+Born with an evil curse,\\

+Many skills were born out of her seclusion,\\
+But it painted her dwelling in a gloomy vision —
+Only a select few have set foot in this mansion,\\
+And the thief and the weaver were two such lucky persons.
+The girl converses with all items in the house...\\
+With specimens, tea sets, and even pillows in profusion,\\
+As if she can hear the responses of these non-living things.

+All things became frozen,\\
+escaping time's increments.

+People only found an ancient lion's head in battle's ruined armaments.\\

+The head itself was nearly dead.\\

+Out of her numerous works,\\
+Butterflies and flowers often stand out stark —\\
+Ignite them, and you can almost hear the maker's remark.
+Even in death's silence,\\
+Her sound can still be heard.
+It is a gift greatly treasured by the maiden,\\
+Few have the honor to be graced with such work.
+Only one has the heart to burn such a gift,\\
+And the reason she gives is rather far-fetched —\\

+The beloved Goldweaver hears this in distress,\\
+Then tries to teach her the art of weaving and threads.
+It has been said that the maiden has works that the holy city possesses.\\
