The Japanese story of creation tells us that in the beginning everything was chaos. The world was without shape. Izanagi and Izanami were eighth generation Kami who created an island on Earth. They descended to this island to reproduce. Izanami gave birth to the Japanese Islands and to some Kami. When she gave birth to the Kami of fire, she was burned so badly that she died. She was buried on Mount Hiba and traveled into the Realm of Death, or Yomi. Izanami traveled to Yomi to bring Izanami back. When he found her, he was so shocked by her rotting corpse that he ran for his life. He rolled a large boulder over the entrance to Yomi, forever separating the realms of the living and the dead. Izanami is now the queen and ruler of Yomi.
