He looked down at the letter, disbelief turning swiftly into anger. He had always respected his father, far more than anyone else. How could his father do this to him? He started to crumple it up, when a shocked yell sounded out beside him and the letter was taken away. He turned, seeing Jaken smoothing out the letter carefully. "My lord! You must not ruin your fathers will! I know that you would rather not do this, but if you do not, you might cause another war between the western and eastern lands!" Sesshomaru shot him a dirty look, before thinking about what he should do. Suddenly turning and walking away as if he had come to a decision, Lord Sesshomaru took off swiftly, Jaken hurrying to catch up to him. Jaken tucked the letter in his pocket, wondering just why Lord Sesshomarus father had demanded this of him. He had never done anything without a good reason. Jaken wondered if Lord Sesshomaru would really do as his father had asked. It was a most peculiar request.
