Re: LaRe's KUY Royal Congrats: Round 4
King: Farin, son of Frár
King: Ibûn, son of TorbûnAdopted son: Tyr
Crown princess: Eira
Prince: Einar
Princess/Prince: Freya / IkerOf the illustrious Royal House of: Durin
In the Kingdom of: EreborFarin has ordered that more new recruits be trained for the army. Most young men and women who have just finished their education go to military school immediately. Others go into diplomacy; Ibûn thought it handy to have some eloquent young people who know how to communicate well. The mountain is also preparing to be more self-sufficient, providing a real boost of scientists and craftsmen and -women. At the same time Farin and Ibûn are trying not to seem too hostile to the other kingdom; they even considered getting their new surrogate mother from there, but then a young lady who has been banned from a far-away kingdom for being pregnant out of wedlock enters the mountain. They decide to host her, as she's no money for a room of her own. When she gives birth they want to co-parent; the mother, Vígdís, now lives in the royal quarters with them. She's exceptionally bright and used to sit at the military strategy table with her father, who was top army commander in her kingdom, so she helps the kings take precautions for the war. New chambers are built, deep into the mountain, behind the royal quarters, with tunnels connecting to Dale in case they need to flee there. For now, they keep the rebellious little Tyr in there to hide him from the citizens.
