Susanoo married Kushinadahime in Izumo after slaying Yamata no Orochi. Their children include Yashimajinumi, ancestor of Okuninushi, and Suseri-hime.
⚠ The Kojiki names only Yashimajinumi as the child of Susanoo and Kushinadahime; Suseri-hime is called Susanoo's daughter in the Okuninushi narrative without naming her mother.
Suseri-hime fell in love with Okuninushi at first sight when he descended to Ne-no-Kuni. She helped him survive Susanoo's deadly trials, and the two eloped together while Susanoo slept.
Suseri-hime secretly aided Okuninushi through Susanoo's deadly trials in Ne-no-Kuni — giving him scarves to repel snakes and centipedes, and guiding his escape with Susanoo's bow, sword, and koto.
