I wonder&mdash;is it necessarily the only conclusion that Ashi disappeared because of a time travel paradox side-effect? I actually wondered if she died more simply because Aku was a part of her life force. She felt Aku leaving her after Aku died, but there was a delay before she finally died, and perhaps the moment she appeared was simply the moment when her life force finally gave out. In this sense, her comment, "Without Aku... I would have never... existed." could still support either interpretation. Without Aku being part of her life force, her own life was drastically shortened, because with the way she was conceived and born, she could never have existed (or continued to exist) without Aku's continued existence keeping her alive.
