Note 3 — Chapter XXI · Ancient Mikados and Heroes
Reading edition
When engaged pacifying the land, Jimmu followed a gigantic crow3 that had been sent down from heaven to guide him. He possessed a magic celestial cross-sword and a fire-striker. His two brothers, who accompanied him on an expedition across the sea, leapt overboard when a storm was raging so that the waves might be stilled. They were subsequently worshipped as gods.
