The yearling reiterated Ardyn’s words, and the young king chuckled softly, circling around into the sapphire fellow’s line of sight and taking a seat. “One of them should be here soon enough. My friends have gone to get them.”
He studied the younger wolf curiously, head tilting slightly before he scanned toward the wall, just to be sure the elephants hadn’t decided taking revenge was still a favorable option after all. “So is there a story behind all the chaos out there? Get too close to the herd?”
He’d have to see if the pack was up for another elephant hunt later on. If the huge beasts were going to be wandering far outside their natural habitats, then Valhalla might as well make use of the walking buffet.
He wondered if it was more a matter of this yearling had tried to bite off more than he could chew.

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.
