The Sunset Dragon - A'quirre Crimson Shadow. Its age is "very, VERY many years." The dragons of sunset are an echo of the era when the earthly world did not yet know the human race, and sunsets and sunrises weren't lost in the clouds of factory smoke waste. There are very few of such dragons left (although who knows, due to the fact that almost nothing is known about them, it is likely that they simply moved to some other world and appear in the human world infrequently). You can see the Sunset Dragon at sunset, obviously. They especially like to appear on the eve of cold weather, and since they usually fly in flocks, the sky acquires bright red tones. So, people, admiring the sunset, at the same time put a tick in their minds: "Yeah, the sunset is bright red, so it seems the cold is promised." ... Sunset dragons are not accustomed to the ground, they sleep and feed, in all likelihood, right on the fly - obviously, they feed on some kind of energy. These habits give researchers studying dragons reason to suspect them of distant kinship with the lords of the depths of the sea - dolphins, who also spend their whole lives in motion and half asleep. Some researches say that the dragons of the sunset are not afraid of even a vacuum, and they like to play tag in open space from time to time, absorbing various cosmic radiation with the entire area of their huge wings.
