Summary
Kagome has been living in the feudal era with Inuyasha for 6 months, and life has been peaceful. Inuyasha and Miroku are tracking a yōkai that was released from a seal by a landslide, and discover the yōkai was originally sealed away by Kikyō. The yōkai is called Ne no Kubi and is seeking the Shikon no Tama, not realizing it is already destroyed due to being sealed away for so long.
