The Myth
Muteikai Daiinjo-o, the Bottomless Sea Great Yin Queen, is a demon queen of the demon world. She has a red face, blue lips, reddish-black hair resembling a palm tree, and a tall, thin body approximately seven feet in height.
She is one of the demon kings mentioned in Memorandum of Other Worlds. She appears after the first demon king, the Great Creator Queen.
Muteikai Daiinjo-o is also known as Hiesto. According to the hermit Kawatan, who was the teacher of the author, she possesses roughly one hundred times the power of an ordinary god. Her power is said to be comparable to that of the Great Creator Queen.
