Guardian Statues are small alter like shrines found around Shinshu Field. They are part of a side quest for Praise however you cannot complete it until you clear Shinshu Field of it's Demon Gates and restore the Nameless Man's kiln. Although if you examine one before this Issun will mention that they look lonely.
If you talk to the Nameless Man after his kiln returns he will give you a pot with Amaterasu must bite and bring it to one of the five statues which will then give out Praise. It does not matter which statue you bring a certain pot too. If you talk to the Nameless Man after you have offered up all the statues he will give you a Stray Bead.
