They're enemies because Mokou hates Kaguya for blowing her dad off... or was it her brother. And Kaguya just goes along with it because she's bored or something like that. Atleast that's what I remember from reading CiLR.

I'm a fan of both Mokou and Kaguya, and I have a strong faith that Mokou will eventually find peace from being with Kaguya.
Their relationship has lots to think about for someone trying to be a doujin artist, like me. As they're among my favorite characters, I did lots of brainstorming for interesting ideas and I came up with the idea that Kaguya, being an immortal, is a perfect deontologist. The only person who can really be a deontologist without complaint. Lots of ideas going around here, I just want to be able to draw well. There's a doujinshi I've got planned about Mokou's future and it's going to make hearts punch themselves.

Going by Inaba of the Moon and Inaba of the Earth, Mokou has gotten over that vendetta a little, only now Kaguya and her servants have started stealing her food.

Well, there's several answers for this, and they can be right or wrong depending on what time period you ask. Initially, Mokou hated Kaguya for humiliating her father and dishonoring her family with an impossible request. At this time, Mokou wanted wanted revenge, and when she couldn't get it from Kaguya, she went for the next best thing- the emperor's present from Kaguya, which he ordered t destroy (though she didn't know it was the elixir of immortality until the very last moment). Several hundred years later, when she was alone and exiled for being immortal, Mokou may have hated her for bringing such an inhumane life upon her by driving her to get revenge with the elixir. Now that she can't even die, blamed Kaguya for making her drive herself into this predicament. At this point, she may or may not have gotten over about the impossible request itself. Several hundred years later, there she was in Gensokyo, and so close to where Kaguya lived, too! Killing time, evereyday! Skip another several hundred years. From what she said in Imperishable Night, she couldn't care less about Kaguya anymore. At heart she'll always detest the girl, but she generally avoids her, and she's irritated how Kaguya tirelessly keeps trying to kill her. She KNOWS the conflict is pointless by now, but because Kaguya keeps chasing her like a cat-and-mouse game, this irritates her even more. Of course, it's still just a game to Kaguya. But in retrospect, they have gotten along. Now, if you mean "gotten along" like the lesbian luv-luv, then Haha. Tough chance of that happening, maybe only if Kaguya is the last person on Earth.

Or it could be that Mokou's hatred was also made immortal.
