Welcome to Gaia! ::

Shiba was off on a walk, as she loved to do on warm days like these. The sky was cloudy. "Looks like rain," she said happily.

Nearby is I, as i am hunting i hear a sound. I notice it is inari *i keep my distance as i evestiage your actions*

*I shyly follow you, after all being a raccoon i am very curious* *makes a raccoon noise at you* *stops behind you waiting for you to turn*

Vralsyxia awakened from his long sleep. Hidden within a deep cavern, in the face of a hillock within a lush untamed forest, his rest had gone unnoticed for the last couple centuries. His dreams were those of men and mortals. But there were other things, vaguer, less consolidated visions. He opened his eye lid slowly, watching the light periodically fade and grow again far off in the distance, at the mouth of his cave. He counted about 3 of these cycles. He eventually realized these were days, and forcing his stif muscles to move, he pushed himself up off the ground, dead scales falling to the floor, replaced underneath by fresh glimmering crimson plates. Harder then diamonds, and just as beautiful to look at. The grotto he had inhabited seemed to have shrank since 600 years ago. He stretched his wings, forcing the ache to subside by flexing the dormant muscles. He sniffed the air, moist with condensation because of the caves inherent coolness. He made his way through the narrow passage of the cave, making his muscles work the stiffness and age out of them. He was still quite young, but being in the same curled position for 6 centuries sets even concrete. He emerged into the sun, blinding him with its radiance. He shielded his eyes with his protective membrane until the accustomed themselves to the light. Feeling invigorated by the breath of crisp, fresh air, he flapped his wings, warming them up, then thrust himself upward with his legs and gave a mighty downward thrust with his wings, jettisoning him into the skies. The clear blue shone in contrast to the dank pitch black of his sleep. He piloted himself through the clouds, emerging glistening with droplets of water. He occupied himself with aerial acrobatics and after he had his fill of rampant indulgences, he slowed to a steady and leisurely glide high above the ground. He simply rode the current of the winds for quite sometime, and below he spotted something interesting. A procession of animals, three, each unaware of the one behind them. He enjoyed the affairs of mortals and delighted in intervening. For better of for worse, he was nonchalant about the outcome, it was the excitement they held for theyre short lives that he enjoyed. For now he circled high above, watching with keen eyes what was bound to happen...

Shiba was just in back of the racoon now, and she got ready to pounce.

Inari blinked. Her mind was screaming to run, but her body was frozen to the spot. She knew she should be respectful to this wolf, yet she ended up doing the exact opposite. " I have no time to mess around with you. now leave me alone." She glanced backward to make sure the others weren't still following and darted to the left. This only brought her deeper into the wolf's area and she soon realized this when she found herself surrounded by his pack. "Lovely, now I am so dead." she thought as she tried to find a way out of this.
