About This Card

Arven leans over a picnic table in a sunlit forest clearing, slicing a layered sandwich on a wooden cutting board. The orange-draped table around him holds a salad bowl, bread, a mustard bottle, a ketchup jar, salt and pepper, a pepper mill, and a cup of decorative food picks, with a woven picnic basket at the right. A large blue mug sits beside the salad bowl at the left of the spread.
