At last, the Mask of the Lunar Eclipse that I have poured my heart and soul into is complete. It is no overstatement to say that I have spent myself completely in this endeavour, but it was worth it.
I want to thank you sincerely for all your support.
The way to make the mask only became clear to me when you reconstructed the ancient documents on the lost Rite of Descent. You also solved the mystery of the materials to use and gathered them for me. The Rite of Descent will surely produce the results you desire, and the true Mask of the Lunar Eclipse will take shape.
The true Mask of the Lunar Eclipse is not the foul artifact that brought about the terrible Day of Tranquility spoken of in our legends.
No, that disaster was caused because the mask made by my ancestor, Soetsu, was less than perfect.
Thanks to you, this mask will open the door to the Hallowed Realm Soetsu wrote of.
As I must perform my role as keeper of the masks during the Kagura, I cannot witness the Rite of Descent with my own eyes, but I will be praying for its success.

長い間心血をそそいだ月蝕の面が
ようやく完成し、
私は全てを使い果たした気がする。
あなたの力添えに感謝したい。
失われた帰来迎の文献を復元し
その方法を明らかにした。
そして、なにより月蝕の面の
鍵であった塗料の謎を紐解き、
必要なものをそろえてくれた。
帰来迎は必ずや望むべき成果をあげ、
終に月蝕の面は真の完成を見るだろう。
真の月蝕の面は決して
伝承の如き忌まわしき
「無苦の日」を
生み出す邪なものではない。
災いは、宗悦が打った月蝕の面が
不完全だった故に起きたものだ。
この面は、宗悦が記した
「零域」への扉を開いてくれるだろう。
あなたの執念が実を結んだのだ。
神楽の間、私は面の守を
務めなければならぬ。
帰来迎には立ち会えぬが、
影ながら成功を祈っている。
四方月 宗也
