Inumittsu
*episode 6*

Over the next 3 days, two more priests come to the humble hermitage of the priestess Konpon. Not that Inuyasha knows this, but they are of progressively higher status within their order. Each time they find the still fiery priestess waiting for them, and unshaken in her determination. Eventually, after two days of silence, a procession of holy men enter the forest. In their midst, carried by four younger priests honored by their chance to serve, is a man whose age rivals Konpon’s own. As she informs Inuyasha as they watch the slow approach, this is the head priest of the largest temple in the region. For him to journey forth from his home is rare; more so as his age increases. Although she tells the boy that they should be honored by his visit; he is beginning to grasp her strange sense of sarcasm and he does not take her words literally. She makes sure they are not seen, and has them both sequestered within her home before the troop arrives. As the procession comes to a halt outside of the hut, one priest, a herald, steps forward and shouts, “The honorable and venerable high priest Chuuko has come to see the hermit known as Konpon. Allowing several minutes to pass, the priestess steps out of her home and addresses the herald, ignoring the high priest himself, “Ask the venerable, honorable high priest Chuuko if he will humble himself by sharing the hospitality of an old woman’s table.” As the herald begins to object, she cuts him off, “And tell him that if he will not, I will neither speak nor listen to him.” With that said, she turns her back on the assembly and returns to her hut.
