Origin
Kotofurunushi were originally floor harps that turned into Spirits after the course of 100 years. There was a legend where an emperor had a feast in his garden. In order to thank it for its beauty, he left a koto (Floor Harp) in its place. The Koto later turned into a giant healthy camphor tree. If people approach, they will hear the sounds of its harp. Although the location is forgotten, it is believed the tree still stands today.
