Embraced by rock, then taken by the air



Born unto water, yet a friend of fire



Child of the gods of the sky



Who am I, who am I?



As mighty as the rock



As a fast as the wind



As wise as water



As impulsive as fire



Smoldering sky, and soggy soil



I kill with a keratin coil



Who I am, who am I?



One of soil, fire, sea, and sky?



For each of my words, tell me why!

          Perhaps you are




          a dragon.




          Embraced by rock, then taken by the air

          Born unto water, yet a friend of fire




          Dragons are often shown as living in caves (embraced by rock); they fly (taken by the air); many culture's dragons, like the biblical "Leviathan", are sea creatures (born unto water); dragons in Western mythology are usually fire-breathing (a friend of fire).




          Child of the gods of the sky




          Chinese dragons, in particular, are divine creatures, often particularly associated with gods of rain and thunder.




          As mighty as the rock

          As a fast as the wind

          As wise as water

          As impulsive as fire




          Dragons are generally depicted as mighty, fast, wise, and (sometimes) impulsive or at any rate quick to anger.




          Smoldering sky, and soggy soil

          I kill with a keratin coil




          Fire breathed down from above (smoldering sky); association with sea and caves (soggy soil); aside from their fiery breath, sharp teeth, and (in some cultures) magical powers, dragons are also typically shown as having sharp curved talons, which are presumably made of keratin. ("Coil" seems a bit of a stretch, though, so that's a weak point.)
