			\|quote=The black water must not be allowed to envelop the flame. The Shadowspring cannot be approached without the flame in hand. The black water is cleansed and pure water restored. The shrine maidens tinged by shadow beckon outsiders to the dark sun. The flame must remain lit to keep the black water at bay. The flame must not be extinguished. This flame can illuminate the black water. This flame protects us all from evil. We must keep the pure water for eternity. The caskets are forged of the flame to protect the pillars within. To cleanse the black water, the forbidden flame... The flame must not die, or disaster will come.
