As time flew by, the dragons learned that with their mother in charge, a wolf pack could be very harmonious. Stress had dropped, even though some of Kumiko’s older siblings had left, Kumiko herself had a couple of litters as the pack grew. Seiryu was usually guarding the pack including Kumiko, as his hunting skills weren't always successful which left Seiyru to hunt for him. In return he would guard Kumiko whenever she was gone. Seiryu and Seiyru eventually chose to become mates as they felt strong connections for one another and not seeing each other as siblings. As they turned 15, Seiryu and Seiyru decided to leave for unknown reasons. They explained to the wolves that they had to go to the place called “Dragon Paradise.” When they left, Seiryu and Seiyru was worried of the world these wolves were facing in their future. Having seen how hard a wolf pack’s life can be, there was one thing they feared more than any predator, and that were the humans. They saw how animals were hunted as if it was nothing, just like they had heard of dragon slayers, they decided to attempt to isolate a huge part of the land away from these intelligent yet dangerous creatures. They went to their chosen land, and together they turned their bodies into stone, leaving a part of their soul behind on the planet. When Seiryu and his mate reached their new destination, they both took on a physical form again, calling back their true body but still let part of them be remained on the planet. It was only shortly after their departure that they realized they had left behind a far bigger power. The power is believed to have forced the land to break and separate from the mainland. It wasn’t long afterwards that Seiyru laid eggs, that she sent to the planet of her wolf pack. Seiryu's children, caused the entire island to change climate, and thrive greater than it could ever have before. The changes took many centuries to develop and form on the island of Delv Ihoo. While Seiryu is still alive, he remains away from the planet. His children remained on Delv Ihoo, respecting their mother and father but they never truly had a close bond to either of them as they were not raised by him or his mate. Seiryu was the one who send down the eggs of his mate locating these to certain parts of the island. Seiyru was the one who warned the packs of the arrival of the eggs. As wolf packs were given the tasks to take care of Seiryu's children, they did so allowing these dragons to grow until they no longer needed protection. Seiryu was a feared dragon, his power of Azure was an unknown element to other dragons, and it was said it was the strongest of all as it could melt down even the strongest natural materials in the world. Unlike Seiyru he was a lot more gentle and often avoided battles at all cost. Even as a child Seiryu would avoid trouble as he always stayed in the pack area. As the Azure Dragons promised to bless one wolf, it is actually Seiyru who blessed Ruuza and not Seiryu. As he blessed no wolf.
Personality
Seiryu was a gentle giant, he was really peaceful and avoided fights or arguments at all costs to keep peace. As a young dragon, he was confident and yet at the same time he wasn't. He was always walking around happy and playing with his wolf siblings but when threatened, he would easily hide and seek protection of those he trusted. When play fights took place he was known to not even fight back. He was not very adventurous, as he always stayed within the pack perimeter. It was eventually Seiyru that made him gain confidence, as she would play and support him, making him more confident. He began defending what was his and showed other wolves he was willing to fight back. Seiryu is very loyal and trustworthy as he is truly caring towards his wolf family but even more so to Seiyru. He is quite a shy dragon on the other hand, as he was never rebellious towards his wolf mother. As he grew older, he turned out to be really confident as he was also seen as a smart and wise dragon. Seiryu loved to learn and expand his knowledge about the world, the animals inhabiting it and anything else he could learn.
