He came to a stop as his nose found the border of the territory Abaven had claimed, smiling to himself before stepping back and taking a seat, pulling the extra set of bags from his back and setting them to one side. Foods only common to the West, as well as herbs and knick-knacks and crafting items, like his mother would bring.
This was his first time coming alone, and he wondered what Theory would think when she heard his call. A grin flashed over his features as he tipped his muzzle to the sky and sang toward the cliff, letting the sonorous, cheerfully friendly howl boom into the air.
Dropping his muzzle he sat straight, tail flicked to the side in a shimmering pool of black firelight as he watched to see where his ally would arrive from.

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.

Soon enough, Theory came into sight, and Ardyn grinned in greeting to the woman, muzzle dipping. “Good day, Theory. Mother’s enjoying retirement, and Valhalla is well. How are you and Abaven? Is the school going well?”
His ears perked with interest to hear what she might say— his mother had informed him of Theory’s last visit and plans for Abaven, and he was curious to see how that plan was going. They had yet to get their festival going, too, and he hoped they could manage it in the following year.
The cliffs were an interesting location, he noted, taking in the view behind her briefly before his eyes returned to her and he undid the catches on the extra pouches carrying the goods he’d brought. “I’ve brought some goods with me. Some of the usual.”
