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.
