As the song unfolds, the chrysanthemum crest opens to reveal the creator deities Izanagi and Izanami standing on the Ama no Ukihashi (heavenly bridge). They plunge the Ama no Nuboko (heavenly spear) into the ocean, and the droplets dripping from the spear transform into the islands of Japan. Following the violent deeds of her brother Susanoo, the sun goddess Amaterasu withdraws and seals herself inside the Ama no Iwato (heavenly cave). The gods assemble around the cave while the goddess Ame no Uzume performs a dance before it. When Amaterasu looks out to observe the commotion, the god Tajikarao forces open the stone door, restoring the radiant light of heaven. A golden kite alights on the heavenly bow that rises from the clouds. The light radiating from the kite drives away the evil spirits of Japan. Lastly, the three sacred treasures—the sacred sword, jewel, and mirror—appear.
