Seeing how the loss of immortality saddened Ch'ang-O, Houyi set out to find Hsi Wang Mu, the Goddess of immortality. She agreed to give him the elixir of immortality and warned him that there was just enough for himself and Ch'ang-O. Houyi returned home with the elixir, but was called away before he had a chance to take any or to tell Ch'ang-O what it was. Her curiosity got the better of her, and she drank the potion to see what it would do. Just as Houyi was returning home, Ch'ang-O started to float up to the heavens. Houyi tried to reach to her, but she had floated too far. She continued upwards until she landed on the moon, and there she stays. Her only companion is a jade rabbit, who works to make another immortality elixir for Houyi, so that they can be reunited.
Ch'ang-O's name is also seen as CHANG'E, CHANG-O, and HENG-O.
