Soul of the Winds - Battle: Target one of your Personalities: Ranged 2 Attack that can target a dishonorable Personality with Followers if your Personality is a Magistrate. Gain 2 Honor if the Ranged Attack destroyed a card.

Is this card simply a ranged 2 attack? You don't need a dishonorable person as the target?

Soul of the Winds: You don't need a dishonorable person as the target?

No, you do not. http://rules.l5r.com/Glossary_C#Can: "Text that says something “can” happen overrides any rules mentioned in the text that prohibiting that thing from happening", which in this case is targeting a Personality with followers.
