Legend from Shiga 滋賀県

Around 3 in the morning at the beginning of the month, a ship was heading to the lake. From the East came a fire ball and stopped right above the mast.
A little later a bit of wind came and the fire ball seemed to ride the wind and blew away.
Pondering about this happening, the men thought it must have been a group of spiders.

That night hi no tama 火の玉 a ball of fire was seen by many neighbours falling on the roof.
