[Task 2]: God & Godesses: Izanagi


Izanagi was the first god of Earth who created the world in Japanese mythology. Izanagi was married to his sister, but while she was giving birth, she died. Izanagi loved her so much that he went to the underworld and begged for her to go back with him but she denied. Izanagi created the first cleaning rites whereas then the sun, the moon, the storm and the seas were created.
