ENJA

The shrine maidens use the water as a conduit between the living and the dead. Those who come to the mountain are transfixed by death. To die is to return to the water. The water is connected to everything. The shrine maidens glance into the souls of the dying, taking on their final memories. Then, the shrine maidens become the Pillars... and those memories are submerged in the water. If water really is connected to everything, then this mountain, overflowing with water, must also be overflowing with death.

巫女は人と死を媒介している。水によって・・・
この山に入る人は死へあこがれている。
死は、水に帰ることなのだ。
すべては水でつながっている・・・
巫女たちは看取りによって、
死者の最後の記憶を引き受ける。
そして、巫女たちは柱となり・・・
記憶は水に沈んでいく・・・
全てが水でつながっているとしたら、
水に満ちたこの山は・・・死の山だ・・・
