The Little Prince and the Eight-Headed Dragon

In "The Little Prince and the Eight-Headed Dragon," Susanoo, the youngest offspring of the deities Izanagi and Izanami, is a formidable warrior known for his exceptional strength. However, the loss of his mother plunges him into despair, igniting a fierce determination to journey to Heaven in search of her. Armed with nothing but his courage and a boat he crafts from a tree, Susanoo sets off across the vast ocean alongside his loyal rabbit companion, Akahana.

Unfamiliar with the path to Heaven, Susanoo seeks guidance from his siblings, Tsukuyomi, the ruler of the Night Kingdom, and Amaterasu, the leader of the Light Kingdom. While they offer warnings about the perils that lie ahead, neither sibling can provide the directions he seeks. As Susanoo ventures further into the unknown, he awakens Orochi, an eight-headed dragon, which threatens to impede his quest, challenging him to confront the trials that await on his heroic journey.
