The Promise of Hikohohodemi-no-mikoto

Thus, the deity of sea decided to send Hikohohodemi-no-mikoto to his own country by getting him on a large shark or crocodile. When Hikohohodemi-no-mikoto was just leaving the nation of the deity of sea, Toyotama-hime told reservedly him that she was expecting. She said to him, “I will visit seashore of your country in a windy day when I bear our baby. I would appreciate it if you could build a childbirth cabin for me.”
