, if you have Grand Weaponmastery with Bow. This may be the author adjusting the Grand Weaponmastery bonus on a case-by-case basis (and therefore this bonus should be used instead of the standard bonus) or an error (and therefore all of these bonuses should be 5). It is up to you to decide, but it seems most reasonable to follow the first alternative, to replace the Grand Weaponmastery bonus with whatever bonus is mentioned in that section.
[

] (
New Order Kai Grand Master Disciplines
) Details about the Kai Weapon appear in the next section of the game rules.
[
7
] (
Levels of New Order Kai Grand Mastership
) It is unclear why a New Order Grand Master becomes a Supreme Master by mastering only 15 of the 16 Grand Master Disciplines. It is also unclear why New Order Grand Masters must master four extra Disciplines in order to receive the same improvements to their Disciplines as Lone Wolf did with fewer.
[

] (
Section 17
) It is possible that you have fewer than 3 Gold Crowns. If so, you give all of your remaining Crowns to the tavern-keeper's wife.
[
9
] (
Section 23
) This is the correct answer to the troupe leader's puzzle in
Section 40
.
[
10
] (
Section 30
) It appears that the thief gets away with your item, though that is not entirely clear from this passage.
[
11
] (
Section 34
) If you do not have enough Gold Crowns, you may choose to barter a normal Weapon, Backpack Item, or Special Item at your discretion.
[
12
] (
Section 40
) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct.
[
13
] (
Section 47
) The original mentioned that you ‘see your own Arrow strike [the archer] in the chest and knock him down.’ To reach this Section, you must
not
have fired a Bow. Having removed this text, it is left to you to explain why the Grand Master escapes while the archer still lives.
[
14
] (
Section 123
) The original mentioned that you ‘see your own Arrow strike [the archer] in the chest and knock him down.’ To reach this Section, you must
not
have fired a Bow. Having removed this text, it is left to you to explain why the Grand Master escapes while the archer still lives.
[
15
] (
Section 125
) This is the correct answer to the sealed portal puzzle in
Section 174
.
[
16
] (
Section 142
) It is unclear whether the Candles and Arrows cost 1 Gold Crown each or 1 Gold Crown for a group of three. Considering that a Dagger is on sale for 1 Crown and that a Dagger would generally be worth more than a single Arrow (cf.
Section 151
), it may be reasonable to assume that you may buy 3 Candles for 1 Gold Crown and 3 Arrows likewise.
[
17
] (
Section 143
) If you have no normal Weapons or fewer than two Backpack Items, you may choose to substitute Special Items at your discretion.
[
18
] (
Section 174
) The section corresponding to the correct answer will have a footnote confirming that it is indeed correct.
[
19
] (
Section 251
) If you have nothing to offer, you should leave the festival by
turning to 321
.
[
20
] (
Section 321
) If you do not have enough Gold Crowns, you may choose to barter a normal Weapon, Backpack Item, or Special Item at your discretion.
[
21
] (
Section 328
) It is possible that you have fewer than 10 Gold Crowns. If so, you give all of your remaining Crowns to the tavern-keeper's wife.
