Kikyo was a powerful priestess intrusted with the jewel by the village who had found it. Kikyo had the power to purify the jewel and she protected it from all the youkai who tried to take it. She killed all but one, Inuyasha. She grew found of him and they soon fell in love. Inuyasha had told her that he wanted to use the jewel to become full human and stay with her. She brought it to him and he fataly struck her and stole the jewel. She then found him with the jewel and, with her last effort, pinned Inuyasha into a tree. Kikyo was then brought back from the dead by the evil witch Urasu. She now runs on the hate she has for Inuyasha who seems to have no idea about what she is talking when she asks him "Why did you betray me??" She now lingers on, trying to take Inuyasha to hell with her and feeds of young woman's souls to keep herself alive.
