Chapter 59
For the first time in awhile, Kagome woke to find herself alone. Sesshoumaru was noticeably absent—not for the first time—and Bokusenou's face had disappeared, reverting back into a normal-looking tree. 'Maybe he was asleep?'
But it was the acknowledgement of Tamotsu's absence which caused her former anxiety to flare up and consume her thoughts.

And then…
'Oh! My clothes! I can finally wash them!'
Redirection successful.
