He must know that.Prince Valiant: Well, how can he when you teach him that there's no safety in the world, not even in the arms of the people who gave him life?Denys: [starting to cry, causing Donovan to dry his tears] I know this to be true, Your Majesty. Because deep inside... I can still feel the pain of every time my father hit me.
