The Dragon of the Shadows in the Dark

"My dear Priest...when the eyes, the leg, the hand, and the body are one...the final dragon shall be revealed...cloaked in shadows and shrouded by the dark...the wings that descended down to the earth...to bring it's brothers to Hiryuu...shall rise from the ashes once more...following history's path from the shadows...the guardian of the Seiryuu, Hakuryuu, Ryokuryuu, and Ouryuu...the right hand of King Hiryuu himself...the wings that guard the dragon warriors Blue, Green, White and Yellow...the banished dragon shall be the savior in exile."
- Kagemi, the previous Kuroryuu to Ik-soo

The Kuroryuu - Black Dragon, often referred to as the Shadow Dragon, the Reaping Wings, and the Black Death. It is often portrayed as a bloodthirsty, unforgiving, and merciless being that is no longer human. However, this is far from the truth, never has there been a Kuroryuu who has killed for no reason. Never has there been one who harmed the innocent...even though there have only been 2 since the days of Hiryuu.
The previous Kuroryuu was blamed for the death of King Hiryuu as she was the one to be with him in his final moments, she was the one who had spilled blood - only because she was told by King Hiryuu himself to do so.
But no one had the will to listen, not to the previous Kuroryuu, not to her successor, and because of this in the writings of history the patient, compassionate, pacifistic, and most importantly INNOCENT Kuroryuu was placed into exile along with her successor.
Over the years, the once majestic and peaceful beast has become nothing more than a bedtime story that parents would use to get their children to behave themselves.
Those who speak of the mythological warriors of old, tell of the Kuroryuu being cunning, far too ambitious, and cold-blooded. They say that the Kuroryuu should never have existed in the first place. And the sad part?

They are right.

The Kuroryuu should never have existed.
