Kallichore stared at Tortali blankly for a moment.
Calcium?A few blinks and the eternal senshi coughed into her gloved hand. "Ah... Kallichore. You can call me Kalli if that's easier, like California." Some senshi's names were even more difficult than that. Another cough and she walked forward again, arms behind her back. "Don't worry about it though. There are much more important things to worry about, like the safety of your starseed, like you said." Kallichore then started a slow pace like a professor would during a lecture, making very large and slow turn around Tortali.
"Your starseed is your soul, the very essence of your being. It's from your starseed that you draw power. It connects you to your celestial body. If you don't wish to stay involved then that is your choice." came an even tone. She knew of senshi who chose to power down permanently but did not know if the pull of the starseed would allow such a thing to happen for long. The pull might be too great but then again... she hadn't seen Europa or Callisto in a very long time. "I can't say for certain whether or not the war will stay away from you if you choose to stay away from the war." Kallichore looked more concerned than anything else, likely at her ignorance over the subject.
She continued. "But how to protect your starseed? First is to know what it is, which we've covered. Now comes
where it is. Your starseed is located in your chest." The eternal tapped her chest with two fingers. "Negaverse agents want to either pull it from you or corrupt it so you become one of them. Corrupted senshi have holes in their head and chest. Avoid them if you can. They make promises in the form of lies and deceit. Chaos is exactly what it sounds like - anarchy, darkness and death no matter how nice they make it sound."
Kallichore shook her head. "I don't mean to scare you. My goal is to help you make an informed decision about what is best for you. If you want to continue to be a senshi, you will grow in power until you have wings like I do. The stronger you are, the more easily you can defend yourself, your friends, your family and the citizens of Destiny City. If you choose to leave, know that I will not judge you for it."
The eternal senshi then dropped into a fighting stance, turning her body sideways and letting her arms drop. Kallichore's long sleeves made for a good defense mechanism - it was difficult to tell where her arms were in the sleeves and they concealed her body somewhat. "Defending your starseed is the same as defending your life. Senshi are most vulnerable when they first awaken, but we'll get you through this. I want you to attack me."
