When his wish had come true, there appeared a 朝日姫 Princess Asahi and said:
"Your wish will come true!". She led the lord to the river 小田川 Odagawa
and then disappeared.
Looking closer, there was a boat in the river with an old priest, pulling a net
where a small Kannon Statue was placed.
The Lord took the statue, had a temple built for it and prayed to it.

The villagers come together at 仙蔵院 the Temple Senzo-In to make a large rope serpent of straw and sand bales.
This rope is hung at the main hall and the head priest performs a rain ritual.
Then they carry the rope around, blowing a conch and beating drums
until they reach 上堰潟 the Uwaseki lagoon.
They throw the rope in the water and go home.
Now the large serpent seems to call the rain clouds and soon it begins to rain.
