Anthony
LN: von Saxewald
DH: Adelmar Emmerich Vulferam (37)
DW: Swanahilda Godeliva (17)
-DD: Rosmunda Godeliva (2)
-DD: Hadewig Lisbeth
Rank: Count & Countess (Nobility)
Count Adelmar, in his role as an officer of the highest rank and distinction was charged by King Walter to accompany his mother, Dowager Queen Elizabeth on her trip home to England. While in England Adelmar indulged himself in the traditional military fashion, drinking and womanizing. He took a particular fancy to a young English lady of rank, Mary James. She played hard to get, but once she had been able to secure a position in the Dowager's personal court thru Adelmar's influence, she gave in to him.
Meanwhile, back at home in the family seat of Saxewald, Swanahilda, now a much more confident woman and mother found herself pregnant once more. She knew that she needed to bear a son for her husband to help secure the succession of the family's holdings, least some unscrupulous noble's try wed her daughter Rosmunda, or Rosa as she is affectionately called, at a young age, much as her cousin-husband had done to her.
Much to her dismay she would have to write to Adelmar and tell him of the birth of their second daughter, Hadewig Lisbeth, named for the current Queen, Hedwig, and her Dowager Mother-in-law. Swanahilda explained in the letter to Adelmar that she felt it would help endear the family even more so to the Royal Family, especially since Adelmar has often voiced his opposition to the marital alliance with the hated French.
Upon bringing the Dowager Queen safely home, Adelmar tried to pursue his dalliance with Mary James. She even suggested a nice young officer, Ralf von Schwarz for her to wed, knowing full well that Ralf had no interest in women but if he wished his career to advance he needed to appear to be a strong masculine figure.
Elizabeth eventually discovered that Mary was having an affair with Adelmar and that she was indeed pregnant... However to spare Swanahilda the embarrassment of finding out her husband was cheating on her, Charlotte concocted the story of the young servant as a way to shame Mary James and to save face of Countess Swanahilda.

The Dowager Queen's name is Elizabeth, not Charlotte.
