It is the right choice, but I really wanted him to see more as well. I hope he gets to visit again, but he may be right, that it will not be the same. I'm glad his wife could keep her horse.
I really hope she escapes in the end, but I'm sure that's not what will happen. Poor thing just wants to be free, why can't they just pretend she died or something?
Yes! Ugh, I'm so sick of that old trope where someone makes the couple prove their love in order to get their arbitrary permission to be together. It's none of their business! Nobody has the right to insert themselves into your relationship. I love how she handled that.
