Those who are to be Pillars are placed into reliquaries filled with Black Water.
The maiden lies within the Black Water. This is not death but an eternal sleep.
She shall not age, but stay as she was, an Immortal Flower.
Sleeping in the Black Water brings dreams of death, endlessly repeating.
When the maiden can stand no more, her body dissolves, and her role as a Pillar is ended.
Only the strongest maidens become an Immortal Flower.
Via this eternal suffering we become eternal.
Such is our role in appeasing the Shadowspring.

柱となりし巫女は
夜泉に満たされた匪へと入れられる
巫女は匪の中で夜泉に触れ、眠りにつく
それは死ではなく、永久の眠り
眠りの間、巫女は老いることなく、
その姿を保ち続ける
ゆえに、永久花と呼ばれる
夜泉による眠りは死の繰り返し
永久に続くそれは永久の苦しみである
巫女の心が果てた時、その身体は
夜泉へ融け出し、柱の役割を終える
強き心を持つ巫女のみが
永久花として夜泉の中で生き続ける
その永き苦しみにより
我らもまた永らえ、苦しみ続ける
それが、黒キ澤を鎮めし我らの役目
