Nukata's beauty and skill impressed Prince Naka-no-Ooe so much that he offered Prince Ooama his daughter's hand in exchange for Nukata. Despite Prince Ooama's strong affection for Nukata, he put his loyalty to his brother first and decided to let her go. This pivotal decision sparked the story of Tenjou no Niji, where Prince Ooama's bride, Uno-Sarara-no-Himemiko, stood by his side in securing the throne and eventually became Empress Jitou.
