It seemed his presence was starting to help her master her emotions enough to think over his suggestions, and he smiled at the nod, nodding in return. He gave her a squeeze, unaware of her reservations. He’d been conditioned to ignore heat cycles in the women around him. Most of the ladies in the pack were related, in any case.
He scanned the moor, then glanced down at her, asking, “You up for making it back to the Alcoves? Lyr can guide us around anyone else.”
He was pretty sure she wasn’t ready to encounter anyone else of Valhalla yet, at least not until she was bundled up enough not to make the lack of hair immediately noticeable. Once they were back at the Alcoves, he could get her settled and send Lyr off to let someone else know about the coyotes he’d chased off.

Ardyn at first glance is as black as can be imagined with a raven sheen.
Closer inspection proves that he shimmers in fire tones in every hair on his hide right down to his lashes.
More obviously, he glows like a bed of coals and flames with every movement and brush of fur. His tail is usually wagging, so blazes like a torch.
His adult teeth are in and his saber canines have grown to their full length (see profile). His mane and tail hair have grown to full length, as well as being lightweight and easily buffeted by breezes.
A look at his front paws will give the impression of hands, with his dew claw dropped low and lengthened into a functioning thumb, and his toes elongated into fingers. He has retractable, solid black cat-like claws on every paw.
Ardyn has developed a glowing mast of intricate markings in fire and ice colors over his face, symmetrical over the last seasons of Year 17 (see profile for details). During hunts or raids/sieges, he will smudge them out with black soot to cover the glow, otherwise, they are bright enough to note at first direct glance at his face. Not all his artwork currently portrays the mask markings.
He is also often bedecked in beads, small bells, feathers in blues, ribbons and braids thanks to the Ooze Event of Halloween 2021, and the Coathanger item that he got. The accessories generally are seen most in his mane and tail hair. He removes the brighter items and bells for hunts or battle.
