Hi heroes!
Ayame's and Kensei's main quest during the game is to retrieve the Three Sacred Treasures to defeat Himiko and Amaterasu.
You might be asking what these treasures are:
⚔️ The Sword - Kusanagi no Tsurugi (草薙劍)
🪞 The Mirror - Yata no Kagami (八咫鏡)
💎 The Jewell - Yasakani no Magatama (八尺瓊勾玉)
Each relic represents one of the three primary virtues: courage, wisdom, and benevolence. According to legend, Ninigi-no-Mikoto brought them to Earth. He is a legendary ancestor of Japan's imperial line sent by his grandmother Amaterasu to pacify Japan. Ninigi eventually passed down the treasures to Emperor Jimmu, so you could say there is divinity to the ruler of Japan. In fact, these three treasures are a central element of the enthronement ceremony since 690.
It makes sense that you will need god-like powers to face divine antagonists like Amaterasu herself.
We hope you enjoyed this piece of trivia. If you want to know more, stay tuned for future updates!
See you 🔜
