Sotoori hime

Princess Sotoorihime as depicted by Kikuchi Yōsai in Zenken Kojitsu. aka is a woman described as "exquisitely beautiful" in the Kojiki. While her true identity is unknown, she is said to have been either a concubine or daughter of Emperor Ingyō. Sotoorihime is also regarded as one of the "Waka Sanjin" (the Three gods of waka poem). She is jointly enshrined with Wakahiru-me and Empress Jingū at Tamatsushima-jinja Shrine.

Concubine One of Princess Sotoorihime's possible identities is said to be that of Emperor Ingyō's concubine "Otohime" ("youngest princess"). When the Emperor summoned her, she initially refused to comply as she was mindful of her older sister's feelings. She eventually relented but was kept in a separate residence due to the jealousy of Ingyō's wife. Two songs sung by Otohime (aka Sotohori) during her lifetime are recorded by the Nihon Shoki which describe her feelings towards Ingyō:

This is the nightMy husband will come. the little crab-The spider's actionTo-night is manifest — Sotohori Iratsume (419 AD) title= — Nihon Shoki According to the Kojiki, Emperor Ingyō's first son Kinashi had an incestuous relationship with his sister Ōiratsume. Due to the taboo involved, Kinashi was betrayed by his retainers and shunned upon by society. As Imperial ministers favored his younger brother , Kinashi chose to engage him in battle. The 'war" ended with Kinashi's defeat and he was exiled to Iyo by Anaho, who later became Emperor Ankō. Ōiratsume followed her lover Kinashi to Iyo afterwards and the two committed suicide together.

The Nihon Shoki on the other hand states that Karu no Ōiratsume was the one who was banished by her father Emperor Ingyō. Sholar William George Aston expresses doubt in his translated notes that a princess would be banished. His reasoning is; "Historically women have always been more lightly punished than men for the same offense, and the particular character of the fault in this case makes such a discrimination all the more reasonable".
