The older man had a respectful bearing and greeting, and Ardyn smiled slightly. It was good to hear that Corbie’s intervention had given the former-Abaven wolves somewhere to call home, if Corvus’ surname truly meant he’d been part of Abaven. Destruction had been a house name of Abaven for so long, you could usually guess right that one with the name was part of the pack.
His ears perked with interest at the mention of a festival, and he remarked, “I’d love to have Valhalla attend, count us in.”
The tone shifted to a more somber note as Corvus asked after any sign of Theory. Slowly, Ardyn shook his head. “I’ve met her. She attended the festival my mother held when I was a pup, and we’ve met a few times after, but I haven’t seen or heard from her since the fall of Abaven. I truly hope she’s alright; she never struck me as a wolf who’d just up and leave her people without word. Not willingly.”
His head shook before he added, “But if we come across her, I’ll send word to you first.”
He shifted the topic once more, asking, “I’m sure you’ve traveled a bit; are you hungry at all? Any wolf of Avalon is welcome to rest in one of our huts when they need to if they’re passing by.”

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.
