DaVinci hadn't expected his daughter to react the way she did, he'd known that it would upset her when he told her the news and he knew that he could have been a little less harsh when he'd thrown the news at her but it was too late to change that now. He dropped the small collection of shells to the ground as he watched her close her eyes. He sighed softly and opened his maw to apologize when all of a sudden Skylar had moved forward to meet him.
When her arms had wrapped around him and she rested her head on his shoulder he seemed to stiffen for a moment before suddenly relaxing and burying his muzzle into his young daughter's mane. He closed his eyes as she apologized for not being there. He just shook his head as he whispered. "I'm sorry she's not here.." He just wished everything had turned out so differently but he knew that there was nothing let but tomorrow and Iskata wasn't part of the future.
