A master hunter goes to the mountain, where he has a dream of a frog eating a worm, and then being eaten by a snake. An Ainu village is attacked, and an old woman and her grandson Tonkuru escape into the forest where they get separated. A girl named Yayoi crosses the mountains every day to go to work, and each day she would talk to a tree.
He never forgot the stories about the gods
Tonkuru no olvidó la historia 
del dios de la montaña y del río
Pero él nunca olvidó la historia 
del dios de la montaña y del río
Ele nunca esqueceu as histórias sobre os deuses
