Dajuqua begins to grow tired from the chase. Having been in hibernation for so long and being so hungry, he is a little out of practice in swimming and lacking in stamina. He pulls away from the serpent and rises to the surface. He swims tothe lake’s edge and crawls onto the land, enjoying the warmth of the sun once again. He lies down near the water, and his scales camouflage to match the ground. He now looks like little more than an unusual hill in the ground. He decides to wait, either for the serpent to reemerge, or for another suitable meal to come by, all while resting his muscles.
