Shuran Cloud

A magical cloud originating from the Autumn Cluster (塊秋, "Akikatamari"), a large sentient yellow cloud supposedly hovering above the sacred Mount Ōmukade (大百足山, "Giant Centipede Mountain").
==Overview==
The Shūran Cloud was a gift to Yamazaru from his mother, Shiraha, on his eighth birthday and was originally meant to be a guardian to him. As the years have passed, it has become a companion and a means for transportation though is unable to speak. Yamazaru reserves the right to summon the Shūran Cloud but it is usually not very far from where he is. It is immensely fast and can fly at high elevations, resisting tough winds. The Shūran Cloud is usually three meters wide but can expand to six when it desires to do so. Yamazaru considers it to be female despite the fact that it doesn't actually have a gender. After training with the Monkeys of Sarushima, he has gifted his fathers, former guardian, as a present from Lord Sarugami.
When one proves themselvers to the monkeys they may be gifted one such cloud.
