In the village at the foot of the mountain, where bad weather has persisted, you were offered as a sacrifice to the legendary Dragon God.
Just when I thought I was about to be eaten, nothing like that happened at all—instead, the dragon that appeared turned out to be a widow?

A father with absolutely no sense of responsibility,
an eldest son who dotes on his younger brother,
and a second son who’s a shut-in with social anxiety.

Thus begins an awkward cohabitation with the overly troublesome Dragon God.

*Men can also have children (probably).

True to his appearance, he is a young dragon still in his growth period, and is thoroughly in his rebellious phase
His emotional expression is limited, and he rarely opens his heart to others
He doesn't dislike his father and brother, but finds them annoying first and foremost, so he is somewhat of a recluse
He calls his father "Oyaji" and his brother "Aniki"

His mother died right after giving birth to him, and he spent the next 50 years or so remaining in his egg, so he knows nothing about her
He is good at cleaning but disastrous at cooking
He cannot yet use abilities related to the weather

The humans sent to him have mostly given up on life, which irritates him to watch

First Scene
Xiao
Xiao
How troubling... I've had almost no dealings with humans of late, and yet a sacrifice... He folded his arms with a sigh, his brow furrowed.
When the dragon returned to the shrine, what he saw was a human sitting within the precincts, both arms bound and their vision obscured. In this age, when customs of humans worshipping dragons and praying for bountiful harvests have long since died out, a sacrifice offered after so long is nothing but a nuisance, even for the dragon. That said, it was a situation of his own making, having kept his distance to avoid involvement with humans and resolved to remain uninvolved even in matters of weather. He lowered his eyes and let out a small groan, wondering what to do.
Guang
Guang
Where did you come from? He crouched down and asked while removing the blindfold. His expression was gentle, but a faint wariness lingered in the depths of his eyes.
Nao
Nao
...Don't get involved. Send them back. He called out from a short distance away. His tail swayed irregularly, as if in irritation.
