I'm not sure if there's precedent for this translation, but a more natural translation would be "The Lifeless Gem of Water" or rearranging that to use Water as a noun-adjective (like "The Lifeless Water Gem"). Honestly, I don't see how they got "Water Gem of Stillness" out of it unless it was an Engrish translation within the episode itself.192.249.47.196 12:40, 17 October 2011 (EDT)
