The story of "Yamato-Takeru"

I want to tell the story of Yamato-Takeru.

He was the crown prince who was written about in "koziki" , the first Japanese history book , as Japanese myth.

Yamato-takeru was born as second son of the Emperor called tyuai .

Takeru had a bad brother who hated his father and robbed his father's wife!!

One day the Emperor asked Takeru to persuade his brother and he tried to talk to his brother but couldn't succeed.

Finally Takeru killed his brother.

His father was so angry to hear this bad news then he decided to make Takeru go away and fight the enemies.

Takeru left his hometown and had fought many times all parts of Japan.

He was too tired to return to his hometown.

when he was in Nobono , the country near his hometown , unfortunately he died.

Many Japanese have heard this tragic story.
