Not everyone is granted a chance to see the Emperor. You must first prove your worth. Are you willing to prove yours?
”Ken Lee is the adviser of the Emperor of the Shi[1] in Fallout 2.
Background[]
Ken Lee appears much like any other bureaucrat: Short, stocky, and wearing glasses. The only element that doesn't fit is the half-smile, which is more than most bureaucrats can manage (and his travels to New Reno).[2] His official position in the Shi is that of adviser to their leader, the Shi Emperor. From his position in the Steel Palace, Ken Lee brings the wisdom of the Emperor to his subjects, acting as screen for their ruler, permanently hidden from prying eyes.[3][4]
The reason for that is simple: The Emperor is not a human being. He, or rather, it, is a supercomputer salvaged from the Shi-huang-ti, the submarine that brought the Shi to San Francisco in the first place. Ken Lee consults the computer and makes decisions based on its predictions. His style of rule is therefore calm and rational. Even when it comes to the most hated enemy of the Shi, the Hubologists, he is calm and to the point. He is also fully aware of the existence of the Enclave and Navarro, as well as the technologies at their disposal, but not the extent of their plans.[5]
