Chapter 68: Good Omen

With a flick of her fan, the Western Lady beckoned for Kagome to follow. "Last night's moonrise was a most auspicious one," she announced smugly.

"In what way... erm... milady?"

"A pink moon, known as a maiden's moon. It is an excellent omen for those whose hearts long to make a good match."

"So youkai do care about something other than strength?"

Sesshoumaru's mother stopped and turned. "Are you asking if we can love?" Kagome nodded, and the demoness continued with a wistful expression. "Instinct drives us. Duty steers us. But yes, little ally; we are capable of great love."
