Jutte Lehrer's birth was a bit more tumultous than that of her older siblings. Elma had gave birth the exact same day as Princess Magdalena, and most of the physicians were concentrated on the royal child. At the end, she had to give birth with the help of some of her fellow maids and her Severin. When the girl was finally born, Elma asked Severin that she be named after a saint, to follow her siblings' naming pattern (one which had, so far, been entirely coincidental). Severin was too relieved his wife was well to object, and thus the girl was named Jutte Christiane, after the Biblical Judith and after one of the handmaids, Elma's friend Christiane.
However, whispers of scandals erupt fast in the servants' quarters, and news reached Elma that King Walter and Duchess Elenore were having an affair! As much as Elma won't believe it, Severin had to admit that it was possible. He had seen, during his hours reading and contemplating, the King and the Duchess conversing. It was always that - conversations, laughter, and nothing more - but Severin knew that the deepest of lovers can seem to behave as anyone else.
