In the Empire of YarrowR5 - The Countesses’ father had died and the new king, his brother-heir, blamed the king’s death on Empress Faustina as her revenge for her nieces. He provoked her into being a witch and swore to kill her and the empirical family of Yarrow thus letting him be the new ruler of the land. He sent spies and soldiers as a distraction to first snuff out the family but young Crowned Princess Adela intercepted and was able to warn the sleeping family just in time. She herself, though, sustained severe injuries as she herself fled after her family. The soldiers left her for dead while her parents and siblings found safety in the countryside. She was retrieved by Yarrow’s own soldiers once they suppressed the attack and sent her to her awaiting family. It took many months for her to heal. Emperor Hugo, aghast and angry and the attempted siege, immediately called his troops to arm and in four years time suppressed the Countesses’ uncle’s attempts. Shortly after the Emperor’s return home from the “Battle of the Lilies” (as it was known for peace was to be won again), Faustina found herself pregnant and to nobody’s surprise. She struggled once again as she did with Adela during this pregnancy. She delivered too early and the two babes she gave birth to were weak and were not expected to survive. R6 – Four months passed and Faustina found herself again pregnant. The physicians advocated a termination but the Empress refused. Hugo begged and pleaded with her to rid herself of the child, fearing for her health as she was too exhausted and weak to even leave her bed. A few short months later, Emperor Hugo has a stroke that leaves him partially paralyzed and unable to effectively care for himself alone. While trying to care for her weakened husband in her already weakened condition, Faustina goes into early labor and the deformed babe does not survive the week. The people of Yarrow and the House of Cerise are concerned. The Emperor and Empress are both ill and though the Empress will hopefully recover the Emperor will not. Hugo’s advisors discuss the possibility of making Adela, Hugo’s eldest child, the new ruler of Yarrow. “Sire, Her Highness Adela is of a good age for engagement. It would be best to find her a suiter,” they heavily advised, again hungry for the continued strength of Yarrow. A few weeks after Adela’s engagement to the Archduke of Odo, Hugo passes away in his sleep. Faustina steps in as dowager for Yarrow until her daughter and her husband consummate their marriage and begin her rule when she turns 18.
