WOW! Thanks :)
Cherry, so strait-laced,
but then she falls in love and
falling, Cherry blossoms

I have just moved in, so there is much to be done before I am satisfied with my home. Nevertheless, you are most welcome to whatever poor hospitality my humble dwelling can offer.
I am Tang Yi Han, or as you in the West would say, Yi Han Tang.
I acquired my name by inputting the forename of my other AW persona and my RL surname to this cool gizmo. My forenames, Yi Han, mean 'easy' (Yi) 'writing'(Han). My surname came out as Tang, so there was no hesitation about which family to join.
My avatar determined my choice of country as I was torn between China, Japan and Tibet. The chance to look like Michelle Yeoh, star of the wonderful film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was the clincher. My entrance is a still from the film, as is the picture below.
Exile
A spring day at the edge of the world.
On the edge of the world once more the day slants.
The oriole cries as though it were its own tears
which damp even the topmost blossoms on the tree.
Li Shang-Yin, 812(?) - 58
Translated by A C Graham

As you wander through my house you will discover places that serve as my homebase for certain activities. In the Courtyard I conduct my social activities here at AncientWorlds and in the Orient. My Library is for my historical and academic pursuits. Finally, in my Study you will find my game playing scores, statistics and artifacts. Thanks for visiting my home!

I have made extensive use of the Papyrus font in my home; I can't find a free download, but it seems to come pre-installed with Windows XP.
Most of the CSS on this page came from Bithia Nebet via Arachne's Web. I 'borrowed' the coding for changing the default fonts from Lalita Ashoka, er, that is to say, that I learned wisdom at the feet of a scribe [phew].
