Jarden Ardelis ~ 2nd year ~ Tenũsa
Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, / And sorry I could not travel both / And be one traveler, long I stood
──────────────────────────────Stop I──────────────────────────────
And looked down one as far as I could / To where it bent in the undergrowth;
──────────────────────────────Stop I──────────────────────────────
And looked down one as far as I could / To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair, / And having perhaps the better claim, / Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Though as for that the passing there / Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.  | Travel Itenerary
~Stops along the road~ |  I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. |

Hello there, weary traveller. Have you come here to read of someone else's journey? Never fear. Sit down for a cup of tea and let's talk for a while.
 xxxxxxxxxxxxx | x | Before - The Road Behind - Backstory Was any of it real? or was your love a lie? / Don't tell me the truth or i'll cry  Jarden Grew up on The Isle of Divination in Nephila Pilipes {also the name of a spider}. He was born to Camilla and Haagian Ardelis on the 26th of February in 2013 with a twin sister, Mayah {Mayah's older}. Being the youngest of six children, he and Mayah were both a little overlooked and got a lot of attention depending on the day. He was a genuinely adventurous child, hanging out with his sister and best friend {they they don't talk a lot anymore}. Plants had always been fascinating to him, leading into the discovery of his plant journal where he takes a plant and makes it sound more magical. Being a metamorphmagus was also a big part of his childhood, showing some of his friends how he could change some strands of his hair different colours {though he wasn't too proficient in actually controlling it}. Having a lot of siblings, he was rarely bored, always having someone to bother {when he wasn't learning with the clan, before being taken up by a Dunkun at eleven}. Tallinn was his favourite to bother, when he wasn't learning, that was. While they had the largest age gap between all the siblings they were the most like each other, a thing that only came more apparent from over time. |  xxxxxx |
When one couldn't find Jarden, they either looked outside, or waited twenty minutes till he came back from whatever part of the island he was exploring. He was hard to contain in one place for more than an hour or so at a time, preferring to peruse knowledge on his own terms than on someone else's. Jarden was usually good about telling his parents or teacher/dunkun when he was going somewhere, but occasionally someone else on the island ended up finding him a telling him he had to go back home before his mother started worrying. | x |  "Family [...] Loyalty [...] Content [...]" |  His childhood was comprised of plants, laughter, and family, though not necessarily in that order. Family was the thing he was taught to value most in the world, loyalty and being content where life put you were two close runner ups. Now, he is a student at Tenũsa, finding himself and his own beliefs. |
────────────── |  ---------------A Fork in the RoadHe got angry, as most six-year-olds do—furious, really—because some of his brother's friends were laughing at him. His hair had turned bright pink, and no matter how hard he concentrated, it wouldn’t go back. In a burst of frustration, the nearby Strangler Figs, roots reaching out like fingers, suddenly came to life. Vines and branches shot forward, hoisting the teasing boys into the air. It took an hour, a very worried sibling, and three adults to get them untangled from the limbs. |

 xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx    Extra Pair of Glasses, Wand, & Bag #Explorer | ───────────────── ↶Bracelets from His sister Mayah. Sort of a keepsake. Rarely is off his person.    | x |  Jarden is a kind boy, one prone to solitude and being rather awkward and shy around other. On the flip side, once he does get to know a person better he’s quite friendly and outgoing, going in the direction of either philisophical or non-stop laughter and jokes. There is no in between. He grew up with the teaching that family is more important than anything else. Naturally, he is quite loyal to both his blood family, and those he accepts into his life as something akin to family. And while he knows family is most important, he longs for travel. He cannot get enough of the world, and can hardly experience it all within the clutches of his family, never letting him stray too far. This leads to a sort of restlessness, always going further away, coming back later, and getting irritable when in one place for too long. |
