Sealed by a priestess, 50 years ago (in the time of the world they are in) with an appearance exactly the same as Kagome, who was the priestess responsible for protecting a jewel called the jewel of the 4 souls.
And since Kagome is the reincarnation of this priestess, she brings with her from the “real” world the jewel, which is the desire of the Youkai. But the jewel ends up being broken and its fragments scattered everywhere, each fragment being capable of giving great power to whoever possesses it. So Kagome and InuYasha go on an adventure with the purpose of collecting all the fragments. So that they are not used by someone with bad intentions.
