61—Father

"Just because you see humans that way, doesn't mean we don't share similar experiences," she explained. "Losing your father hurts no matter who you are."

Sesshomaru ignored her, seemingly uninterested.

"All I'm saying is," Kagome felt frustrated talking to this brick wall, "I wasn't trying to tarnish his memory. I'm sure he was a great demon. And my dad was a great man."

No response.

"Fine..."

She laid quietly.

Eventually her breathing became deep and even.

Sesshomaru became lost in thought, absorbed in her words.

Then he quietly admitted long after the fire had died,

"No other demon was greater."
