(Facing Sesshomaru and Inuyasha) Sesshomaru, what do you know of your sword? Do you have any idea how it was born? As I said, Tenseiga was nothing like it is now. It was in a different form, when I fought your father. The truth is, Tenseiga didn't actually exist at the time. (Inuyasha looks shocked) The sword I fought against was none other than Tetsusaiga!
(thinking) Is he saying that Tetsusaiga is the one that stole Meido Zangetsuha?
(chuckles) So, you didn't know, Sesshomaru? Well, let's see, how should I say this: Tenseiga was originally Tetsusai-
SILENCE!
Now, then: I presume the old man was unable to control Meido Zangetsuha after stealing it from me, it's rightful owner.
Wow. Is all that true, Myoga?
Yes, yes, yes. It is true that my Lord was pondering how to use this technique, once he'd acquired it.
That is why he cast it away from Tetsusaiga. And so, that unwanted technique, the one Tetsusaiga had no use for, was given to your Tenseiga instead.
(thinking) "Unwanted technique?!"
So, Tenseiga was cast off from Tetsusaiga?
If that's true, it would mean that the two were originally one sword!
(thinking) Why?! Why did Father do this?!
And, on top of that, if I'm not mistaken, the younger brother smells part human. It seems unthinkable. Why would the old man bequeath Tetsusaiga- his original sword- to a mere half-demon? (mockingly) Poor Sesshomaru; it looks like your father passed you by in favor of your younger brother!
