Welcome to the 37th episode of Stories That Made Us. The podcast brings to you stories from cultures and civilizations from around the world, and this week, it is the conclusion of the wondrous and magnificent creation myth of the Japanese. If you have missed the previous two episodes on the Japanese or would like a refresher, it is now a good time to check them out. In part one of the myth, we spoke of the creation of the world and all the deities of natural phenomena by the gods Izanagi and Izanami. In the second part, we continued the story with the tale of Amaterasu, the sun goddess, and Sosa Nowono, the mischievous trickster god. The episode concluded with the travels and tribulations of the deity named Ohona Moji. The episode ended when the Ohona Moji finally found happiness after marrying Suseri Hime, the daughter of Sosa Nowono. He found his own kingdom in the province of Izumo. The finale that is this episode, continues with his story and concludes with the end of the reign of Gods and deities upon the earth, and the beginning of the reign of emperors.
