[ The faces of the statues phase in and out of her vision, like a television set that can't quite decide on a channel. She's not sure if they're not clear because of her own lack of perception, of the ritual magicks, or mayhaps its simply because they're not hers, but it's unnerving nonetheless. Not enough to stop her though--or Nero, she wagers.

He's a tough one. A lot of talk but also a lot of heart. The sort of person you know you can rely on and while this is a big test of their teamwork, Himeka has full faith in him. He's not let her down in anyway yet. ]

Hmm...yeah. It could be that destroying the stone they're taking on wouldn't actually kill them...or they just don't want us ruining their nice statues.

[ "Nice" is very subjective. They're really horrifying.

But as she comes to stop in front of one of them, it takes on a new twisted appearance: great wings, unnervingly long arms, a twisting scaly tail...

And her face.

Her Entity is the sin eater she almost became. ]

I've just been calling it "Eater".

[ She stares up at the statue as it sneers down at her, but it's "Himeka Sui" that she writes with the chalk. ]
