History
"Chikaheshi no Tama" (地返玉*)?, literally Bead of Returning to the Earth, is one of the ten sacred treasures mentioned in Sendai Kujihonki (先代旧事本紀*)?. Its function is to expel evil spirit back to the netherworld. The sacred treasure which actually revives the deceased is "Makarukaheshi no Tama" (死返玉*)? or "Bead of Returning the Dead."
"Michigaeshi no Tama" (道返玉*)?, literally Bead of Returning to the Path, is likely an original invention by Atlus based on the two aforementioned treasures.
