Upon presenting the two children a bouquet of Carnations, they scampered away from her hearing and started conspiring whispers.
.
Amused, Kagome looked at the figure sitting across from her, "What do you suppose they're up to?"
.
Sesshoumaru amusedly stared behind her. A flower crown fell perfectly on her head.
.
Shippou and Rin cheered, "It's a crown for our megami-mama!"
.
Eyeing the pink crown which fitted her head, he couldn't help but agree with them. It was fitting after all. The flowers denote the creation of the gods, and she was the finest creation that they have ever thought to make.
Carnations are part of the dianthus genus, dianthus meaning "flower of the gods"
The origin of it's name may come from "coronation" because of its use in Greek ceremonial crowns, others propose that it's derived from from the Latin "carnis" (flesh) referring to the flower's original pinkish-hued color or "incarnacyon" (incarnation), referring to the incarnation of God-made flesh.
Pink carnations carry the greatest significance, beginning with the belief that they first appeared on earth from the Virgin Mary's tears – making them the symbol of a mother's undying love.
