If anybody here watches Samurai X, you might know what I'm talking about. I'm looking for the sheet music for the piece in the episode where Kenshin and Misao are travelling to Edo to fight Shishio, and on the way, they come across a man (Ichiro) and his brother (Eiji). Ichiro is near death and he begs Kenshin to look after Eiji. Kenshin agrees, Ichiro dies and Eiji wakes up. He then tells them that he and Ichiro were attacked by Shishio's men, under the command of the giant Senkaku, for attempting to leave Shingetsu Village, which was a territory Shishio controlled, and the Meiji Government was ignoring due to Shishio's influence. Kenshin then travels to Shingetsu on his own to avenge Ichiro for Eiji, while and Eiji and Misao secretly follow him, and it is in the town that all three of them see Eiji's parents, beaten, hacked, tortured and hanged in the town square, as recompense for their sons attempting to flee from Shingetsu, which was against the law.
The music I'm looking for is when at the end of the episode, when Eiji buries them himself, Kenshin and Saito have travelled to Edo by themselves, leaving Misao and Eiji at Shingetsu. The piece of music plays right at the end, when Kenshin and Saito approach Shishio's Edo stronghold, and Shishio's right-hand man, Sujuro confronts them at the gate. After talking to them, the music switches from a technotrack to a really delicate piano piece as the scene transfers from Kenshin, to Misao and Eiji paying respects at his parents' completed graves.

I don't know what the piece is called, but I have given all the details about when you hear it. You can also hear it in the very next episode, after Kenshin fights Senkaku, Shishio flees and Sujuro prepares to do battle with him. It is in the moment when they both sheath their swords and prepare to unleash their strongest battojitsu attack that the music plays.

I'm sorry this is so vague, but any help would be appreciated.

No, I'm afraid not. I just like the show. The only songs I know from SX are Departure and Sobakasu. If you post the music, I might be able to identify what it is I'm looking for.
