Actually, since I have an idea of what it probably means, I should share it:
We cannot cure the Rot, but we can slow it down and allows her to live with it.
The reason I think that is the fact cleanrot knights exists, an entire order of the closest and most loyal knights under Malenia, who all got the Scarlet Rot from the extended exposure but have one of the needles from Miquella to slow the advance of it so that instead of having minutes to hours, they have years.
Now, it's not a pleasant state, they are still rotting from the inside, they are still unable to touch anyone without risking them dying from Rot, but at least they live, and are in control of themselves.
That is what I think *ease her pain* means, make her functional, if still in a horrible state, the closest to curing her we can give.
And Chelia hasn't learned and mastered Sky God Slayer Magic that allows her to heal pre-7 year timeskip at the time.

Let's not spread horrors beyond human comprehension for shits and giggles, please

But that's the fun part!
More seriously, we can probably make our own cleanrot knights if we ease her pain, and do we do allow her to live if we do that.
Sure it's not pleasant, but it's that or death for her right now, and while I'm not Franken Fran level of *alive at all costs!*, I still do think she's better alive than dead, there is a sloght chance to find a way to make things better if she's alive, there isn't if she's dead.
Edit:
Plus, it's a little late to say not to spread the Rot when the situation is that it's already out of the box.

Imagine if Malenia hear about Healing Magic on Earth Land being quite rare and apparently lost like we see with Wendy and Chelia possessing respective Slayer Magics that can heal.
I don't really see what healing magic has to do with anything there?
Cleanrot knights are not about healing magics that much, they are about slowing the Rot in particular, nothing more nothing less.
Malenia won't care about the state of healing magic IMO, she's not really a magic girl, more a sword one.
Miquella would care, but we're not playing Miquella.
Fair enough.
Although Malenia might have to contend with the Magic Council should they perceive her from their point of view to be a threat when learning she has the Scarlet Rot and have her detained or killed before she goes Patient Zero on Fiore and its neighboring countries of Ishgar.
Either sending in the top Wizard Saint God Serena or just fire Etherion at her location.
I... sorry, what?
Why would they?
Like, this world isn't warhammer 40K, they are not searching for any excuses to imprison people, if they did that Gildarts would be a wanted man just because his magic can destroy everything around him on a whim, in fact, every single high rank magician would, as quite a number of them are perfectly able to devastate countries.
You really need to calm down your guesses, you seem to have a tendency to leave the realm of the probable for the realm of the out of reasonable expectations quite fast.

In fairness, this is the same Magic Council that canonically thought it was a great idea to replace their destroyed Etherion with a bunch of magic warheads to kill their own population if Alvarez ever tries to invade them.
Assuming they will do something monumentally stupid is not completely wrong. Although like with the general assholery going around, I am toning that down. No Face in this story.

It may not be completely wrong, but it definitely is way too soon.
We haven't interacted with them, this is way too soon to even think about that, particularly since we had a demonstration that people can't automatically detect the Scarlet Rot on sight, sure, some more dedicated magician may, but still too soon for that level of speculation.
New magics don't seem to be treated as potential nukes everytime they pop up, a new disease has no reason to when as far as they know, it is transmitted on touch.
Wait until we bloom and leave a zombie apocalypse behind, then we can discuss how the Council will try to erase us.

I get the Invincible reference there.
I checked that Magic Council had possessed both Etherion and Face from the start and Jellal happened to be one of the three Organic Link Magic seals when he was Siegrain, member of the Magic Council.
And when Ajeel led the unsanctioned invasion, the Magic Council brandished both said weapons to make Alvarez back off or else they use Etherion to fire on the empire from above and launch the Face bombs like intercontinental missiles towards Alakitasia.

It's this that signals to me that Mallenia may have more control over the Rot than she thinks she does.
Regarding "turning back time", I mean we have a Chronomancer on hand apparently? So if we can pull the Rot away enough to count as its own Object, the guy might be able to reverse time on it maybe?
It just seems to me that the reminder to remember the Rules, and that one of the Rules is that Write Ins are always an option unless specified not to be, means that we don't need to limit ourselves to the three options in front of us?
And like my first line says, what does it hurt to try?
Either it works, opening up a new path of control over her own life for Mallenia, or it doesn't and does nothing, at which point we likely default to the second highest winner of Easing (in the scenario where my write in wins), or it doesn't and it exasperates the condition at which point things go wrong for people who sought violence and found out and we have a bit of clean up to do to make sure the local civilians aren't harmed.

(I kind of want Sherry to live, I like her character a lot and she is Redeemable. Plus having her as a Cleanrot Knight Analog and joining up with Malenia Gives Malenia a Foil of sorts as well as someone who knows this world, and let's be real, SHerry may want to stick with Malenia Regardless since...well...Malenia is her best shot at a Cure as far as she knows. In fact, add that to the rest of Lyon's little troupe. I can see them either sticking with Malenia and Sherry should that scenario come to pass, or searching for a cure themselves. This is all assuming that Lyon is willing to completely drop his grudge with Deliora over this of course.)

[X] What does it hurt to try? A new land, a new order, some new control over the Rot within your own soul? Reach out to the Rot within Sherry and reclaim it, pulling it back from her and within your vessel, that prison which keeps it locked away from others.
