Monarch: Ciprian Juris Leighton Adelino Xavia
Consort: Dariena Lys [Airelen] Xavia
S: Crispyn Leamon Domenick Xavia
D: Vyvienne Yevgenia Iseult Xavia
S: Sylviu Ioan Mácsemilian Xavia
Ioncu was zooming Vyvienne around the room and listening to the sounds of her squealing as Dariena marked up another page of name ideas and scribbled them out again one by one."It's unsettling," she commented. "They're just worried."Ioncu stopped and held the little girl on his hip. He fixed Dariena with a serious expression before saying, "I swear to you. I wouldn't do anything to jeopardize you or your position. Am I discontent here? Yes, you know I am. Would I do something to put you or your family in danger? No. Absolutely not."Dariena looked at her older brother. Ioncu had been upset for years. She couldn't remember a time when he was truly happy since before their parents died. He had always felt jaded or malcontent with something. But since Vyvienne's birth he had mellowed out a bit. He loved her and his anger had dissipated in the days since she started to visit him regularly.Ioncu put Vyvienne back on her feet and pulled out a chair adjacent to his sister. He flipped it around backwards, straddling it to sit down. “Your Highness,” Dariena said with a smirk as she took note of the position. “Don’t make fun,” Ioncu retorted. “I’m a prisoner. There is no call to impress. I sit however I want.”“I wasn’t making fun of you. I wouldn’t,” Dariena replied more sympathetically. “But you’re doing better now. You aren’t groundskeeping.”They had allowed him a house within the perimeters of Bruna Castle's large, stone walls. Dariena had asked for it and Ciprian had granted it be built how she pleased. She chose something reminiscent of their former home- a villa-like little place with a parlor, bedroom, kitchen, washroom, and a veranda. It wasn’t the luxury he had been used to when he was a Prince of Veraseng, but it wasn’t the same way he had been treated when he first came to Bejagat either.

Queen: Soora WolfriverSon?: Rankin Icefrost
Crown Princess: Enola Wolffern
Prince: Efren BlackriverOf the illustrious Royal House of: Ayen
In the Kingdom of: TavaraenAfter the ordeal of losing one child and almost losing another, Soora and Airdan were nervous about having another baby. Everything went fine, though.A few weeks after Efren's birth, a messenger from the northern city Keenor arrived at Ayen. The messenger brought news of vampire scouts coming south over the mountains. One thousand years ago a similar event had caused panic in the north. At that time, however, the vampires had seemed to decide that the southlands weren't worth it as they went back to their home not long after their arrival.According to the residents of Keenor, this time seemed different. The messenger says that the scouts have been around for longer than they stayed the last time and were showing no signs of leaving when he set off to warn the other cities. Despite this, Airdan is fairly unconcerned about war. He believes that the northern cities are just panicking again and that there isn't much of a serious threat. The rest of the kingdom generally agrees with him, seeing no reason to fear an army they have never seen and that went away peacefully the last time it came south.

Crown Prince Tristan Aitor Mattin Idrisof the illustrious Royal House of Argall-Jasso
in the Kingdom of EgremontA year following the birth of their daughter, King Cadfael and Queen Naiara welcomed a son -- Tristan, Crown Prince of Egremont. The kingdom exulted at the arrival of the royal heir, but the joyous occasion was tempered by rumors that old Guillem Vilaro was rallying his followers and planning a revolt against the crown. Lord Vilaro had never forgiven Cadfael for rejecting his daughter Remei in favor of Naiara, nor for turning his back on the alliance to topple Jasso rule. At first, Cadfael dismissed the rumors as the foolish ramblings of an old, dying man -- until a Vilaro scout was captured on the road to an outlying town known for harboring mercenaries. The scout was carrying an offer, signed by Guillem Vilaro and all his sons, to pay handsomely if the mercenaries would join in the fight against the king. Incensed, Cadfael immediately summoned all of his bannermen and told his kingdom to prepare for yet another war.

Monarch: Beatrice Antonia Estelle
Consort: Tarquin Alexius TenleyWard: Edmund TaggartPrincess: Theodora Rosalind Valeria
Prince: Hector Magnus BenedictOf the illustrious Royal House of: Lyon
In the Kingdom of: YbernThough many were nervous as Beatrice's second pregnancy progressed, all were relieved when it went without incident. This assuaged many lingering fears over the future of the royal family. There has been pressure to name the young Hector Crown Prince, but Beatrice still leans toward Theodora. It doesn't seem like she and the council will come to an accord any time soon - especially with other matters soon coming to the forefront.Though she does her best to conceal it, Beatrice is terrified. She does not feel prepared to handle a war. Tarquin, however, has a far more 'gung ho' attitude. Between the two of them, they are working to see that the people aren't panicking but that the kingdom is prepared.

Prince: Hektor Gregorios Bao "Tory"Of the illustrious Royal House of: Jiang
In the Empire of: Lai ShiPrincess Consort Gemina's pregnancy goes smoothly, and the royal couple welcome their second child, Prince Hektor Gregorios Bao. Little Tory is doing well right from the beginning, and is often glimpsed about the palace carried by Gem in a sling. Leia and Niko are excited about their new little brother, and Demi is both proud and relieved by how well things are going after how badly they went last time.Sadly, not all is easy, as rumours of impending war begin to reach them. Apparently many in Raya's kingdom blame Empress Demeter for Raya's death! Demi consults with her advisers, hoping to find a diplomatic solution, but of course also strengthens border defenses. The people of Lai Shi are buoyed by joyous news of the new prince and at the same time both reassured and somewhat worried by increased military patrols and frequent calls for new recruits.

King: Farin, son of Frár
King: Ibûn, son of TorbûnAdopted son: Tyr
Crown princess: Eira
Prince: EinarOf the illustrious Royal House of: Durin
In the Kingdom of: EreborFarin doesn't wory much about the war. He'll cross that bridge when he comes to it, he thinks. Ibûn is quite the opposite; he's always prepared for the worst. He's managed to convince Farin there is a very large change that there might actually be a war, so they've started to make plans; mobilise the army, think about their children etc. They're planning to take Eira and Einar to their mother. Tyr is only very young and is not accustomed to many people outside the royal quarters, since he's not been outside that part of the mountain much, so he must stay with them, hidden away even more. But Tyr is a very rebellious toddler and he's already come close to escaping the royal quarters by himself. They're worried about how they're going to manage were there to actually be a war.
Meanwhile, their young son is doing very well. He is Eira's half-brother, sharing their mother.

But soon the joy is overshadowed by a rumour that an enemy soon will attack Sweden och declare war! Johan take this new calmly, but with great seriousness. Because most of the time rumors are just rumors, but you can never be too careful.The people are concerned, but belive their King when he says it's nothing to worry for the time being.

Of the illustrious Royal House of: Romelli
In the Kingdom of: GretaliaWhen Katerina got pregnant again everyone was worried about her and the baby's health. Thankfully, everything went smoothly this time and crown prince Leonardo was born exactly on his due date. Before he was born, Nicolas and Katerina couldn't agree on a name. Nicolas wanted to name him Julius, and Katerina wanted Leonardo. For the first couple of hours, he was crown prince Julius. It never felt right for Katerina though, and Nicolas agreed to name him Leonardo instead. Only a few weeks after Leonardo's birth, Nicolas was told that an old enemy planned a war against them. Nicolas immediately took action so this wouldn't happen. However, he is not sure that he was fast enough...

Daughter: Crown Princess Lovisa FREDRIKA Maria Theodora of Sweden
Son: Prince MAGNUS Vilhelm Gustaf Henrik of SwedenOf the illustrious Royal House of: Bernadotte
In the Kingdom of: SwedenWhen little Magnus joined the family you could hear a collective breath of relief, the baby boy arriving all healthy after a relatively easy birth. For the first weeks the royal parents as well as his older siblings were floating on cloud no.9 following the birth of the newest member of their family. Unfortunately this didn't last for too long, shortly after little Magnus turned one month old the rumors began to spread over the kingdom, Peter's father and the rest of Ribbing family were preparing a revolt, apparently with little to no chances of establishing the Royal House of Ribbing they planned to overthrow the monarchy and establish Sweden as a republic.The news upset Lovisa and Peter tremendously, but after just a few short weeks it was clear that the support of the plans of Ribbing family among the nation was little to none. The whole nation breathing out in relief, until the next ruse from the Ribbing family will come.

DD: Princess Margaret Elizabeth Claudia Jane
DS: Prince Timothy Alistair Itzotz Alexander Of the illustrious Royal House of: Windsor
In the Kingdom of: the United Kingdom and other Intragalactic RealmsPrince Timothy's name caused quite a stir, as it is the first name to honor a person not of the planet Earth-- the Grand High Lrrmoor of Olio, Itzotz. Of course, this time the press didn't have much page space to put that on, what with the threats of revolution on Yorick IV and all. If it's not one Intragalactic Realm it's another. Seeing as she's an alien and has the wherewithal for conspiracy, Queen Tegwen's loyalties were called into question. It soon became clear that she would not be a problem when Olio's ninth moon Begfeigh was destroyed by a Yorick IV warship. Now, both planets prepare for war against their joint enemy...Yeesh, Tiny Tim sure is the bearer of bad news in these parts!

MinePrince: Michele Rinieri Lorenzo
Wife: Caterina Maria AnnunziataDS: Pietro Cristofano [Tancredi] "Perotto"
DD: Giovanna Maria Elisabetta "Vanozza"
DS: Leonardo Giancarlo LucaOf the illustrious Royal House of: Manco
In the City-State of: Salvi
When Caterina cautiously approached her husband and told him that she was expecting, it was all Michele could do to hide his nervousness. But fortunately, this pregnancy was a surprisingly easy one, and both Caterina and the child she was carrying experienced no problems or complications. It was a tremendous relief for Michele, as he was positively swamped by pressing business left and right. Vico had recently returned from a border skirmish, and he brought with him reports from the east. There were rumours that the neighbouring city-state of Tellino was planning to wage war, and Vico feared that it would be against their hometown.It was during one of these hushed conversations with his brother that Michele was interrupted by a breathless Perotto. Caterina was starting to go into labour, and Perotto, panicking, ran to his Pappa for help. Michele immediately went to attend to his wife, while Vico fetched the midwife and grabbed a doctor along the way as well, just in case. When the boy was born, wailing and healthy, Michele had wanted to name him after Vico, but Vico declined, asking instead that the child be named after a friend of his who had recently succumbed to consumption, Leonardo Scierra.Palazzo Manco rejoiced over young Leonardo's birth, but alas, there is no rest for the wicked. Within the same month, Giacomo Grazia, one of Vico's fellow condottieri stopped by on his way from Tellino and brought with him an unhappy dose of bad news. Apparently, the Doge of Tellino was searching for people to fight his war for him, and Giacomo had come to meet him. But when he found out that the war was to be held against Salvi, he declined the offer and set off to find another employer. While Michele had not known Giacomo for long and had little reason to believe his tidings, Vico and Giacomo were once fellow mercenaries under Leonardo Scierra's leadership and had repeatedly put their lives into each other's hands in the heat of battle. Vico persuaded his brother to hire him to defend their city for when Tellino would wage their attack, and Michele agreed, asking that both men also discreetly spread word for other condottieri to come to Salvi where work awaits them.
