It really wasn't fair, but she supposed she should have expected that reaction. She rubbed her eyes mournfully. Still didn't make it any easier to take, especially since she did like him. A lot. He'd been so attentive and kind to her, and he was clever and smart. She had hoped, no, she'd PRAYED that he'd be different, that he would see her as the young women who's conversation and company he desired. Not as a freak. She stamped her foot hard into the ground in frustration, the tears still flowing, looking at the horseshoe shaped imprint her front hoof left.
It had been going so well, he'd come to retrieve the custom tooled saddle she'd carved out for him. It was probably the prettiest and most ornate piece she'd made, but it had been a labor that she didn't mind because it was going to the person she'd lost her heart too. He'd paid her, with even a bit extra for the extra work, and

Given the choice he’d rather stay at Inns or trade magic work or healing for lodging from a farmer or tradesman. The one and only time King Raghnall took him hunting was laughable.
