Setting, Map, and Seasons
The entirely of our site takes place on a set of two continents, as well as a collection of smaller islands - these continents are called Boreas and Auster.
Although Boreas and Auster are unconnected except to one another, it is assumed that other lands are accessible by water for wolves to freely travel to and from. There is no set lore for the worlds beyond Boreas and Auster, and you are free to have your characters come from whatever kind of world you choose.
Time Period
Ardent is set in the future, long after humans have gone extinct - and while some have heard of them in tales, they are largely things of the past. No living wolves have ever met humans. Only faint remnants of them are left behind, in trinkets that are found scattered and buried about the lands, and in the few remaining structures of theirs that nature has largely taken over.
Plot
Ardent has no site-wide plot, though occasionally events might occur that affect many or all of the characters on the site. Players are free to create their own plots and drama as they wish. Many of the largest site plots have included things like pack takeovers, raids and sieges, and large fights!
Many of the original characters from the site's beginning came to Boreas when a volcano erupted and destroyed their previous home.
