It was their first time meeting. The older princess spoke to her wide-eyed seven-year-old sister.
“Listen well. The Umashi-no-Miya exists for no reason but to provide exquisite food to the god as well as me. Do you follow? You there, with the vacant expression of a bear cub who just woke from its winter hibernation.”
“Huh...really?”
Placing a finger on the tip of her perplexed sister’s nose, the princess, who was a decade older, continued, “That’s right. I’m a Saigu who serves Kunimamori-no-Ōkami, the protector of these lands. And you are the Umashi-no-Miya, who will serve the god and me. From now on, you will make food for the god, and after you have offered it, it will be my food to eat. That’s your duty and the reason you have come here. Are you capable of doing that?”
“What? ‘Duty’? It’s my duty?!” the younger princess, who up until now had seemed to be in a daze, exclaimed in excitement, leaning forward. “Um, in that case, Lady Saigu, if I’m able to make good food for you, will this be the place where I belong?”
“The place where you belong?”
“Up until now, everyone has always been at a loss as to what to do with me. ‘This princess has nowhere she belongs,’ they would say. Father and the handmaids always said it too. They were all at a loss. There was no place for me in the palace. But here I have a duty to fulfill, right? Does that mean if I make food you like, this will be where I belong?!” She spoke frantically and filled with expectation, but her voice betrayed a sense of desperation unbefitting of her young age.
Looking back at the young princess, the older sister seemed to have sensed something in her younger sister’s eyes, as she softened her voice.
“Yes, that’s right. If you’re able to make us exquisite food, this will be where you belong, Ayako.”
Upon hearing her sister say this, the young girl’s—Ayako’s—eyes burned even brighter.
“In that case, I promise to make food that the god and you will like!”
That was ten years ago. The conversation took place in Wakoku.
With no backing and no place for her in the imperial palace, the emperor’s ninth princess, Ayako, was given the duty of making food to offer the god, and become Ayako the Umashi-no-Miya. Ayako would never forget this day, a day she was truly happy.
However, ten years later, Ayako the Umashi-no-Miya would cross the sea to the mainland, where she would enter the rear palace of the great empire of Konkoku—as a tribute.
