"Really now?" Darnel asked with a slight smirk looking down on the smaller built stallion, clearly being Much taller than him "I think you are forgetting tradition Little Stallion, allow me to remind you. The Foal belongs to the Mother till they are weaned and cannot be separated. If the mother should die, it then falls to the mothers Mate or their herd." he leaned down to be nose to nose with him.

"That would be ME little Stallion and THIS herd." he said before straightening back up "when Soto left the Cliff climbers herd, they severed their ties, and seeing as you have a mate waiting for you, HE is not your mate." he turned and wrap an arm around Soto and made sure soto had a tight grip on Willow. before looking back.

"I do wonder however if your mare is aware of your cheating on her just so you could spread your seed. I don't know how it is in your Herd, but in all of the ones i know of, mates are Loyal to one another Only." he says almost mournfully "If you wish to fight for the foal, meet me in the sparing ring but know that either way, your betrayal against your mate will be made public if you do." he started to walk with Soto out of the tent and towards the sparing ring, passing the Lead stallion and having him watch over the two of them knowing they would be safe.
