Kaguya resurrected the Dream Castle of the Pentacle Mirror near the shrine. She offered to give Kagura true freedom if she would free her from the Mirror.

Miroku and Hachiemon ventured to the shrine after hearing the tale of Kaguya from a villager. They met up with Sango, Kirara, and Kohaku at the cave. They reached the shrine and discovered that the Mirror of Life was gone.
