The Sonic Seducer magazine wrote that Yav was more mature and serious than Arkona's previous releases, leaving the clichés of the genre behind. The album was also lauded for a diversity of moods.[3] The reviewer for the Austrian Stormbringer website observed that elements of black metal had now been combined with Arkona's typical style which provided for the album's sinister atmosphere.[2]

It’s a cute baby dragon. Its markings give off an otherworldly light.Young dragons are relatively defenseless. They are born with relatively soft scales, which are shed and replaced with harder ones as the hatchling matures. Once a hatchling’s wings grow in, it marks the beginning of maturation.

gollark: No, I mean, the text I regex-filter doesn't actually contain HTML tags.
gollark: The HTML tags are stripped out already, so those can be dropped.
gollark: Is this actually likely to be better than my new approach of just parsing hour/days separately?
gollark: Okay, looks like days but no hours is fine.
