My Internet went down! I've responded to all rounds!

King: James Robert Henry Augustus, King James XI (24)
Queen: Agata Ekaterina Anastasia, Queen Agatha (23)
-DPrincess1: Belphoebe “Belle” Georgiana Augusta, Princess Belphoebe (5)
-DPrince1: William Anastasius Fyodor Augustus, Crown Prince William (3)
DPrincess2/DPrince2: Victoria “Vita” Ekaterina Artemis, Princess Victoria / James “Jamie” Henry Eduard Apollo, Prince James
From the most noble house of Prowers,
In the mighty kingdom of Cascadrian.
Another holiday for the Cascadrian peasantry, for the King and Queen have had twins!
Prince James was born perfectly healthy, but Princess Victoria was born with a shriveled arm. The Royal Healers have done their best to help it grow, but – while it has certainly improved – it will never be a regular-sized arm.
Anyone who has seen the twins have remarked how much the young prince looks like King James. It has been decided, therefore, that these twins are the King’s, but Princess Victoria’s abnormality is the gods’ way of punishing Queen Agatha for adultery, as the Crown Prince looks more and more like Lord William Haberry every day.
It is rumored that when the Royal Healers tried to hand Princess Victoria to the Queen for the first time, the Queen’s face twisted in revulsion and she refused to hold the babe. She was then given to the King, who cradled the baby most tenderly, with a sad, guilty expression upon his face.

No worries!
Did you post a round two story? I would love to read about Willim's birth, and that Lord William Haberry guy, but you don't really need to respond to it. Glad you caught up!

I thought I had...(m) (ETA: the general gist of Round Two)
...but I just checked and I didn't! And I didn't save it or anything...Grrrrr...
So, the general gist of Round Two (because I can't remember the exact wording and I can't remember what specifically I put in):
King James gave the Cascadrian people another holiday because of the birth of a healthy prince. This was against the advice of Lord William Haberry, but he did it anyway.
It is rumored in the Cascadrian court that Prince William is actually the natural son of Lord William Haberry, as everyone has seen the looks passing between beautiful Queen Agatha and the old-enough-to-be-her-father Lord Haberry. And the naming of the Crown Prince William seems to confirm everyone's suspicions. Before these rumors can reach the ears of the King, however, another scandal breaks out.
Prince Fyodor, Queen Agatha's elder brother and heir to the throne of Maresh, is suspected of murdering his favorite mistress on the eve before the announcement of his engagement to Princess Agnessa of Lirana. All the evidence points to him, but the case is dropped because King Fyodor of Maresh bribes the police to drop it. It is considered a certain death to speak of it in front of any of the Royals involved, King James and Queen Agatha included.
