A young woman unknowingly ate mermaid meat brought home by a fisherman, granting her immortality, and after experiencing the loneliness of watching her loved ones age and die one by one, she became a nun and traveled throughout the country. After living for an unimaginable eight hundred years, she returned to her hometown and ended her life beneath a camellia tree, making this a representative Japanese legend that portrays the preciousness of human mortality and the sorrow of eternal youth.
