Inspired by the European myth of the Wild Hunt, I made a new version of my Wolfir Planeswalker Cian.
On Adastra the longest night of the year is the one right before the annual dawn (night and day cycles are measured on the moons the rest of the year btw) the elves of the world celebrate the Wild Hunt. It is the time of the year when life in the forest is at it's climax and in honor of the god Feyanir, who is the god of hunt and balance, a grand hunt is held, thinning out weak and old beasts of the forests and with the rise of the following moon a grand feast follows where the slain beasts are honored.
The hunter who performce best during the night of the hunt is further honored as the Chosen of Feyanir until the next hunt at the end of the following year when a new Chosen comes forth.
After the Wolfir had come to the world, their leader Cian won the Wild Hunt, earning his and his kind also further favor from the elves, bringing them together to eventually become one pack, what eventually resulted in the elves becomming werewolves.

This one took me a bit to think about to come up with something new from the previous illustration of Cian actually, since I kinda wanted something new but also repeating elements like the spirits, but unlike other illustrations I made for my planeswalkers, Cian didn't color-shift mana wise and remains mono-green as a card, so I couldn't base something on that. Still I am kinda okay with how it turned out, also not utterly happy.
Also I have not really an idea about the new card of him, so I would love to hear suggestions if someone got any.
Besides general opinions and thoughts of course.
Here is also the previous illustration of Cian
