King Owain continues to rule, though there are rumors that he is unwell, and that Prince John is making preparations to take the throne. Prince John publicly denies the rumors, but some doubt his sincerity. Meanwhile, he and Countess Isla have two young children--the first, a daughter, Princess Aida, and a son, Prince Theo. Prince Adam and Princess Aida have been quietly raising their twin boys, Princes Gabriel and Nicolas. They spend most of their time in Spain, where Aida is a trusted member of the Spanish court. Countess Margaret and Count James just welcomed their second son, young Count Wyn, adored by his elder brother, Count Elias. Princess Katherine, to everyone's shock, did not accept engagement to a young Baron at the age of sixteen, and has steadfastly refused further attempts at engagement since that time. The people have mostly given up hope that she will ever marry, but do all agree that she is a very bright girl and that the King benefits from her remaining single and at home.
