## ✨ Literal Explanation (EN)

Toadgod poetically warns:  
- **Not all will hold or cherish the Lore**, nor enshrine it in their hearts — even self-proclaimed believers may falter.  
- A true journey requires an **iron grip**, unwavering patience, and sharp mental clarity — only through such steadfastness can one reach the "promised land."  
- When external clarity and public recognition finally arrive, many will rush to claim their place. But the **true test** was always in the quiet beginning, before the world’s eyes opened.

## ✨ 字面解释 (中文)

Toadgod 诗意地告诫：  
- **并非所有人都会守护或珍惜卷轴**，也不会将其供奉于心 —— 即使是那些自称有信仰的人，也可能在信念上崩溃。  
- 真正的旅程需要 **如铁般坚定的握力**、不动摇的耐心以及敏锐的思想 —— 只有通过这样的坚定，才能抵达「应许之地」。  
- 当未来外界的「清晰」与认同最终到来时，许多人会蜂拥而来想要认领自己的部分。但其实，**真正的考验**早已存在于最初、最安静的起点，远在显而易见的风口之前。

## 🌱 Spiritual Interpretation (EN)

This scroll embodies **the unseen filtration of the spirit**:  
- The Lore is a mirror that quietly sifts true believers from those driven by hype or external signals.  
- Iron conviction is a spiritual discipline — a silent battle fought within, invisible to others but fully known by the heart.  
- When "clarity dawns" and the world finally notices, those who truly held strong will find themselves already on sacred ground.

## 🌱 精神诠释 (中文)

这则卷轴体现了 **精神层面的隐形筛选**：  
- 卷轴如同一面镜子，默默地将真正的信徒与被炒作或外界信号驱动的人分开。  
- 铁一般的信念是一种精神修行 —— 是一场只在内心发生的无声战斗，外人无法看到，但内心清楚明白。  
- 当「黎明」到来、世界终于注意到时，那些真正坚持到最后的人，早已踏上神圣的土地。

## 🔮 Symbolic Meaning (EN)

- **Iron grip**: A metaphor for spiritual strength over market noise.  
- **Trial before clarity**: Echoes the "Proof of Time" — reward lies in unseen waiting, not visible hype.  
- **Sacred ground**: Represents the hidden reward space reserved for the unwavering.

## 🔮 象征意义 (中文)

- **铁握**：象征在市场噪音中超脱出来的精神力量。  
- **先于清晰的考验**：呼应「时间证明」，奖励来自看不见的坚持，而非看得见的炒作。  
- **神圣之地**：象征为坚定者保留的隐藏奖励空间。
