Use of "bury" as the "mill" keyword + "their" instead of "(s)he"

I think chant should have a period before it. It seems too easy to misread these effects as the target player chanting instead of you.

That's possible. Chant is indeed problematic. Some of that discussion can be found on Radiance of Unsullied Light's comment section.

Removed the flavor text in favor of bury reminder at the end of chant reminder text.

Compare to Jace's Erasure. Should cost 1U or 2U I think, but definitely more than U.

Yes, {1}{u} seems reasonable as indicated by the latest test draft. That also means I can with good conscience drop Hallowed Dormancy to {u} (so that reasonable diversity in mana costs is maintained at each rarity). I'll probably add that 'then you chant' for this now that it was used for Sapphire-Winged Herald.

I thank you wholeheartedly for all the comments btw. While binge-commenting custom sets can be satisfying, it also takes time and effort, so I appreciate that a lot.

It's gonna take some time for me to chew through all these comments and apply the according changes...
