Chapter 7:
"Kiriaku are you sure you want them here?" Kana asked. Kiriaku sighed. They had been going on like this for about a hour and Kiriaku was already desperate to get away from there conversation, "Your brothers are only going to cause trouble here. You shouldn't have brought them."
"I only brought them for a small amount of time… only until Sesshomaru's wounds are healed." Kiriaku sighed. Kana had always been paranoid but she was acting even more so then she usually did. Mostlikely it was because she had never liked it when Kiriaku had gone off and brought an outsider into Navolia. There was much too much to think about right now though so she understood when Kiriaku said, "Kana, I'm going to go out and check on them." and left.
When Kiriaku went out to where the others were resting he noticed that they had separated into groups. But just thin Inuyasha stood up quickly, "What's going on Kiriaku?" Inuyasha asked, "What did your sister have to say?"
Kiriaku sighed, "She's fine with you staying here but you will have to keep out of sight, they don't particularly want any outsiders in here so it isn't good that this is going on. Make sure that you aren't seen." Then Kiriaku thought of an idea, "I'm going to go out for awhile." he said quickly. Then when Inuyasha gave him a strange look he said, "I have a family too Inuyasha. And all of them live here. They haven't seen me for awhile."
Inuyasha nodded and I excited the hut. In reality, the person I was talking about would never see me again, or hear me either. It was strange to think that it might be like that but it was most definatly true. My mother, her name was Morada, had fallen in love with a non-navol and so she was suffering the conciquinces of her actions. That was what she got afterall but that didn't mean that I was happy about it. That was why I was trying so hard to protect Kana from the same fate.
The house that I was visiting was almost on the edge of Navolia and it was only mentioned or visited when someone wanted to prove that it was bad to be with other species. Morada was a name that was dreaded and feared throughout all of Navolia because it was the name of the woman who went crazy because she loved a demon. not only that but the child survived the attack on Morada and lived! That always had drawn people's attention to him so he had to be especially careful when he went around. He had to make sure that no one knew he had brought almost ten non-navols into Navolia. That was a crime punishable by death... and any death inflicted by the Grudge was bad as it was.
Of course, the Grudge kept peace in Navolia so it was revered and respected with all delight for it's teachings but it was a little hard when it came to punishment. no one really knew what or who the Grudge was but it often would start new laws about things. Only the high counsilmen knew about what the Grudge looked like and where it was from. That was all it was.
There was always bound to be a few strange cases though where a counsilmen was tried for making his own laws so they didn't know really what the grudge was either, but the important thing was that the Grudge existed. Of course, Kiriaku didn't have much respect for the Grudge. It was natural for him, the grudge had drove his mother into literal insainity.
Finally, Kiriaku reached the house. The land around it was barren and desolate with only a shabby shck in the middle of it. Kiriaku stepped up to the door quickly and knew that he would hear the screaming. He did and sighing her opened the door and went inside.
