Ladent

- First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 32
Ladent seems almost tucked away inside his thick blue-grey robes, a small, bearded figure with hands barely emerging from their folds. There is something quietly amusing in the mismatch between his compact form and the great shell of fabric around him.

Ladent is an ardent whose brief appearance is defined by his short stature, bald head, beard, and voluminous robes. His small frame nearly disappears inside the heavy blue-grey layers, lending him the memorable air of a crab too small for its shell. The book gives no further account of his path or fate.
Description
Ladent is short and compact, with a bald head and a beard. Thick blue-grey robes fall around him in heavy layers, so oversized that his hands barely extend from the sleeves. The contrast between his small frame and the broad, enveloping clothing gives him a crablike silhouette; no details of his eyes or complexion are provided.
