Northern sea spirit of Ainu tradition, born of ocean foam with an enchanting voice that guides coastal waters.
In the traditions of the Ainu, the Indigenous people of Japan, these are spirits that dwell in the sea. They are said to possess graceful beauty and enchanting voices. Some bring misfortune by possessing humans, while others serve as protective guardian spirits. Their true form is also said to be nothing more than the foam upon the sea.
