Дешалэвскаруищзе (Dyeshalevskaruishzye), known throughout the mountain ranges as the Mountain King, stands as one of the most remarkable creatures ever to grace the peaks of this world. This extraordinary being takes the form of a gigantic blue axolotl, towering twenty meters in height, with ten massive legs that allow it to traverse the treacherous mountain terrain with surprising grace despite its enormous size.
The creature's most striking feature is its translucent blue skin, which seems to shift and shimmer like the surface of a mountain lake catching the morning light. Its external gills, far larger and more elaborate than those of normal axolotls, fan out like delicate coral formations, each filament pulsing with a subtle bioluminescent glow that intensifies with its emotions. These gill-crowns have earned it additional reverence among the mountain dwelling peoples, who see them as a natural crown befitting its status as Mountain King.
Each of its ten legs ends in a peculiar pad-like formation, covered in thousands of microscopic crystalline structures that enable it to grip even the most precarious mountain surfaces. These legs move in a hypnotic, wave-like pattern when it walks, creating a sight that's both mesmerizing and slightly unsettling to behold. The creature's eyes are particularly noteworthy - enormous golden orbs that seem to hold ancient wisdom, with vertical pupils that dilate dramatically in response to light and emotion.
Дешалэвскаруищзе possesses an unusual quirk of producing a deep, resonant humming sound that vibrates through the mountains, which local inhabitants have learned to interpret as a sort of emotional barometer for the creature. This humming varies in pitch and intensity depending on its mood, creating what some describe as a natural symphony that echoes through the peaks.
Despite its intimidating size, Дешалэвскаруищзе displays a gentle and curious nature, though it maintains a dignified aloofness that befits its status. It has developed a complex relationship with the mountain ecology, serving as both guardian and shepherd to the unique high-altitude ecosystem. The creature's presence has profound effects on its environment - wherever it rests for extended periods, unusual crystalline formations begin to grow, and water sources develop peculiar properties that the mountain folk claim have healing capabilities.
The Mountain King's body constantly secretes a unique mucus that has remarkable properties, glowing with a pale blue light in darkness and possessing the ability to accelerate the growth of certain mountain plants. This has led to the development of unique flora around its frequent resting places, creating oases of bioluminescent vegetation in the harsh mountain environment.
Дешалэвскаруищзе's age remains a mystery, but ancient cave paintings suggest it has dwelled in these mountains for countless generations. It appears to be the last of its kind, though whether it was ever part of a larger population remains unknown. The creature shows particular interest in astronomical events, often positioning itself on the highest peaks during celestial phenomena, its gill-crowns glowing with increased intensity during these moments.
