Q: Can a Kolat Servant bow to keep a Ninja Stronghold bowed? A: The answer to this is "No", and here's why: Strongholds are a special element of the game. They're not Holdings, and they're not cards -- not even if you use one of the special Stronghold Cards. In fact, they're completely divorced from cards as far as game mechanics go. Something that can affect Strongholds can't affect cards, and vice versa. Notice that since Strongholds aren't cards, the Foo Rule doesn't apply to them either. The "Ancient Temples of the Naga" are neither a Temple nor a Naga card, for example. Legend of the Five Rings FAQ, Version 3.6.2, May 1998, p. 21
