This disclaimer applies for the entirety of this story: I do not own any characters of Inuyasha. All original characters are my own.

This is my first fanfiction. I have written several original works, thousands of poems, and dabbled in songs. I have been reading fanfiction for the longest time, as my favorite list will show you, and finally decided it was my turn to try and charm the masses. I love constructive criticism, but flames will be responded to with my cynical wit. You have been warned. Enjoy!

Prologue

Long ago, when the Earth was still young, creatures of legend walked the Land. In the East, Demons were fierce and powerful, and ruled for millennium in peace. However, as will always happen, war struck with its merciless hand. Clan fought against clan, and many were lost. For three centuries battles were fought, and all the while the Humans who were so beneath their notice flourished and populated the Lands in their absence. When wise Demons chose to end their warring, the ancient race found that their squabbles might have caused more harm than originally anticipated: the Humans had grown strong and demanding. The Demons were greatly reduced in number, but still much stronger than the Humans. Yet another war occurred, shorter and bloodier than the first. The Humans were once again subjugated, but anger and lust for power hid in their hearts.

Here is a tale of how one demon, a TaiYoukai, chose to try and end the violence between the races.
