Summary: Kikyou goes home
He bathed in the light. It warmed and soothed him even though he fought to retain his sorrow and anguish. The light was telling him that he need not cry for her anymore.
She was going to a better place. A place where she would no longer live with the pain and suffering that she had endured since she was untimely ripped from her rest.
She had never wanted to return. Having to live as one of the living dead. Using the souls of young girls merely to move her body. Filled with hate and thoughts of revenge.
All that was in the past. She was at peace at last. At the end she had finally become the person she had always wanted to be. She had reclaimed the humanity which had been stolen from her.
She was happy for the first time in her life because he had come for her. Although he had failed to protect her, she promised to watch over him.
And so as Kikyou's soul ascended , her light was emblazoned across the heavens for all to see. Inuyasha vowed that so long as he could draw a breath her light would never be extinguished.
