He’d had to circle all the way around through the desert to bypass Ashen’s expansive borders on his way north. Hunting trips to outside lands would certainly take much longer if he wished to go north, even within the western region of Boreas.
The willows and the water they shrouded, were a pleasant sight, even after he’d stopped over at the oasis on his way here.
She waded in and sank up to his ears in the water with a sigh, ears dropping slightly, though he remained alert for any approaching pawsteps or rustles.
Summer was waning, the days shortening, though any sort of chill in the air had yet to arrive. The festival would be soon, and he looked forward to letting loose and enjoying the bustle and hubbub of the festivities well into the night, lit by torches and bonfires.
Ardyn sat up, stretching as he looked about, gazing at the long, trailing willow fronds. There would be a need for baskets, certainly.

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.
