A few minutes after Sesshoumaru left, the little toad creature Jaken (I hate him!) walked in to the room. "Follow me" He said. Karana did as he said and he led her to a nicely furnished room and gave her instructions to change into a new clean kimono. As soon as Jaken left the room Karana changed into a kimono much like the ones she used to wear in the castle before Naraku attacked.

She stood in front of a mirror that was in the room and looked at herself. Her eyes started to sting as a few tears rolled down her cheeks, 'I'm not supposed to be here' She thought 'I should be with the rest of my family' . There was a knock on the door so she quickly wiped away her tears. "Come in" She said. It was Sesshoumaru. He smelled the salt from her tears but paid no heed.

"You may start tending Rin in the morning" He said coldly. "And dinner is served when you are ready.". Karana nodded indicating that she was. "Your dinner will be up momentarily" Sesshoumaru said leaving the room. A few minutes after her left a tray was brought up to Karana with food on it.

She took a writing quill and wrote an incantation that would keep humans out and placed it on her door. She then took the sharp steak knife that was on the tray. She lay down on the bed and slit her left wrist. She closed her eyes in pain but made no sound. She did the same thing on her right wrist. As she lay there bleeding she sang a song her mother had taught her.
