Prologue: The Old Witch

  Since the death of Homura, peace returned to the kingdom of Sesshoumaru. Things were going well, because the youkai further expanded the territory and won even more power. However, the youkai prince was not happy; wanted a companion with whom to share the government of the land and the prestige of being one step closer to mastering all lands east and north.
 Even going back to being feared by enemies, everyone knew he was again cold and cruel because of the death of his wife. Sesshoumaru knew that everyone knew the reason of his strength, but he did not care, after all, what harm could cause the Kiara if she was no longer alive? None. Well, at least that's what he thought, but not quite.

 In a typical spring morning, the youkai decides to review the cold body of the priestess Kiara. The sakura flowers were more beautiful and that year he decided to take that a flower to adorn the hair of the girl, who when alive loved to spend the morning admiring the trees flourish and come to the beauty and delicacy of the last flower blossom, which was always the most beautiful of all, this Sesshoumaru knew very well and because of that, the last picked sakura flower that bloomed.
 Approaching the crystal casket saw the arrival of an elderly woman. Thinking it is a visit to thank for some miracle, he remained calm. But when the woman approached, he smelled of herbs southern and soon discovered it was the old witch Kitsukami, known for stealing the bodies of Priestesses most powerful and beautiful after death to make potions for their own benefit. Sesshoumaru did not wait and took out the Bakusaiga for an attack, when the witch was revealed and declared peace.
- I just came to evaluate her body to see if it can be useful to me, Lord Sesshomaru, do not get excited.
- I know your fame, Kitsukami. Be brief and be aware that even if Kiara is useful to you I will not let you take her body away.

 The witch grabbed her left wrist Priestess to smell the blood of her, the one who betray the cause of death of Kiara. Shortly after, the old witch dropped her wrist and said with disgust:
- This is horrible! A priestess with many powers and so beautiful youkai killed by poison? It is a complete waste! Must be your poison, right? So what are you guilty for ruining a priestess like this.
- What do you mean by youkai killed by poison?
- Each child was that you had concentrated a percentage of your poison in her body, a small amount, it would not hurt, but you crossed the line and her body did not resist and was what caused her death. If I use for a potion will not do anything, so calm down, I'm not interested in it anymore.

 Sesshoumaru just wanted to know from the poison, which was the only thing that came into his mind. Before the witch left, he decided to make the decisive question:
- But she can relive yet again?

- Probably yes, since death was not natural, but I do not think she will live long after living two years or maybe three.
