( can't seem to insert a picture of Menkaura, iPad keeps fighting me XD sorry Kira! )
Ancient bones ached. "getting too old for this" he grunted to himself as he elongated his body, stretching his muscles out.
Menkaura had been in hibernation again. Intense golden eyes surveyed the land, he was far away from the kitsusagi home base, and he was covered in blood. Gold eyes went wide in shock, as he looked down at himself, covered in the sticky life fluid. He quickly looked himself over, searching for the source of the blood. Relief, he was un-harmed, then panic. Who had the blood come from? What horrible monstrosity had taken place so close to him as he slept? He searched, frantically around for the wounded or worse..dead. Nothing. Nobody. He was completely alone on the mountain side in which he was sleeping. His heart rate slowed to a more reasonable rhythm.
"what strange things happen in this land" he said softly to himself as he picked a path down the mountain side, to go clean himself off at the lake. Even for a dragon breed, he was large for his size, and ancient. Over a millennia in age, around the time of evolution, he watched as humans and kitsusagi alike evolved.
Nobody knows where exactly he came from, or how he came upon the earth, even he himself has forgotten his origins. He has been all over the earth, watched it all begin. Religion, humanity, cruelty, massacre in the name of peace. He'd seen it all. But even after all this time, he still took some enjoyment from watching it all continue. "so much more to be seen...so much more to watch" he found the lake, and flopped down next to the water and dangled a massive paw in. He wasn't in a hurry to clean off, his mind had already wandered away from cleanliness.
