The cave goes in a long way, twisting slightly as it does, and rising up toward a natural stone shelf, almost like a dais. Upon this rests a glittering statue of a woman, humanoid with mantis-like features. Her long robes are simple but fine, sweeping out behind her on the rock dais. Her legs are drawn up in a lotus position, her barbed arms clasped before her face.
This is the resting place of Neke-Seaya, daughter of the House of Neke, one of the most respected families of Top, and promising sculptress and programmatrix prior to her self-suspension. Seaya objected to her arranged marriage to Celeth amn-Culn, and vanished on her recombination day along with all of her existing backups. After days of frantic searching, her body - this statue - was discovered here, petrified and encrypted.
Even during the Neke's long absence, the family's processors still remained engaged in breaking the encryption and restoring her, though it is estimated that it will take several more centuries.
Seaya is a mask.
