A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.

Just to clarify, from this response.
If I play The Price of Weakness: a) First the target gets -4 force, then bows if he has the Shadowlands keyword. Then a Personality in my army gets +3 force.
or b) First the target gets -4 force. Then, if the target has the Shadowlands keyword he bows and a Personality im my army gets +3 force.

You only get to hand out +3F if the first target was Shadowlands. The bowing effect will happen first, then the +3 Force.
