Alright, so how 'bout this.

Kumomashōjun has the duty of creating the "Ākikara" (赤秋空, Red Autumnal Sky) one a year. The phenomenon is a sign of good fortune to Humans in the months to come and has a natural effect of subtly raising the good fortunes for most beings for a short period (Of around a single day). The real goal behind creating the sky is to stave off a being called the which reveals itself once every year in order to cause destruction and attack Humans. The Nian fears the colour red, and is repelled by a sensitivity to extremely loud noises, a tertiary effect of the Red Autumnal Sky is that it generates a sound across the sky that Humans can't hear, but comes across as a deafening screech to the Nian. This causes the Nian to retreat back to its slumber until the following year.

Due to being shifted dimensions, Kumomashōjun cannot as easily influence the sky as he used to, as the dimension favours its own course and the dragons don't naturally occur in this realm. While he is more than powerful enough to enforce his influence over the skies, he cannot do so to bring about the Red Autumnal Sky. And so it happens that he meets Kogarashi, and that occurs as above, and eventually they form a partnership, Kogarashi gains a Zanpakutou formed of Kumomashōjun's body, and Kumomashōjun uses Kogarashi as a medium (Due to his affinity for the wind) to exert his influence without the world trying to revert it.

The Nian would exist in both dimensions as an aspect of Kumomashōjun, creating the Red Autumnal Sky prevents the Dragon from taking its form and wreaking havoc.

'cha think?
