It wasn't realy special untill I found a watch showing it at the front, and on the back a drawing of the mystical flower "The flower of hell" originated from a small island south in Japan.

I wuld like to know more about both the flower and the drangon, and their relationship...

The dragon is not japaneese, it's chineese. I don't know so much about it, and i never knew before I found that watch that it migth have had a relationship with the flower. The myth about the dragon is rare enough by itself.
All I know is that it lives near lakes in the forests in the high mountains in north-west china. I call it a ligthning dragon, even tho it don't have more electrical powers than a normal dragon, i call it that because it's bones are wriggely shaped like ligthning... It's wery skinny so you can se most of the bone structure through the skin.

The Chinese dragon is considered to be the most powerful and divine creature and is believed to be the controller of all waters. The dragon symbolised great power and was very supportive of heroes and gods. One of the most famous dragons in Chinese mythology is Yinglong "Responding Dragon", said to be the god of rain. Many people in different places pray to Yinglong in order to receive rain. In Chinese mythology, dragons are believed to be able to create clouds with their breath. Chinese people sometimes use the term "Descendants of the Dragon" as a sign of their ethnic identity.

For the most part, Chinese myths involve moral issues which inform people of their culture and values.

Thats all I know.

It's not able to controll clouds as other chineese dragons do.
