"Thank you. I consider myself a student of history." Shang Tsung replies, reaching for the book now that Silco has confirmed he's done with it. "And now it seems I have much to get caught up on."

He tucks the book under his arm, but Silco's current volume also caught his eye. "Attempting to understand the lay of the political landscape." He observes, and smiles thinly. "I'm sure I shall be asking after that volume as well, before long. I am Shang Tsung. A pleasure to make your acquaintance."
