11-16-07, 08:30 AM		Hello!! It's me again...

I got all 3 books of Empires trilogy on a sale. I noticed reading Horselords that the Tuigans were like asian people....Just wan't to ask how do they look like? So that I can paint a better picture of them on my mind as I start doing my reading hobbies.
Do they look like the dudes from ONce Upon A Time in China? Or do they look like japanese? Do they look like thailand people? Or mongol people with wicked beards on their faces?

-Shou Lung is pretty much China. i mean, The Dragonwall? remind you of anthing large and monumental?
-Wa is ancient Nippon or Japan basically.
