Uzume obeyed the commands of Ninigi, and is greatly honoured in Saruta for her courage, her mirth, and her beauty.
Now Ninigi, with the Prince of Saruta as his guide, travelled throughout the kingdom over which he was to rule.
He therefore presented both his daughters to Ninigi, expressing the hope that the suitor's choice would fall upon Iha-naga.
The terrestrial deity, Sarudahiko, receiving news of the approach of Ninigi and his divine retinue, came out to greet him.
