Yakujin returned to her lair, a big cave covered with many enchantments that she used to repel all other Spirits away from interrupting her in her sleep.

"( I hope you're not pissed on whatever news the Snake brought you, Master Yakujin. )" said a voice, communicating telepathically to Yakujin's mind.

"( The 'Brotherhood of Scales', the 'Brotherhood of Scales' again. )" Yakujin responds.

"( Pfft, those scaly reptiles are getting on my nerves, seeing their scales made my beautiful fur shiver in disgust of their scales, ugh! )"

"( Can't those scaly savages keep this beautiful fox asleep in peace and relax, fighting could make any female go ugly, you know? )" Yakujin asks as she flicks her hair.

"( Well, it is your risk for being a 'Chimera Master', milady. )"

"( For being one is already an 'X-Mark' to your head, a word used in the Ages of Old. )"

"( Sigh, so much for the Age of Chimeras and Hybrids, pft! )"

"( Why they're too many of us in the first place? it made me sick since more hybrids are born more uglier than before. )"

"( Pft, even humans now create Hybrids or attempt to become hybrids themselves, what annoying progress those mongrels made. )"

"( They should've just lived normally and paid tribute to their Ruler Chimeras, like the inferiors they always are... )" Yakujin tells the one she talked to in her mind as she lay down relaxed fully on her place.

"( You should try to be kind, especially towards the Hybrids, Master Yakujin. )"

"( Aren't they still your kind too? )" asked the voice to her.

"( Well yes, but I have to be picky for that. )"

"( Since I don't want to relate myself to those low-value creatures than mine, hmph! )" said the Kitsune Chimera as she then heard something from afar.

"( Is the village having another party again? )" Yakujin asks as she hears a loud voice, like a parade that came from the Village that was placed in the 'Thunder Mist Mountains', the Village under her domain that worshipped her.

"( I think the villagers are giving you another offering again, Master Yakujin! )" the voices tells.

"( Another, now!? )"

"( Oh right, I forgot that this is the time when these human mongrels appease me with their offerings. )"

"( I hope their offerings taste good this time, unlike the ones before... )"  Yakujin says as she still lays in her lair, awaiting the villagers to come with her offering.

...

( Meanwhile. )

Many men rise into the mountains, lifting a palanquin that had a young boy in it, whom the villagers prepared as an offering for the Great Chimera Master, Yakujin.

" The Shamans told us that the boy possessed the blood with the greatest delicacy to the Chimera. " said one of the men who carries the palanquin.

" The 'Sacrifice Lamb Blood', the Blood said could make every kind of Monsters, even the Hybrids into great ecstasy as they smell it. " said the other man.

" With this boy being offered, the Great Yakujin should able to withstand her hunger for ten years based on what the Shaman foretold us. "

" Hope that is true... " 

" Right, brat! " the man says to the young sacrifice as he sits inside his palanquin, praying to himself as the Palanquin goes on.
