Ardyn was slightly surprised to see first Amory and second Tel answering the call to hunt. Fidelias was less of a surprise, though he could be as elusive as smoke to catch time to interact with.
Lyr returned, announcing that Cairo was busy with a kill already, and Ardyn nodded. Well, hopefully this bull elk would be too sore and tired from his fight and injury to cause too much hurt to the girls.
He smiled at each of the arrivals. “As Lyr explained, we have a bull elk who lost a fight and is injured enough that he should be a good kill.”
He swept his eyes over the three faces, studying them, before turning to the two young women. “If you’re up for it, Fidelias and I will circle ahead of him. Lyr can guide you from the sky. You two have the task of driving him toward us. Once we ambush him, get in there and do your best to help bring him down. Tel, use your sabers to slash the achilles tendons if you can. That will prevent him from putting up too much of a fight and injuring any of us, hopefully.”
He looked at each wolf, ears perking as he asked, “Does that sound like a plan?”

Ardyn at first glance is as black as can be imagined with a raven sheen.
Closer inspection proves that he shimmers in fire tones in every hair on his hide right down to his lashes.
More obviously, he glows like a bed of coals and flames with every movement and brush of fur. His tail is usually wagging, so blazes like a torch.
His adult teeth are in and his saber canines have grown to their full length (see profile). His mane and tail hair have grown to full length, as well as being lightweight and easily buffeted by breezes.
A look at his front paws will give the impression of hands, with his dew claw dropped low and lengthened into a functioning thumb, and his toes elongated into fingers. He has retractable, solid black cat-like claws on every paw.
Ardyn has developed a glowing mast of intricate markings in fire and ice colors over his face, symmetrical over the last seasons of Year 17 (see profile for details). During hunts or raids/sieges, he will smudge them out with black soot to cover the glow, otherwise, they are bright enough to note at first direct glance at his face. Not all his artwork currently portrays the mask markings.
He is also often bedecked in beads, small bells, feathers in blues, ribbons and braids thanks to the Ooze Event of Halloween 2021, and the Coathanger item that he got. The accessories generally are seen most in his mane and tail hair. He removes the brighter items and bells for hunts or battle.
