Kamashi-okara was the Fortune of Sorrow. A legend said the Fortune took the life of a young girl the night before her gempukku. Preparing her mind for the life of a samurai, she had taken a walk alone at night, during which she fell from the riverbank and sank into the Tearful River. The story hinted at the importance of keeping a youthful mind, and it was remembered during each Iris Festival. [1]
