Re: Nyx' Royal Congrats ▓▒░ Round 4 ░▒▓
in reply to a message by Nyx
please note i changed one of Princess2's middle names, from Eternity to Cosima. It still follows the naming rules of last round. Also, I messed with the storyline a little (used a brother instead of a sister or cousin), but it shouldn't affect anything. --
King: Griffin Esme Jacob Alexis Micajah Silver, King Griffin (32)
Queen: Eve Persephone Maude Celia Helena, Queen Eve (26)
Crowned Prince1: Griffin Esme Jacob Alexis Micajah Silver II, Prince Jacob (8)
Princess2: Tirzah Illuminata Persephone Lenore Cosima, Princess Tirzah (5)
Prince3: Kazimir Amichai Vivian Barnaby Ryou Kinnen III, Prince Kaz (3)
Adopted Daughter4: Tomorrow Hadassah Araminta Sofia, Dame Tomorrow (3)
Princess5: Helena Edith Briony Jane Lucienne, Princess Helena (nb)
Adopted Daughter6: Eternity Esther Keziah Sakura, Dame Eternity (nb)

From the Royal House of Caprizant
In the Kingdom of Phantasma
When Prince Kaz was two years old, Queen Eve found she was expecting yet again. At three months pregnant, her status was announced to the kingdom.A month after that, King Griffin received a letter, requesting he come immediately to a house on the shore. It was signed simply with the letter W.Griffin brought along a few guards, in case the situation was a trap of some kind, and went as requested. When the door opened, standing before him was his brother, Winton.Win invited him inside, where he found rather poor conditions. Waiting inside was a pregnant woman—six months along—and a small girl, perhaps only two. Winton explained that the woman, named Hadassah, was his wife, and the little girl was his daughter—her name was Tomorrow.He explained that Hadassah had struggled in her first pregnancy, and wasn't doing well with this one either. He also explained that he was being called to sea again—he worked in the merchant navy, shipping goods around the world—and he was worried about leaving Hadassah alone with a toddler and a difficult pregnancy. He said he'd heard of Griffin's ascension to the throne, and asked that Griffin take Hadassah and Tomorrow back to Phantasma and watch over them until he could return. He also added he felt he had no choice—the family needed the money, and Winton had no interest in being anyone else's charity case.Griffin agreed and when he returned home, Hadassah and Tomorrow came along too.Upon his return, he explained to Queen Eve the situation. She was kind and understanding and rather pleased to have a pregnant companion for the time. A statement was issued to the rest of the kingdom a few days later.---Three months later, Hadassah gave birth to a second daughter, whom she named Eternity. The labor had been particularly hard on her, and she required a lot of rest afterward. The nurses who had assisted with the other royal children were happy to help care for Eternity as her mom rested.However, Hadassah never regained her strength, and passed away before Eternity was a month old. Then Eve gave birth to a daughter as well, named Helena after one of her middle names. The birth should have been a joyous time, but instead was very somber with the loss of the king's sister-in-law.When Eternity was about 3 months, and Helena was 1 month, word came that there had been an accident—one of the merchant fleet's smaller ships had been damaged and sunk. About five men drowned in the accident, and Winton was among them.Griffin's promise had been to care for his brother's wife and children until he returned. Since there was no way he would return now, Griffin and Eve decided to adopt the two girls.

Jacob, Tirzah, Kaz, Tomorrow, Helena, Eternity

It seems to me that everything works just fine :-)I am trying my hardest to only provide an outline, the bare bones, so that people can chose how to use it within their own family/stories...As for the names, as long as you've highlighted it (as you did), I will do my best to make the changes on my end.
