Chapter
94: 玉の誕生
Tama no tanjo
(The Birth of the Jewel)
Inuyasha carries Sango down into the cave they explored before. She explains that what they saw earlier were the mummified remains of many demons that formed together to defeat a single mortal. The person they tried to kill was a female priestess from hundreds of years ago. Her name was Midoriko and she was able to clense demon's souls. She and Miroku explain that everything is made up of four souls (Shikon) and that the balance of these souls determines how good or evil someone is. The demons needed to become more powerful to prevent Midoriko from destroying them, so they bound themselves to an evil human that lusted after her. Miroku realizes this is similar to how Naraku was created which surprises Sango. She continues that Midoriko fought for seven days and nights. Midoriko was killed, but before she died she merged her soul with the demon's and expelled the merged souls from her body, thus creating the Shikon Jewel. When Sango's grandfather was alive the jewel found it's way back to their village. He died retrieving it, and the jewel had become tained with evil. The jewel was entrusted to Kikyo who carried it to her death. Inuyasha realizes that the Jewel is causing events to repeat over and over, and that he must put a stop to it once and for all.
