Setsuna

Setsuna's History

Shortly after Setsuna and Towa were born in Kaede's village to Rin, Sesshōmaru took them away and left them near the base of the Sacred Tree in a forest to protect them from Zero, who would target them due to a prophecy of their grandfather stating it will be half-demons that would slay Kirinmaru, (since the Shikon Jewel had been disappeared granted a wish by her half-aunt Kagome Higurashi seven years prior after the battle with Naraku) with Jaken placing a protective barrier around the Sacred Tree to keep them safe from Zero. Setsuna and Towa lived together in the woods until they were 4 years old, when Towa got pulled into a time portal to the present after the two of them were separated during a forest fire caused by Homura under Zero's order, with her father unable to intervene lest Zero kill Towa and Setsuna herself. After the forest fire, Setsuna first met with her father's vassal Jaken, stating that he was glad that she's okay, he looked around about for her sister, and she told him that Towa has disappeared. Jaken put her within a barrier and went in search of help. After learning of the progression of the silver scale curse afflicting Rin, Jaken returned with a chrysalis of a Dream Butterfly to use on the infant to help save her mother. She was crying for the loss of her sister when he returned and placed the chrysalis on her, and guided by A-Un and Jaken she was taken to the Hanyō Hidden Village.

Shortly afterwards, Setsuna arrived at the Hanyō Hidden Village where she was cared for by a hanyo named Shiori for six years before heading off to the village she was born. Setsuna's stay in the village didn't last long and she soon returned to the hidden village. When an army of demons led by Gaga Gozen attacked the half-demon village, Setsuna fought to defend Shiori, who had lost her demon powers during a total solar eclipse. During the eclipse, Setsuna's daiyokai blood awoke for the first time when she was restrained by Gaga Gozen and broke loose, tearing her assailant to pieces and then attacking the monk Miroku, who managed to subdue her with assistance from Shiori. He later applied a seal to her to prevent future rampages.

Afterwards, Shiori convinces Setsuna to return to Kaede's village and upon her return, it was decided that she would train under Kohaku, who had become the leader of the newly formed yōkai taijiya.
