HelpAnother Kingdom Congrats Round 2
Two years have passed since the arrival of envoys and the birth of Princess Chloe, and things are still going fairly well. The nearby kingdoms are all tentatively accepting to Kriana, with Lethia and Dakla both having become strong allies. The Krianan economy is picking up as a result of foreign trade being established. The queen has leant some support to several expeditions to establish relationships with countries farther across the Lari Ocean, and recently two of those voyages have returned laden with foreign goods and people sent by foreign courts to meet the queen of the new kingdom. This caused quite a stir in Fairlin, the royal port city, but not as much as the recent announcement of the impending birth of the queen's second child. A healthy line rich with potential heirs is seen as a very good sign that Kriana will succeed by many.
How has the new trade and arrival of far-foreign influence affected your family? How have they been doing in this new kingdom? How are they are dealing with a new addition to their family?
Rules:
1. No more than three rounds missed period.
2. Ages are required. I'll keep up with them.
3. Please respond to each prompt. Even if it's only a few lines, it helps those who want to write longer stories to know what is going on with other characters. That being said, if you are part of a family or connected to another player, make sure you read what they post before you so your stories don't contradict.

-DD: Isadora Letitia "Dora" (2)
-DS: Silvio Valentine (nb)
Status: Low commoner (werewolf / mage)
In two years' time, the newly-formed Kingdom of Kriana has stabilised, something that the Magro family appreciate greatly. With less threats of impending doom and war, Lavinia is able to finally relax and just enjoy her existence as a wife and mother (while many Krianian women have preferred to keep their occupations after marriage, young Lavinia never was particularly confident in her magical abilities and very much enjoyed simply being a mother). Romolo has managed to keep the family getting by, if only in a simple life, by doing odd jobs and tasks. It was still difficult to get permanent or semi-permanent employment as a werewolf, but sometimes tasks had to be done, and Romolo was always willing to lend a hand.
In a while, it became obvious that Lavinia is expecting another child. The pregnancy was not, however, as smooth as Dora's, as the child within seemed to be more tempestuous than his sister, and even more alarming was when the child was delivered earlier than supposed. The boy was born relatively healthy, if a bit faster than expected. Lavinia was excited to have another child, but Romolo was inwardly worried, knowing that it was a given that the boy will grow up to be a werewolf like him. Romolo was afraid that Silvio would have to face the hardships and discrimination associated with lycanthropy, and he knew that if he wanted his children to have a happier life, he would have to ask for help - somehow.

Must be the next coming of the arch-mage. Ridley was born a few days ago and is doing well. He has no magical ability what so ever according to Calliope. This is a good omen as the last arch-mage, Luna Goodwin's younger siblings had no magical ability. The port is going to be a great asset to Kriana.

Status: nobility / magical
Much has happened in the two years since Kalli's birth. Coral to continues to grow stronger and comfortable with her abilities and sights. Coral saw Lysander coming before she even conceived him.
Magnus is still very busy with all the trade and sea operations going on. He has however enjoyed the added income. He has refurbished their home and added an indoor pool for bathing that has a small fountain. Both Coral and Kalli are particularly fond of this bath. Magnus was rejoyced at the birth of a male heir.
Lysander is a very large baby boy who is happy and healthy. He looks much more like his father and shows little magical ability. He has one purple eye and one blue. Lysanders abilities are muted it seems from the large portion of his fathers DNA that is dominant.
Kalli loves her baby brother and is particularly fond of making his mobile spin or the fountain squirt bubbles.
With the trade moving closer and closer to the Isle of Apple there have been rumors and sightings of the Nozgain among the Kriana people. No one is sure of what they Nozgain are doing only that they disturb and cause harm to many. Coral is still under her human cover and no one even suspects that she is the priestess of the Nain. She hopes all stays the same but she knows that it is a dream not a reality.

It has been a busy two years for Hermione, William, and little Athena. Shortly after Athena's birth, Hermione resumed her magical training in earnest, determined to become to wield her power with the greatest efficiency and skill possible. Around her first birthday, Athena began to exhibit signs of magical ability. Though she is still too young to train, Hermione is overjoyed to have another mage in the family and is joyfully brainstorming lessons for her daughter in the future.
Hermione and William have grown very close in the past few years, adjusting to each other and learning about their personality in a way that their hectic first year of marriage did not allow. Hermione had begun to feel she had fallen in love with him as she watched his eyes sparkle as he watched their daughter. Soon she began to notice that the sparkle was appearing for herself as well, and the couple admitted their love to one another for the first time.

Lady Paiva became pregnant only months into her marriage with Aneirin, and she was blessed with a smooth pregnancy free of complication. She gave birth to a healthy son who she called Viljami, for that had been the name of her brother. Neirin gave the name Rhys as the middle name of their child, for that was the name of his own father. He was a dark-haired, quiet child, much like his mother, but in all other ways he shared the friendly nature of his father. Neirin couldn't wait to introduce his family to his son, but Paiva demanded peace and solitude in the early days of Viljami's life, so he respected her wishes until mother and child settled into a routine.
The start of Queen Minerva's reign filled Neirin with hope that Kriana could recover after the devastating War of Rebellion. He eagerly awaited the arrival of the envoys, knowing that trade relations would help revive the country's economy. Paiva held a less optimistic outlook. She had doubts about the abilities of the young queen, and feared that others would take advantage of her inexperience.

Paiva and Neirin were surprised how much Viljami had grown in the years since his birth.

Status: Royal Family (Sister and brother-in-law to the Queen)
Ari and Nicholas have been very busy since Ione was born. The young couple have been very involved in the new foreign trade, often traveling to Lethia and Dakla, Ione in tow. The two cannot bear to be parted from their lovely little daughter, so they take her everywhere with them. Despite the warnings of both of their mothers, Ione loves to travel, and is a welcome sight at the courts of Dakla and Lethia. Her promise of beauty is beginning to blossom. She greatly resembles her mother, with her dark brown hair, violet eyes, and smooth complexion. She actually looks quite like her cousin Nerissa, though she is somewhat darker in complexion; not surprising, since Ari and Demetrius look quite alike as well. The four cousins are all actually quite close and love to play together. Alexandra has been spending a lot more time around her sisters-in-law than usual and seems to be making an effort, though all three are still appalled at her treatment of the servants. Ari, as the unofficial court peacemaker, has mediated many arguments that almost came to blows between her volatile sister-in-law and some long-suffering servant. Nerissa, thankfully, has inherited Demetrius's relaxed temperment, and with her aunts and newly-motivated father they all hope Alexandra's influence on her temper can be kept to a minimum.

Status: Royal Family (Brother and Sister-in-Law to the Queen)
In the two years since Nerissa's birth, Demetrius has found himself completely pleased with his life. The recent increase in foreign activity has been extremely beneficial to both Demetrius and Alexandra. As Demetrius slowly showed his sisters he could handle responsibility, he's been given more important tasks. Alexandra has been occupied with taking care of Nerissa, except of course for her weekly parties. However, it seemed that giving birth to her daughter had opened up a soft spot in Alexandra. Even though she knew they would probably never be extremely close, Alexandra has tried being nicer to her sisters-in-law. She often took Nerissa to visit with her cousins and in doing so, realized that the relationships between herself and her brother's family weren't completely hopeless.
Despite all this, Alexandra's sense of superiority mixed in with the confidence of new motherhood raised her cruelty toward the servants, especially when it came to her precious daughter.
