Before this world was formed, there was another world with a sky made of sandstone. One day the two gods, Thunderer and Nagaicho, decided to make a land below. They put pleasurable things below such as in the south they made flowers, and in the east was clouds so people won't get headaches from the sun's glare. To make clouds they built a fire. In the west they made an opening for fog.

They were now ready for the making of humans. They used clay to make the body and put grass inside for its stomach. Then they used some more grass for a heart and a reed for his windpipe. They destroyed red rocks and added water to make blood. Then the gods broke his leg and formed woman.
