Ōhirume-no-Muchi

 biography  Ohirume no Muchi, the first deity among all the kami born from the body of Izanagi, is regarded as the most radiant of them all, acknowledged and cherished by both her father and mother. A gifted child favored above her brothers; Tsukuyomi no Mikoto and Susano’o no Mikoto, her birthright was to rule the Heavenly Plains, Takamagahara.
At a young age, she was crowned Queen of the Gods and ruled Takamagahara with benevolence. Though youthful and naïve, she was eloquent and intelligent, ensuring that the gods prospered under her reign. Still, she was but a young lady, she often abandons her duties and played alongside her brothers until she was inevitably forced back to her responsibilities.Throughout her early life, her brothers were the only ones who truly understood her, loving her for who she was and in return, she showed them endless patience. That bond, however, was shattered one tragedy at a time. First came Susano’o, whose cruel prank led to the death of Wakahirume, a goddess dearly close to Amaterasu. Consumed by grief, she hid herself within a cave, plunging the entire world into darkness. When the gods finally succeeded in luring her out, Susano’o was exiled as punishment.The second blow came from Tsukuyomi. Tasked with representing his sister at Ukemochi’s banquet, he was repulsed by the way she created food and, in his disgust, killed her. When Amaterasu learned of this act, her fury was absolute. She vowed never to look upon Tsukuyomi again, forever separating herself from him by moving to another part of the sky.With the loss of Wakahirume and her separation from her brothers, Amaterasu was left utterly alone. Surrounded by kami who sought to exploit her status as queen, she withdrew from her own kind, refusing to form meaningful bonds. Instead, she found herself drawn closer to humanity and the mortal realm, distancing herself from her divine path.At present, she continues to reign over Takamagahara and stands as part of the conglomerate of Solar Sovereigns alongside Ra, Arao, Helios, Shamash, Huitzilopochtli, and many others. Among the sun gods, she is considered the sixth strongest. Though distant and reserved toward most deities, she holds a particular fondness for Arao and Ra.
