Actually, a house alarm.

Tiny tables that bear Calligraphy etching, "remembers" one's voice - and if someone, say, opens a door without "greeting" the small statue inside - it starts to whistle, alerting anyone around.

A bit expensive thing, due to Calligraphy is never cheap or easy to apply, but pretty popular. Can vary from simple statues on metal padding that "listens" to vibrations - to beautiful and intricate works of art.

Thus, can be either visible as a decore - or hidden really well somewhere under the ceiling, above the door.

"...There is no such thing as religion among Yaraga - they do not believe, they desire to know and prove.

But they love tales.

What they call spirits or ghosts, or whatever else might go along this line - is always something that has a place in reality, be it twisted by perception or told in words just as is. Yet Yaraga eagerly took ideas from Arzuli fairy-tales - of spirits, of ghosts...

And what once had no name and strict shape - is now seen as a symbol of safety among the living.

A tiny warden spirit, watching over thy doorsteps..."
