Can I still use Secluded Shrine to gain honor, as long as I bring Duelist with a printed honor loss of two or less into play?
Sahara Sensei Reduce your Honor losses from your Duelists by 2. Interrupt, w: If the action creates a duel, after your Personality wins, give him "Battle: Fear equal to this Personality's Force."
Secluded Shrine Limited: If you have not lost Honor from cards you own this game and your Family Honor is below your starting Honor, gain 1 Honor.

Secluded Shrine Limited: If you have not lost Honor from cards you own this game and your Family Honor is below your starting Honor, gain 1 Honor.
If a loss is reduced to 0, it ceases to be a loss. As long as your family honor has not actually gone down as a result of your own cards, you may use Secluded Shrine.
