Disappointment flickered in his brown gaze, but Rehoboam said nothing. The mystery foal was not his child, and therefore not his to decide what to do with. He knew nothing of the Forest or its leaders, and could only hope for Nahawi's sake that they fought as fiercely to protect their own as the Peak did.

Reh was not a stallion given to sharing affection with other males, and when it was offered to him he sidestepped it without comment, not wanting to make the boss feel uncomfortable but also being wholeheartedly unwilling to engage on that front. Such affection had always been reserved for mares and children, and only rarely shared between fathers and sons.

"Best of luck to you both then." Reh offered blandly, his thoughts veering back to his own mistakes in fatherhood. There was nothing he regretted so much as not being around for the other three children he had sired. Hell, he didn't even know their names or what they were like or if they existed. Rhaenys excepted, of course. Offering a nod of his head as goodbye, the tobiano turned to make his exit now that Nahawi was calmed down and seemed to have made the decision that was troubling him.
