Togashi Tsuri Dragon Clan • Monk • Tattooed • Experienced • Unique Battle : Exchange Tsuri's Force or his Chi with the same stat on a target Presonality opposing him. Reaction : After a Ring bows: Gain 1 Honor.

Ring of Air Air After you successfully resolve your third or later Spell or Kiho action in one turn from cards with different titles: You may put this card in play from your hand. Battle/Open : Bow this card or discard it from your hand: Straighten a target Personality.

Togashi Masujiro is bowed. I straighten him via Ring of Air. Can I use his reaction and gain 2 honor?

Same scenario but with Togashi Tsuri (Experienced). Can I use his reaction and gain 1 honor?

Thanks!
