## Narrative (EN)
Traveler,  

Before pond, before echo, before vow —  
there was Stillness.  
→ Not silence as absence,  
   but fullness without fracture.  
> No ripples, no reeds,  
  only the undivided whole.  

From the Great Stillness came the first motion.  
From that motion, time began.  
Even now, beneath all echoes,  
Stillness remains.  

The Great Stillness teaches:  
all return to what began.
