 | | Continuing to flee from his cousins' armies after attacking Kyoto, burning the Hōjūjiden, and kidnapping Emperor Go-Shirakawa, Minamoto no Yoshinaka made his final stand at Awazu. |
 | | He had met up with his companion and foster brother Imai Kanehira at Seta, along the way, and was also joined in battle by his wife, Tomoe Gozen. |
 | | However, in the end, all three met their ends; Yoshinaka was struck dead by an arrow when his horse became mired in a paddy field, and Imai committed suicide, leaping off his horse while holding his sword in his mouth. |
