On one of the higher peaks of the canyon, not too far from his twin brothers, Okami Kengan could be found meditating. Places such as these were one of the few places he could truly feel at peace, his thoughts undisturbed by anything remotely violent - in fact, moments like these were the only times his mind was entirely his own, unpoisoned and not at all corrupted by the impure teachings of the Kengan clan. In fact he'd even gotten to the canyon first, but that was when Kyo saw fit to join him. That had been fine because at least Kyo knew to not interrupt his meditation. The same could not, unfortunately, be said for --
"♪So this is where you went off to Kyo. Here I thought you went to go take a shit, don't tell me you started the fun without me! And whose this other kid?♪"
... And there it was, the party-pooper was here - Yatoru, also known as his oldest brother... And the one he wanted to surpass the most - more than even their father, Yujiro Kengan. Wait, there was another kid there? As in, a literal child? Okami's brilliant amber eyes would open at this as he stood up, jumping down onto the ground with no sign of pain or discomfort in his legs or feet. He would take a look at his surroundings, the fresh and clean air filling his upper and lower respiratory tracts and keeping him calm as he took note of the new arrivals... His analytical gaze would then fix itself upon the shortest, youngest, and most likely the weakest one there, but not before politely nodding in the direction of the woman, being polite since he could tell she was strong with but a glance.
"I gotta agree with Yato on this one, Kyo. Who's the kid? He doesn't look like much. Hell, I could probably lay him flat with both hands tied behind my back with each limb weighed down with two-ton boulders in two seconds flat."
Naturally, it was no secret between him and his brothers that he knew weakness when he saw it - he should know, since he was the only one who'd been thrown down the mountain by his face for his rite of passage... Yujiro himself still insisted to this day he had no idea why he'd gone that far. So if Okami of all people was making such claims, then there was a very strong chance of it being true.
