Kyuden no Kin or the Palace of Gold was created by Asahina Mifune in the ninth century. He wished to marry a Dragon samurai-ko named Mirumoto Tanoshiko, but she could not bear to leave the mountains of her homeland. Mifune built the palace surrounded by trickling streams and carved mahogany and jade. When she still would not come he made the walls covered with solid gold. She still would not come, so finally he made the finest artisans of the Empire etch lifelike mountains of the glass panes of all the windows. Now when Tanoshiko looked out of the windows she saw mountains and she was happy, and the two married.
