"The man who fears losing has already lost." -George R. R. Martin The filly was the first to appear; knowing how energetic Pan was, Solgar had expected that at least. Her chirpy voice hurt his ears, but he forced a grim smile onto his lips and replied gruffly, "Can't you call me 'father' like a normal kid?" If she is my kid. It was hard to suppress his age-old qualms about her parentage, even at this stage. Still, he could not bring himself to reach out and touch her in a friendly way.

"Pan, why don't you go play with one of your siblings for a while," he muttered, without shifting his gaze from the blue eyes of his lead mare. "Your mother and I have things to discuss." Strangely, he could feel his stomach tightening with nerves at the thought.
