LN: Bergfalk
DH: Duke Heinrich Johann Siegmund Jorg (27)
DW: Duchess Eleonore Josefine Liesel (19)
Rank: Duke/Duchess
Heinrich Bergfalk is a distant relative of King Walter in that their great-grandfathers were brothers. The two sides of the family had a falling out many years ago and the Bergfalk's and the Kaarmann's have been feuding for near on a century now, though to be honest, no one can really remember the reason why. Today however, the two feuding families have been brought closer than ever with the marriage of Duke Heinrich to Lady Eleonore, younger sister of Queen Hedwig!
When it was known that King Wolfgang had choosen their father, his trusted military adviser, to provide a wife for the future king Eleonore had hoped that her father would choose her. Eleonore, though Hedwig's younger sister, was well known to be the more beautiful and charming of the two sisters. Not only that, but she was secretly already in love with Walter whom she'd known since childhood. However, her father decreed that it was only fair that the elder sister be Queen, thus Hedwig married the man Eleonore loved... Eleonore has been married to Duke Heinrich in hope that he and King Walter being married to sisters whom are very close to each other would finally end the fued between the Bergfalk's and the Kaarmann's.
Eleonore is now living in Heinrich's estate near the border of Bial and Switzerland. Eleonore is still getting to know her new husband and fufils her role as the dutiful wife as is expected of her, but truthfully she dislikes Heinrich strongly and is still very much in love with her brother-in-law, the King.

I'm glad :) Only question that remains is whether King Walter was disappointed when Hedwig was the sister choosen? Or is Eleonore's love for Walter unrequited?

King Walter was extremely disappointed that Hedwig was chosen over Eleonore. However Walters duty has King once again has caused him heartache and he looks for Elenore in Hedwig. Walter does not like Eleonores husband so he keeps trying to convince Hedwig to take Eleonore has a lady in waiting. Perhaps Hedwig suspects the feelings the two have for each other

Because Hedwig & Eleonore are close I would say that it is likely that Hedwig is pretty sure she knows that her sister and her husband are in love, but duty is duty... Eleonore may end up spending a lot of time at the royal palace 'visiting' her sister however as she does not like her husband so would happily grasp the oppurtunity to be away as often as possible.
