Shesha

Shesha was a creature of the Ivory Kingdoms, a primal being of creation, a massive entity floating through the Heavens bearing on its back the sleeping form of the god Vishnu. The Shesha have many cobra-like heads, and held all of the Heavens in its hoods. Where it traveled all of creation sang the glory of Vishnu. Asako Hiirono found a connection of this creature with the Rokugani myth of Yamato no Orochi.
