-DD: Rosmunda Godeliva (3)
-DD: Hadewig Lisbeth (1)
-DD: Odila Swanahilda
Rank: Count & Countess (Nobility)For the von Saxewald family it was a tragic year, as the avalanche that occurred was within the bounds of Adelmar's county and in fact nearly destroyed the village of Urgsbruck, a centre for winemaking, on which Adelmar collected a handsome tax revenue.Now Adelmar would have a heavily reduced income, and to make matters worst due to the scandal caused at court last year due to Adelmar's philandering, King Walter ordered the much of the charity required to help the villagers would have to come from Adelmar's pocket.During this time Swanahilda found herself with child again. While she had prayed continually for a boy child to please her husband, she suspected she was carrying yet another girl. All the signs pointed to it, but all she had was hope that the much wanted male heir would be born.And it was that another female was born to them...Odila Swanahilda. Swanahilda was over the moon with the birth of Odila, as the child looked stronger like herself and reminded her of her half-sister Odila who unfortunately passed in the avalanche. This birth just was a further disappointment for Adelmar was and he began to slip into a mood of darkness, was if a black cloud hung over him. Adelmar decided to go on a retreat to a hunting lodge in the East, hoping that killing wild beast and the possibility for some womanizing would lift his spirit.
