Of the House of Medici, of the duchy of Urbino.
Three years later, Urbino has re-stabilised into the peaceful place it once was. Slowly things began to climb back to prosperity, with the artists and scientists returning to their former home. Romolo, as usual, was eager to bury the traces of war and replenishing that which was depleted, returning the city to its previous glory. Lucrezia, by now, is much less interested in partying than when she first arrived as a teenage girl - with six children already and one miscarriage, it was a wonder she was still this active!
In the years of prosperity, Lucrezia got pregnant again. She and Romolo decided it would be their last child (hopefully), since seven seemed to be quite enough for them! The pregnancy went smoothly - that is, until the seventh month. Before the eighth month even began, Lucrezia felt the pangs of childbirth - the child is coming, and fast! The birth was a lot earlier than expected, and the baby was tiny and blue - Lucrezia feared that it was stillborn, and cried her eyes out at the sight. Fearful for the safety of both his daughter and his wife, Romolo called out for the best of physicians to come immediately. It was fortunate that Urbino had returned to its position as centre of the arts and sciences, since it guaranteed a large amount of skilled physicians to come to their rulers' aid! After a very terrifying wait, the doctors emerged with the newborn daughter, wailing in a low tone and hands waving everywhere. The child was weak, but it was alive.
In merit of the daughter's almost miraculous birth, Romolo and Lucrezia decided to name her Speranza - the Italian word for "hope". Her middle names, Caterina and Franceschina, honoured one of Lucrezia's closest friends and the doctor which saved the child's life.
