Cal shook his head and sighed. "Your father loves you, princess. He simply does not know how to express it. He is more comfortable as a king than as a father." He said, trying to soothe her. "You are definitely a human being. I can see that." He added quietly, figuring she wouldn't hear him. After that, he followed in silence until they reached the stables. He watched with slight amusement as the princess chose the most spirited horse there, knowing that there was nothing he could do to dissuade her. "I only ask that you be careful, my princess. I don't want you getting hurt." He said, as he went to the stall where his own horse was kept. She was a magnificent dapple gray Mustang with a cheerful temper and a gentle nature. "Dawnstar, it has been too long. We are riding with the princess today." He said to the mare, patting her neck.
