"Sad..?" He tilted his head some as he listened to the mare speak. He did not find it sad. To him with how he was raised it seemed like the greatest of honours. "To die fighting for the one you have sworn to protect, to know that they will live on with your sacrifice, it is what I know to do. It is what my life is." Hanging his head some he gave a soft sigh, "I have no family to protect as you do. My life is to protect those that I serve. Sadly I was separated from them some time ago and my life has been spent wondering since." He chuckled a bit as he lifted his head to look over at the mare once again. His glowing teal eyes blinking slowly as he gazed up her. One could swear she was a princess with how regal her appearance seemed to him, "By the time I find something to do with myself I'll probably be some old man who live in the past. So.. I suppose.." He closed his eyes, his ears giving a subtle flick, "If you so wish for me to. I can remain by your side as a guardian to you and your child. I'd quite enjoy having something to dedicate my life to once again."
