Noctisardor Bypass Our great glory, and our great tragedy.

Thanks for joining! Thought Nyx assuming him as someone else might be interesting.  ;P

Snow clung to her ears, head and dorsal, though she was quick to thoroughly shake it from her pelt as she paused in her tracks beneath the shelter of a dense canopy. Lowering to her haunches, Nyx set about licking the dampness from her chest and forelimbs, teeth carefully preening the pale fur there.

So focussed on keeping her fur clean and dry, the young Ostrega barely registered the presence of another. She heard movement among the trees, though nothing that caused alarm, so she chose to ignore it. Only when the distinct sound of paws on the forest floor heading in her direction, did the raven-tipped wolfess lift her vivid eyes and fix her stare to the dark features of a lone male, where a pair of eyes kissed by fire stood out on an obsidian face.

In the dim light of the forest, her immediate thought? Brunneus.

Wrongly assuming this stranger to be the dark-furred brute she'd rejected, Nyx at once bore her fierce fangs and a low rumble within her breast warned the other to keep his distance. She was not afraid of Raddei's arrogant son, but with her departure from Ormarr came the expectation that she would never see the snake-worshippers again. She had bested him once before, reduced him to a cowering heap on the ground, and was confident that history would repeat itself should Brunneus decide to creep closer.
