The family was shaken this year when they discovered poor Fränze had been taken advantage of by her art tutor. She became very ill whilst pregnant, and eventually withdrew to her sickbed, where the doctors could save neither herself nor her unborn child. The tutor has been executed and Fränze's paintings, which had previously decorated Poldi's nursery, have been covered with black curtains.

Sadly, Beatrix passed away this year. The distraught Clemens has decided to retire from public life, and has asked Wendelin to take the throne and to raise Poldi until he is old enough to become König himself. Wendelin tried to persuade his brother against abdicating, but was unsuccessful, and so Poldi has been taken into Wendelin and Viktoria's home.

[12] Lilie, Erstes Pferd von Preußen (white horse, white mane)
Viktoria had identical twin girls this year! Wendelin is adjusting well to the pressure of being König - he is a calm and intelligent man, despite his shyness. However, the popularity of the royal family has fallen drastically - the people believe Poldi should have succeeded to the throne immediately, and dislike Wendelin's reluctance to appear at public events, preferring to concern himself with the affairs of state. Viktoria busies herself with the children and her beloved Lilie, whilst Poldi shadows his uncle so as to learn about the ways of governance.

Sadly, Heinrike passed away this year. Wendelin and Viktoria are grief-wracked and guilt-ridden - in their fears over Oskar, they never thought to make an examination of poor Heinrike's health. It seems that the spinal disease was not a gendered curse after all, and simply a genetic condition that the couple's descendants will consistently be at risk of.

Though Poldi is old enough now to take the throne, he has requested that Wendelin continue his duties until Poldi has found a suitable marriage, as he wishes to learn more about the science of politics before he becomes König.

The people were not content with Poldi's hesitance at taking the throne, and Wendelin was deposed and executed. Viktoria fled with her children, leaving the seventeen-year-old Poldi to manage the kingdom alone. Needless to say, he is terrified, lonely and insecure. His popularity, however, nears that of his father's - the people have spoken, and they are content with their decision. And, as Poldi begins his rule, he quickly realizes that he is suited to being a König.

This year, Poldi fell deeply in love with a young Gräfin, Silke, despite her low status, and they were married at once. She is a mild-mannered, polite and selfless woman, the perfect companion to Poldi, whose grief has led him to become hard and self-sufficient. It was she who convinced Poldi not to act rashly when the King of England died, leaving behind only an infant heir.

When bright-eyed Imke was born, Poldi was at first dismayed that Silke had not produced an heir. However, he knows there is much more time for he and Silke to secure Prussia's future. For now, he focusses on the people that he must serve, and spends as much time as possible with his beloved wife and their new daughter.
