Reaching the shrine finally, not completely unaware that something was on the grounds that shouldn't be, Seishin does the cleansing ritual that was required before stepping within the actual holy shrine building. Bowing his head after doing so, he waits a few seconds before entering between the two doors that were open to him, and once he passed through, the close behind him automatically.<br/><br/>Quiet footsteps lead him to the altar, which sat before the large golden statue of the god in which the temple was made. It was a rather odd looking one though. It had the body of a human, though it was thin and very lithe shaped. Having eight arms, each hand was forming a symbol with it's fingers. It was wearing an outfit similar to what Seishin was wearing. It's hair was done up very fancy. Around it were five different other statues, though smaller. One was of a phoenix, Suzaku, who's wings covered one the statues eyes, though the other was closed as well. The second was a tiger, Byakko, a paw covering half the mouth. The third, a dragon, Seiryuu, had a clawed and scaled paw that covered one of the god's ears. And, the large wings of a second, larger dragon, Kohryuu, spread out around all of them, the large head of the dragon hovering above the god and the other animals. Protecting them in a sense.<br/><br/>All of this was to depict the power that was of some other world, the power that not only this god had, but Seishin as well.  Another might depict it as 'See No Evil, Hear No Evil, Speak No Evil' but be aware of it's presence all around you. Don't blind yourself to it, and never turn your back to it either. Do this, and you will be blessed with the power of the gods. However, some might say it was blasphemous, because only a certain few had the ability, and more often than not only one person every few hundred years had that great power, more so than others. Like Seishin for example.<br/><br/>Kneeling down in front of it, first lighting candles and incense sticks on the alter, and placing a bowl of sake and some fruit, along with a scroll down upon the place for offerings, he places his hands together, though his forefinger and middle finger on his right hand were pointed up right. Bowing his head, he begins to murmur in an ancient language, as he prayed.<br/><br/>And as he did this, a light began to glow around the statue, and after a moment the closed eye opened, gazing down upon the kneeling figure of Seishin. Then, slowly, it's arm reaches out to touch the space upon Seishin's brow, just above the space between his eyebrows. He falls silent at the touch, kneeling there quietly. Images flash through his mind, quickly, so that it was all a blur to him All this happens, but Seishin doesn't dare open his eyes. Only when the feeling was gone, and he could sense that all around was dark, does he open his eyes.<br/><br/>The candles were put out, but the incense was still burning, grey smoke curling up in to the air. Standing up, he bows to the statue, before turning away and walking back outside. He closes the door behind him, sighing deeply. It had been quite some time since that had happened...As he began to walk towards the breakfast area, he takes a longer route, heading through the gardens, to allow himself to think over the images that were flowing in his mind. Just what was going on? Did this have to do with the things he'd seen the other day?<br/><br/>As he walked, his eyes looked around, and after a moment he notices something underneath a large tree, laying in the grass. Narrowing his eyes, he leaves the path to go see what it was, and what he finds wasn't what he'd wanted to find.<br/><br/>"What are you doing here?" He murmurs softly to the vampire, crossing his arms over his chest, and stares down at the man. Didn't he know that he was in danger here?
