Prayers can be done ad-hoc or at a family shrine. When a geroo is recycled, their necklace is placed in a family shrine kept in the home of their descendants. Large, prestigious families can have massive shrines going back dozens of generations. Most families will have shrines that only contain necklaces from those in living memory. A traditional geroo prayer is

in a chain unbroken like the necklaces we wear,
leading us all the way back home.
