Conflict Between Bambi and the Great Prince

Don't you speak to me-
Bambi: [runs off, upset]
I WISH MOTHER WAS HERE INSTEAD OF YOU!!
Friend Owl:
Oh, my, my, my. Well, I've certainly made a muddle of things.
Great Prince:
No, This is my fault. Bambi needs a mother. A prince should NOT be raising a child!

Seasons of Change and New Beginnings
Bambi:
I miss you so much.
Bambi's Mother:
Shh. There now. It's going to be all right. You'll see.
Bambi:
Why'd you have to go?
Bambi's Mother:
Everything in the forest has its season. Where one thing falls, another grows. Maybe not what was there before, but something new and wonderful all the same.
Bambi:
But I feel so alone.
Bambi's Mother:
I'm always with you. Even when you can't see me, I'm here.

Friend Owl:
Oh, yes. Of course, yes. Hmm. Food's so scarce. Does can barely feed themselves. Perhaps you could...
Great Prince:
Me?! You know as well as I do, a prince looks after the herd. Does care for the young.
Friend Owl:
But you are his father, and circumstances being what they are...
Great Prince: [sighs]
Until spring.
Friend Owl:
Oh, excellent! After all, who better to raise the young prince...than the Great Prince himself?
