-Ups and Downs-

Nobuharu, the strange wizard that pleasantly or unpleasantly plagued the lives within the boundaries of his once sire’s kingdom, has always been a narcissistic being that had a devious side for the chaos and a ravenous appetite of the intimate pleasures. Since the strange circumstances involving his supposed death, the lands have been somewhat less chaotic, but the deep wisdom from the fellow was forever lost. He was once human, but the details surrounding his immortality were classified information that only the wizard knew and no one else. Anyone trying to divulge such valuable information was immediately hanged, drawn and quartered on the penalty of high treason against the Inu no Taisho. Some questioned, but answers were elusive. Not even Sesshomaru knew nor did he particularly care. Maybe it was that fact that drew the wizard to bestowing his sprouts of wisdom on the young lord, but he didn’t make it easy however. If the wizard was any other being, he would have been melted in a pile of goo. Many times Nobuharu witnessed the sheer crumbling of the wall surrounding Sesshomaru’s emotions, and the fiery inferno that lashed out formidably at anything, leaving everything in a charred mess of wilted composures and broken hearts.

It can be easily assumed that they were friends in a loose sense. Toleration was the key ingredient behind their abnormal familiarity, mostly because Nobuharu was still alive to this day and Sesshomaru haven’t nearly changed as much since centuries ago.

The testaments of the word friends were no longer applicable in the current situation.
