i need more please update! and i cant wait i need to know whats going to happen next(:

How unexpected!  Not many times do you see Sango brought into the bigger plot.  I like where this is going!  You have really gone outside of what I seen in fanfics I've read!  I'm just so fascinated by what's going on here.  heh  Although, I do hope that Shippou is ok.  That would make for many sad faces. =\

I appreciate that Kagome is having inner turmoil of her new (yet old) self.  It gives you the answers to 'what ifs' and gives it believable stages of growth.  I also like that Sesshomaru is the one to assist her, even if he's confused himself.  I mean, he didn't teach himself how to be.  He just always, was. 

Your imagery is beautiful, like usual.

Awesome.  U rock.

That was awesome!!  There is more to this 'Eldest'!  Most definitely.  The pace of this was fast but worked.  It got the doubts out of Sesshomaru and dare I say...got him into Kagome.  (Oh yeah I wrote that)

The whole scene was just perfect for his animalistic nature.  It's completely believable.  I lover her change, because it didn't come instantly.  Bits of it were hanging in the air sort to speak.  Like the fight between them was the catalyst. 

And the end....HOTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!! 

R u serious?!! I was in my monitor by the end of this chapter.  U hear me? IN my monitor.  

loved it ....  nothin more to say .... except, go Fluffy-sama!

And that was sheer evil!! lol  But I like your style.  Plus I'm still behind on chapters so no waitin for me! 

Thank you for clarifying the 'invisible' servants.  I did at first belived invisible in the physical sense, and am glad I wasn't mistaken. 

This is heating up at a good pace.  I mean, for her to be out for so long, much pondering had occured on his part.  Given that much time alone with his thoughts must have been a slight torture.  Her reality has just been seriously altered.  I like this concept a lot.  Maybe b/c I haven't read as many fics as others, but I've never seen this plot before and I like the direction you're taking with it. 

Awesome

Oooooh!  Early hints of a intriguing plot!  Oh yea.

I also adore stories of Sessomaru acting so 'beastly'.  It reminds you of his true nature. 

I rrrrrrrrreally like this.  Your imagery is blowing my mind in some areas.  And I'm only at the first chapter!!  Woo hoo!!

heh

~~Oh Goody! :D I was delighted to see you updated! Something tells me though that Sesshomaru isn't going to be all that delighted about that kiss though, ne?

Yay update!

This story just keeps getting better and better! I'm so happy that you allowed things to get patched up with Kouga and that there is no bad blood between them! I have always liked Kouga, and it is so sad when writers make him as the bad guy, when all he has is this cute arrogant way but I think is endearing!

I am itsy bitsy upset that Kagome won't admit her love for Sesshomaru, even he got to recognize it but she is being stubborn! I know that you must have something on your sleeve, but meanwhile I hate to see Sessh knowing what he feels, but not being told that he is loved!

Great chapter! Loved it, so please update soon again! -FG

Awwww Kouga *did* deserve that one kiss. :) I hope Sesshomaru doesn't take it the wrong way though! I would think he's gonna know it happened. >.< 
Thanks for the update! :) 

Sesshoumaru is like a puzzle. Great chapter!

Wow. This is grade A novel material, if you decided to change some of the names I'm sure you could publish this great work.

I want to commend you for not leaving side stories for too long. (I'm not sure if 'side stories' is the right term, but it's the only term I can think of at the moment) As soon as I was wondering "what happened to Eldest?" or "where the crap did Kasuka go?" you filled me in and impressed me.

My favorite part, to this point, would have to be Shippou and Rin playing 'hunt' in the halls.

Wonderful stuff, I can't wait for the continuation. Good luck.

I just sat and read through your entire story in one sitting and I must say, it is amazing. The imagery in this story is far beyond what I normally find in a fanfiction and it has enthralled me. I find myself waiting, not so patiently, for the next installment. I am very eager to see where your story will progress to. Keep up the wonderful work.

Uh-oh ..... The most vulnerable - She better not be talking about Rin (or Shippo), 'cause if she is - Hell hath no fury like Sessh and Kags, pissed. And I LOVED the bit of lightheartedness from Sesshomaru and Kagome near the end of the chapp, a story can't be all angst and suspense all the time ;) ...... And boy, is Kagome powerfull, Kasuka will have her hands full way past overflowing. 

Though, one thing has bugged me for some time since I read that part, is that dream Kagome had of Kasuka a premonition or something. If it is...  *shudder*

And, on a lighter note ..... Just how closely was Kinawai wrapped around that feamale? Were the in *caugh*the-most*caugh* intimate embrace? Cause if they were, then youkai society is really lax about some public displays *wink-wink, nudge-nudge*

Can't wait for more XD

I really don't know what to say but I hate not to review.  The problem is that I don't have the words to describe just how wonderfully fantastic this story is.  So, I will just say that your recent update was awesome as always and I will be awaiting your next on pins and needles.

Well, the chapter was awesome, as always. ;) I really enjoyed the Eldest twist, and I have a sneeking suspicion that the daughter that killed the other daughter was Kasuka.

Though there was one part that threw me for a loop:
  The mate of my sister was the elder brother; the mate of my sister was the Dragonlord, the one that is now named the Rebel Emperor. And when his rebellion was too much, and not enough, and he was slain ................................................
 I went there, and my son with me, and my daughters – my sister too, and her mate, my brothers and their sons – our people, all our people,

That was kind of contradictory. Did you mean to write that on purpouse? I spent a good 15 minutes trying to figure it out, before finally giving up. And sooo sorry for bothering you with this, especially since I haven't reviewed for a while (but I have a suspicion that you're not lonely) and haven't read this since the last I reviewed (I wanted the chapters to pile up and then read them all in one fell swoop)... heh heh ...*looks all sheepish*

~lily

Ha! Sesshomaru freaked out? Since he started dancing in this chapter (the scene was described beautifully, my dear), I suppose anything is possible.

Yay for another chapter! Kagome is Sesshomaru's now. Kouga is still steadfst in his (undead?) loyalty, Kasuka is plotting, and the story is moving along! I am so excited to see Sesshomaru and Kagome grow closer together. He needs to learn what love means, or I'll have to go hit him over the head with a frying pan.

Thank you for not keeping Kouga dead! :hugs: He is a fool, Often a blind fool, but ever a loyal fool. Though that often is a matter of much pain to me when reading a non-Kouga-centered fanfiction it is also part of why his character is so dear and beloved to me. Again, thank you. You managed a wonderful way of him dying for the challenge and yet survivingin a fashion and I am grateful.

The imagery of the shadow and light inu was simply amazing! I loved the pairing of purple and gold. My mind's eye drew added note in the way you used complimentary colors in your verbal painting.

So.... when do we get to thwap Kasuka? oor a suppose more appropriately, when do we get to see Someone (hopefully Kagome?) thwap kasuka? I look forward to that beat down almost every time she enters the stage.

Thanks for writing!

Omgsh! You updated! *is sooo happy* Yessss! I have been MISSING reading this! Like, you have no idea. Your story is one of the best I've ever read, and that's saying a lot because I have read a lottttttt of fanfiction.

Eagerly awaiting your next update!
