You are a freakin' genius. This story kicks ass. I love it to death. You rock. Have you written anymore stories? If you have, I would love to read them. ^_^

wow that was, uh, hold on there's something in my eye *starts shedding tears perfusely* i loved it what more can i say. poor kikyo, i know you said not for kikyo lvers but she could have just died lol. anyways may i sugest a sequel in the modern times that would rock e-mail me if you do.

HA! This story was awesome cool. Gripping: that seems the best word for it. I had to sit here and read all of this or go insane. *Nod* Great writing. I loved it.

Hi again! I read up to chapter 19, but then I stopped becaused you created a SangoxInuyahsa pairing, something that just happened without any warning or plot development. Plus, Sango is a character that fits perfectly with Miroku, nobody else! But thats just me. Anyway, great story up to chapter 19. Ja ne!

Your story is one of the most beautiful pieces of Literature I have read. You are a wonderful writer. I'm also reading You Darkness. It to is a wonderful read however dark and grotesque it is. You are a truly gifted writer. One day you should collect all your stories and put them in a book. I would surely try to buy no matter how expensive. I hope you finish your story soon. Once again you are a truly gifted and wonderful writer. Ja Ne

Chapters 16 & 17 seem to be the same chapter posted twice.

Sometimes hard to read because of spelling errors..... LOTS of them. But, this is really good! I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Awesome story, and i loved the ironic ending, i think it was all very well done, and i agree that you ended at a good place. but maybe a sequel? a story of the children finding their power and prestige? I'd like to see them grow up some, and see what their adult lives would be like. once again i loved the story and the ending Good job!

I have enjoyed this fiction quite a bit. While some ofthe last chapters seemed a little strained, the first 3/4 of them moved quickly and drew the reader along. The stiff characterization of the outward face of Sess. was perfect, and the inner face of him was also really good. The author wove a good tale of the Jewel's secret workings with Kikyo, Inuyasha, and Naraku. It was believeable and would have melded well with Cannon. Just having Kagome being a weak pushover without the background the author wove in would have been a real letdown. But surprise, it worked wonderfully. IY's hookup with Sango was a little strained, but fun after all of the Sango/Miroku fics, it was a nice change.

All in all I would give this fic an 8 out of 10 or a B+ for enjoyability.

Wonderful story. The plot was fluid and intoxicating, and the characters fleshed out very well. I personally felt the Kikyo rape scene would have been better off left as merely suggestive rather than described even as much as it was, but that is merely a personal preferrence rather than being a sign of plot failure. You do have issues at times where words come out garbled thanks to some kind of an error in formatting, this especially seemed to occur during certain chapters in the earlier part of the story. As an example.. a reader would be reading along through this wonderful story of yours only to come across something like, "it cauheaaused to think about it again." The error in these cases seems to have been that two words got merged together and then parts of the merging repeated once or twice more.

Finally, I agree with you that this story ended with a wonderful closure point and to continue it to the point of the modern day events would have been a let down in fact.. but you missed one last line that should have been used at the very end of the epilogue chapter. "It seems history would know who truly was the unworthy one." As to me the epilogue is trying to show that the series name is pointing to Kikyo when the plot led people into at first believing it was referring to Kagome's self-perspective. That one line being added onto the end would have been the ultimate irony and the perfect closure to this story in my opinion.
