Sato's movements during this period is not documented, but from the fact that her daughter was born in 1186 when Yoshitsune was in hiding in the vicinity of Kyoto, it is presumed that she got pregnant during her stay in Kyoto and delivered the daughter secretly in somewhere around the capital.
この頃の郷の動向は不明だが、義経が京都の近辺に潜伏していた文治2年（1186年）に娘が誕生している事から、京都在中に懐妊し、都の近辺に身を隠して出産したものと推測される。
