No New Posts Mount Hakurei

Mount Hakurei is a mountain that used to be home of a holy monk. A barrier had protected the mountain until Naraku had attempted to use it as his body. It had been destroyed by InuYasha and his friends along with the help of Naraku. By some spiritual powers the mountain had been rebuilt but there is still a barrier around it. Only those with a pure heart and human blood can cross the barrier without harm. If a demon tried to get past it then the mountain would purify the demon and the demon would turn into a human.

No New Posts Kouga's Territory

In a small mountain range you will find a territory that belongs to the wolf demon Kouga. Other demons wonder around here but most of them do not live long enough. This was before Kouga's comrades where killed by Kagura. Ever since the cave beside of the waterfall which, Kouga had lived in, is now empty because he is still searching for Naraku and trying to win the heart of Kagome. The wolves that Kouga controled still look over the lands but some of them stay with Kouga.

No New Posts Hikari Hot Springs

About ten miles from the Slayer's Village you will find the Hikari Hot Spring's. This hot spring is hidden by a small mountain range and a very thick forest. Since the hot spring is hidden not many travelers come to visit it but those that do usually try to stay as long as they can. The pools of hot water are not so deep that you have to swim in them and the water is not scolding hot either. It is just right enough for you to just sit in and relax.

No New Posts Totousai's Layer

Out in the middle of no where you will find a flat peice of land where there are small steam gysers, no trees, a river of lava, along with the bones of a demon. Inside these bones you will find the great sword smith Totousai. Very few come here and this is not because of the location but because Totousai doenst make his weapons just for anyone. He usually only makes them for himself and InuYasha. Usually Myoga can be found here as well if you are looking for him.

No New Posts Jakunen Crater

Miles away from Totousai's Layer you will find a huge crater in the ground. There are trees all around it until you get about seven feet from it. This is known as the Jakunen Crater. It was said that InuYasha's father had battled Ryukotsusei, the great dragon demon. InuYasha's father had pinned Ryukotsusei to a tree where InuYasha had to free the great dragon demon and defeat him. This was said to make the crater even deeper to the point that it is almost a hole in the ground.

After you come to her she will devour your human soul and you will never be seen again.

No New Posts Tayou Village

If you managed to get out of the Fuzen Forest you will find yourself at a prosperous village. Many people travel to this village but the poor would not survive here. Everything is expensive but the items are very trust worthy. They have two huts that are reserved only for the guests to stay in so if you are traveling then you might want to check those two huts out. You can stay there for free of charge but you have to buy something from one of their stores.

No New Posts Kaede's Village

When you first get into the Eastern Lands you will find a pretty good sized village that has a shrine on top of a hill. There is something special about this shrine, it was once the place in which the Shikon Jewel was guarded by the preistess Kikyou. Because of the deception of Naraku Kikyou was killed and burried at this shrine. Now the person that looks after the shirne is Kikyou's little sister, Kaede. She takes care of the travlers that pass through and also InuYasha and his friends. She is also the person who is in charge of the village.

No New Posts Forest of InuYasha

About a mile from Kaede's Village you will find a forest that was named after InuYasha. This is because he was pinned up to the tree in this forest and it is probably the place that he lived while trying to take the Shikon Jewel from Kikyou when she was alive. In this forest you will find a clearing except for one tree, the tree that InuYasha was pinned to. In this clearing you will find the Bone Eaters well. This is the well that lets Kagome and InuYasha pass through the two era's.

No New Posts Onigumo's Cave

As you come out of the Forest of InuYasha you will find a grassy clearing where on the side of a hill is a cave. Everyday before Naraku came to be the preistess Kikyou came and cared for a wounded bandit by the name of Onigumo. He had fallen in love with Kikyou but due to his injuries he was unable to move so he called the demons to come and feast on his flesh so that way he could have a body so he could have Kikyou but the demons took total control and things did not go as he planned. If you go in the cave you will see a burn print where Onigumo once layed before he became Naraku.

No New Posts Hijeri Meadow

After you get past Onigumo's cave you will find not a forest but a meadow. The Hijeri Meadow to be exact. It is a large meadow that is always quiet and peaceful. In the spring and summer flowers bloom and they drift off in the wind. In the winter the snow makes it look even more beautiful. It is said that the soul of a gardener lives here and will not allow violence or loud noise in her garden. If you try to do either one of these she will get angry and no one has lived to tell what happens next.

Once you make it out of the meadow you will find another flat peice of land that is on a clearing except this is the Amaya River. It is always cold no matter what season it is. It is pretty deep and full of water type wild life. On the other side of the river you will see a dark aura and in the far distance a castle. This river is the border of the Eastern and Western lands. Most of those travlers that come to this river usually stay to the Eastern side of it just to be safe.

The Western Lands [Lord Sesshomaru]

No New Posts Sesshoumaru's Castle

A dark forboding aura surrounds this castle and many fear to even come miles around it. It is a very large castle that is pretty fit for the ruler of it. The great dog demon Sesshoumaru lives here. Most of the time he is not here because he is either out looking for Naraku of out trying to get InuYasha's sword. He still has some guards surrounding the castle so don't think just because Sesshoumaru is not there that you can get in and life to tell the tale afterwards...

More recently the castle seems to have lessened in its intimidation, a less dark place. Greenery has suddenly appeared, lively and welcoming. Even so, the knowledge of who lives here, and the viciousness of the gaurds keeps the intimidation alive.

No New Posts Hejera Lands

For about twenty miles you will see nothing except for the image of Sesshoumaru's castle. That is until you reach the Hejera lands. Because it is even close to Sesshoumaru's castle it is always dark here but it is even worse during the night. This land has a very dense forest and only around the borders are there trees that are alive. The rest are dead. Many demons live here and many humans are smart and do not come in here alone for the fear of their lives. Those that are stupid enough to go alone usualy get killed by the many vicious demons that live here.

On the border of the Hejera Lands you will walk for about five miles and find yourself and one of the smallest villages around. This is the Moriko Village. It is a poor village and they do not have much food but they have enough to sell to the travlers that pass through. Often they go hunting in the Sakuru Forest but the only thing in there is small vermin like rabbits. They all are weary of strangers but they do have one hut that they will let the travelers rent but it will not be cheap.

As you come out of the Moriko Village and before you get to the Sakuru Forest you will find the Kilemijaro Valley. It is a small valley where a river runs through, well its not really a river but a large creek. At the end of the river at the border of the Sakuru Forest you will find a small but peaceful waterfall. Many smaller animals and demons call this place home but during the night you might want to be careful because that is when the bigger demons go hunting for food.

After you have passed through the Kilemijaro Valley you will find the very peacefull Sakuru Forest. It is deep in the Western Lands and mostly small vermin and demons live here. It is always a peaceful place and hardly anything goes on bad here except for the villagers from the Moriko village come to hunt here because there is no where else for them to do that in. It is said that if you travel far enough down in the forest you will find a cave where the kitsune, also known as fox demons live.
