Ragna’s pregnancy was announced suspiciously soon after her marriage to Eastmund, and rumors have been forming since then. It’s been suggested that Ragna was having an affair while betrothed to the king, and her lover is the father of the newborn twins. Others are countering this by saying Eastmund is the father, but the twins were conceived before the wedding. Whatever the truth may be, the royal family is for the most part trying to ignore all the gossip. Ragna is upset by the rumors, worrying the kingdom will never accept her as the new queen. Eastmund firmly believes himself to be the father, though, and has publically denounced anyone saying otherwise.

Andra had insisted to Alyk that she did not want to bear his children. However, Fonso and Neri were born a little while after they were married. Alexandre doubts that they are Alyk's children but Andra and Alyk insist they were premature. The kingdom is split between those who believe they are illegitimate and those who do not.

Round 1:
Humphrey knew from the time he was a small child that he would be King one day, and maybe soon. His mother died from the childbirth, and that was after many unsuccessful pregnancies. His father suffered a disease that left him severely weakened when he was just 2 years old. His father was partially paralyzed, and slowly lost more and more function as time went on. However, he retained his sharp mind right up until the end. Humphrey wasn't betrothed, because his father knew that he was going to have enough responsibility, and wanted to provide at least a chance at love and happiness. Just 2 months after his 18th birthday, the old King just never woke from his nights sleep. Humphrey was crowned, and his advisors urged him to seek a wife.

---

Humphrey, knowing that it was his duty, held a month of banquets to meet all of the eligible Ladies, Duchesses, Princesses and other nobles that his advisors wanted him to marry. Aenor came with her older sister, the Duchesses of Cerise, as a companion. However, Humphrey found Aenor's gentle wit and sparkling eyes unforgettable. He arranged to met Aenor in one of the palace gardens, and there asked her to be his wife and Queen of Cotswold. Overwhelmed, Aenor said that she would need to think on it.

---

However, when Aenor found her way back to her room, she also found her sister. Her sister was furious, and accused her of stealing the King from her. This put steel in Aenor's back, who knew that she didn't do any such thing. Deciding in that instant the she was fond of the King and thought that she had a good chance at happiness, she stormed out of her room and went to find the Humphrey and let him know.

---

William and Anya had been married only three weeks when the announcement came that the queen was with child. The Arkavians were surprised at how soon it had happened, but it was nothing too out of the ordinary. Tongues began wagging in earnest when Anya gave birth to healthy twins only seven months later. Was William the father of the children, or was it Anya's late husband Pavel, who had died just two weeks before her marriage to the king? The most extreme conspiracy theorists even suggested that William's eldest son, the fourteen-year-old Lord Alexander, had had an illicit affair with Anya before the wedding and was actually the babies' father (a ridiculous notion, since Anya had not even been to Arkavia until she married William).

---

William wanted to trust his wife, for in their short time together he had grown quite fond of her, but he could not stand the thought of being taken for a fool and putting another man's son in line to inherit his throne. He demanded to see records of Pavel's family, the House of Volkovnikov. Once he saw that twins did not run in Pavel's family -- in fact, none of Pavel's forefathers had ever sired twins -- he was satisfied that Charles and Eléonore were his own flesh and blood.

--DS/DD: Prince Leopold Koto Sagesse Aldric Noel / Princess Isabelle Haiku Odette Cecile (0)

---

The king and queen surprised the kingdom by announcing Queen Suzume's pregnancy what seemed like almost immediately after the wedding. It made sense, however - the new queen was very young, so there was really no reason that she wouldn't and shouldn't have children. Though, with Remy's birth, any son of hers would likely not succeed the throne.

---

When the queen gave birth less than eight months later to twins, it was the favored subject of gossip throughout Legato. She had been pregnant, they said, before her marriage to King Frederic! But the doctors insisted that it was simply a premature birth, as was likely to happen with twins. The new prince and princess were rather small, though healthy, so they didn't see any reason to believe that they were sired by any man other than the king. Besides, while they strongly favored their mother, they had the same light eyes as their father and half-siblings.

---

Queen Suzume stubbornly ignored the rumors and threw herself into caring for her children with the same energy she had displayed coming into the castle. King Frederic named the new prince Leopold, after his father, and named his fourth daughter Isabelle, the French form of his late wife's name. The queen, who enjoys music and poetry, gave them the middle names Koto after the instrument and Haiku after the poetry form. She dotes on the twins but still makes sure she spends time with the princesses, who don't quite view her as a mother but more as a sister, and of course cares for Remy, who simply calls her "Maman" now.

(An Easter Egg of sorts is in the final sentence of the final paragraph!)

---

More Scandal in Solandra!

---

Recently, the new queen Doña Nedda has brought forth the second pair of royal twins! The fraternal twins were Principe Santiago Damien Valerian Orpheus de Ramal y di Sforza, or Infante Santiago, and Princesa Euphemia Filomela Sabrina Artemisia de Ramal y di Sforza, or Infanta Euphemia. The twins' names expressed the slight change in naming patterns, but Don Carmelo has insisted to keep the final middle name from mythology, as per his late wife's wishes.

---

However, the births were also a cause for more rumours to abound. The twins were born in perfect timing, but Don Carmelo had only married Doña Nedda some seven months ago! The implication was clear: Doña Nedda was pregnant before the marriage. But the search for a new queen only began after the late Doña Aspasia died. Could this have a connexion?

---

Doña Nedda herself was very distraught with the rumours abounding within Solandra, and tried to appease it as best as she could. Don Carmelo, confused as to what to do, simply remained silent on matters and grew cooler towards his new wife. His attitude made people speculate whether he had an affair with her while still married to Aspasia, or if the children were not his after all.

---

(I'm making Francoise a bit older--she just doesn't feel like a 23 in my mind.)

---

Just a month after their wedding, a royal announcement is made that the new Queen is pregnant. This news is met with not much enthusiasm--the kingdom was quite fond of Isabella, and they felt Louis remarried too soon. Françoise enjoys her pregnancy, milking it for all that it's worth--she is carried in a litter even throughout the palace and makes her ladies in waiting do the simplest tasks for her. She only acknowledges the children when she is with Louis during state functions. Therese especially despises Francoise, calling her "La Vache" (the cow) in her letters to Anne, who is also pregnant and is planning on naming her unborn baby Isabella, if it proves to be female.

---

However, when Francoise gives birth only six months later, rumors begin to spread that Francoise was pregnant before she married the King and used it as a bargaining chip to bully the king into making her his legitimate wife--or, as the bolder ones said, that she was carrying another man's child. Though Louis expressly denies it, he is surprised and even somewhat grudgingly impressed on how spot-on the rumors were: as he had a healthy son and heir, Louis had no interest in marrying after Isabella's death.

The marriage was sudden, the product of a hasty peace treaty between the Kingdom of Solandra, from which the Queen hails, and the King's home, Valhurst. The marriage is one of duty, although the king and queen had a quite civil relationship before the war broke between their kingdoms. The hopes of peace between the kingdoms rest in the hands of their royalties, and if they can unite, the joint kingdom will be the most powerful ever known.

When Barnaby and Xiomara were born, the first one to hear rumors was the king himself. Around the kingdom, rumors were floating that the Queen had been pregnant before she married Aloysius. The king flew into a rage when he first heard the rumors. They seemed absolutely credible to him. He was angry and questioned Ariadne about this. Ariadne turned pale and trembly. She knew she hadn't done it, but it was just too much to bear. King Aloysius, when he saw his pale and trembling wife, took it to mean that Ariadne HAD been pregnant before their marriage. He was about to storm out of the room when Ariadne broke in. "No, no, Aloysius. I didn't do anything. Barnaby and Xiomara are truly yours. Don't you see the resemblance? They have your golden locks. No one in my family has ever had golden hair. It simply doesn't run in our family. Barnaby has your nose, and what a lovely, adorable nose it is, too! Xiomara has those long, graceful fingers of yours. They both are long. None of those things run in my family. My family has forever been short in all ways. We do not have graceful fingers or lovely noses. We're plain, though we are nobility. Trust me, Aloysius, the twins are yours." Aloysius had to believe Ariadne, for when he looked at Barnaby and Xiomara he saw the things their mother pointed out.

---

Aloysius and Ariadne looked into the origin of the rumors. They found out that no one really believed them. Many of the commoners simply passed them in disbelief. The origin was an older woman who is jealous of Queen Ari, for the older woman had thought that SHE would be the new wife of the king--as if! Aloysius had her taken to her native country, for the woman wasn't Solandrian by birth; she was from somewhere far away. The kingdom has been rid of troublemakers for now.

Not even nine months after marrying King Dei, Queen Xan gave birth to twins-- Prince Hawthorne and Princess Illuminata. There are rumors that she was pregnant when they were wed. King Dei ignores these; he is growing increasingly bitter with the tabloids as of late, as they also have suggested that Queen Cosima had been murdered so he could marry Queen Xan-- completely untrue.

(I hope it's ok that the princess's fn doesn't honor the late Queen--- Lullaby has the MN Cosima, Stormily has the MN Helena, and Malachi's entire name is an anagram of Cosima's... She is well honored.

The people of Wycliffe are in a mixed state as King Frederick & his new wife Queen Ella welcome healthy twins, Prince William & Princess Helena, a full month early.

---

Some think because of the King's again the likelihood he could father children so quickly with his wife, considering the time it took with his previous wife was much longer, a him a good ten years younger.

---

Frederick doesnt at all doubt the children are his, because Ella, while a older bride by royal standards, had a reputation for being pious and chaste.

---

They named William after his paternal grandfather King William V, Waldemar after his godfather Grand Prince Vladimir, Frederick's younger brother who was Prince Arthur before being offered the throne of Chrystopia and Wulf after his maternal grandfather Margrave Wulf of Schwarzburg.

---

Princess Helena was named after the late Queen. Her middle name Delores is a reminder of the sorrows of the her namesake's passing and Tatiana after her godmother, Grand Princess Tatiana, Vladimir's wife.

The reality is however, that she very well might have been. Her husband Duke Tidus, passed away shortly before Queen Rikku. She very well could have been already pregnant. Gippal and Yuna have bonded over their losses, and while they will never stop loving their very missed spouses, they have begun to love eachother in a way.

The Queendom is celebrating once more! Queen Margaret has given birth to twins once more – another princess and another prince! The princess was even named after the late King George (sometimes called “the Heroic”)!

---

It has been rumored (mostly from the direction of Forestmere) that, because the twins were born so quickly after the Royal Marriage, the twins are not King Bartholomew’s. Queen Margaret and King Bartholomew seem unconcerned about the rumors. Even the people of Quadrille know it is merely the Forestmere Rebels trying to make trouble, but King Heinrich the Bloodthirsty of Viridian (King Bartholomew’s father) is threatening to withhold his support unless the twins can be proven to be of his own bloodline!

---

Queen Margaret, in response to these outrageous claims, simply invited King Heinrich to visit the palace and meet his grandchildren. Upon seeing the babies, King Heinrich was satisfied, as Bartholomew is his own spitting image!

Queen Sarah met David in a Bar in London, he was not a royal. And it was love at first sight! Their only wish is to have a baby (or better a footballteam). David absolutely loves football ;) The general state of the kingdom is very peaceful and the Royal House of Esterbank is really in vogue.
Three years after their first get-together, Sarah and David finally welcomed their first daughter! And her big brother (his mother died on lung cancer and was an ex-friend of David, but she kept quite that they have a son) is so proud of her. Sarah and David are very caring and she loves her little prince like a son. The public is very delighted with the two new kids and that they attend so lovely to Jack.
Shortly after Marleys day of birth, a further pregnancy astonishes the queen, but her son died only afew days after his birth. They all were very sad to let him go. But now they are happy to welcome two new family members after a very hard pregnancy, twin sisters of Jack, Marley and Jack. They would like to have more kids, but from the beginnig it was clear that Jack will be the King one day and all are happy with it, Jack is a really careful, strong and proud little boy.

---

The young queen had never been with a man other than her husband and was thus shocked and upset when she heard some of the rumors surrounding her first pregnancy. The people of the kingdom, it seemed, thought the speed with which she conceieved rather suspect; the bolder ones flat-out accused her of being pregnant before she was married. Meli was very emotional while carrying the twins, feeling ostracized and lonely, especially as her husband remained distant and very much in love with Eloisa.

---

Meli's only real solace was in her stepchildren, who kept her days busy and bright. Nigel acted like he was Meli's big brother as well, making sure she was rested and trying to keep her happy. Columba was a sweet, sunny girl and could be content for hours just brushing and braiding her stepmother's long hair. Artemisia and Demetria were growing fast and constantly in some sort of mischief, but the girls were just so smart and adorable (not to mention rather spoiled) that they always got away with it. Hadrian was barely toddling but already handsome and affectionate.

---

Meli adored her stepchildren all so much that she had them help name the newest twins when they were born. She tried to honor them all as well as their mother. Darius and Helene were beautiful and healthy and well-loved by their elder siblings. The king could barely look at them, but Meli and the rest hoped that he would come around with time.

Only eight months after their wedding, Nicky gave birth to twins, which caused quite a scandal in the kingdom at first. Fairlin does not have a prudish culture, but if the queen was already pregnant when she married the king and didn't tell him, it could be considered treason, trying to get another man's child to the throne.

Beatrice gave birth to healthy twins: Edward and Helena. It came to a surprise that the twins were born a bit too early and when the King heared rumours that the Queen might already have been pregnant when they married, it did make sence. But neither the King nor the majority of the people believed this ideas anyway. They said that this rumour were invented by a small group of opposition to destroy the Dynasty of the Tamarind family. The Queen was very enraged when she heared about the rumours but since she knew that almost nobody believes it, she calmed down and now can enjoy the birth of her children.
