Lenore put her hand on Kaliri's shoulder and squeezed. She knew how it felt to be in a place like this.

Ignoring the hand on her shoulder, Kaliri reached her arm around behind Lenore, and held her close to her own side. She knew Lenore understood.

Kumori slide the blade of the Kunai across his palm, the pressed the bleeding palm to the ground, making an oath to all of Kaliri's forbearers. "I will protect her with my life in anything she comes up against. I swear to you that no harm will come to her while I still live. If harm should befall her while I yet live I offer my life as forfeit I make this oath and seal it with my lifes blood." He then took his hand up from the ground, but stayed in his kneeling position.

Lenore could hear Kumori speaking, but from so far away, she couldn't tell what he was saying. She turned towards him, seeing him crouching there. She saw the blood on the ground, and simply nodded at him.

Kaliri turned when Lenore did, and looked at Kumori. She looked at him kneeling there, and thought nothing of it, till she saw a dark spot on the ground beneath him. A sudden rush of emotion welled up in her, and tears sprang up in her eyes. She took a bandana out of her pocket, and walked over to where Kumori was crouched. She made a move to lift his hand in hers.

Kumori let her take his hand in hers, but other then that, he made no other movement.

Lenore raised her eyebrow, but otherwise ignored the two of them. She instead turned her attention to the statues. Somehow, they looked familiar.

Kaliri wiped the hand off, then tore off a strip of her shirt to bandage it, and stood up, watching Lenore.

Kumori stayed kneeling and looked over at Lenore to see what she was about.

Lenore looked around the vault and inspected the statues. Something about them was familiar, but she couldn't tell what. She filed away the basics of the appearances, then turned to watch Kumori, not threateningly, or unusually intently, but with that hint of a smile on her face. She waited to see what he was going to do, or say to Kaliri. She liked to watch him try to prove to her what he was capable of...

Kaliri stood and took a step away from Kumori, but couldn't help but watch him as well. There was just something about him that demanded her attention. She continued to stare at him, lost in thought.

Kumori looked at the two women watching him, as if they expected him to do somethig special. He had no idea what they want him to do, all he knew was that this place was special and that he would not do anything to disrespect it. He felt as if there was a great power here, and had no intention on drawing its wrath. Finally he sighed under their watchful eyes and stood up, though he did not move from the spot he had ben kneeling in. Once he was standing he looked around at the statues again so that he would not be able to see the women looking at him. As he did he noticed that one of the statues now had a smile on her face, and a wet spot under one eye. Upon seeing this his eye's widened slightly his only indication of surprise.

Lenore turned to look where Kumori was staring. The woman he was looking at had a long robe on, but even so, she was shorter than the rest of the statues. She had her hair cut much like Kaliri's and had the same fine, delicate hands. though the smile quirked at an angle no one had ever seen on Kaliri, It was quite obvious that this woman was closest in the line, and the stone was clearly of the newest carved. Just beside that place, was an empty pedestal, clearly awaiting a statue. Lenore took a step closer and examined all the eyes of the statues. They were all the same! This had to be the most direct line Lenore had ever seen in a chamber like this. How did all of these get into a chamber as closed off as this?!? She stared, wide-eyed.

Kaliri followed the eyes of her friends, settling on the statue. "She's beautiful, isn't she? It's been a long time since she looked like that, though..."

"What do you mean look like that? Do their expressions change?" Kumori asked quietly.
