They had a relationship with Kamimusubi in both 'Kojiki" and "Izumo no kuni fudoki," and it was written in the former that they were dispatched by Kamimusuhi no mikoto to engage in treating Okuninushi (chief god of Izumo in southern Honshu Island, Japan, and the central character in the important cycle of myths set in that region), and it was written in the latter that they were mikogami (the child god in a shrine where parent-child gods are enshrined) of Kamumusubi no mikoto.
『古事記』『出雲国風土記』の両者においてカミムスビと関係を持ち、前者では神産巣日之命に派遣されて大国主の治療に従事、後者では神魂命の御子神であると記されている。
