Four long years went by without interruption by royal birth or any overt scandel to talk of--at least nothing definate. There were rumors, of course, that the Princess Magdalena and her husband the Venetian Duke/Prince were not at court as often as they were used to, performing most of her duties as princess from her estate, and that the king was distracted, and that Prince Joseph was said to be spending all his time with his family and neglecting his duties as prince. It was rumored that the drunken Duke of Bergfalk had fallen out of favor with the king as well, and that he was often sent away from the palace in disgrace for various reasons (it was said he tried to force himself on a woman of the royal circle, sometimes said to be Princess Magdalena or even the good Queen herself!) Only Princess Adelheid, far away in France, was not talked of, except with the usual pity. She was becoming quite the tragic figure, the princess married off as a child to the hideous and much-older Dauphin. People who heard of it were glad when the king decided to send Princess Magdalena and Prince Joseph to France as envoys; most thought he was merely doing it out of kindness, giving his youngest sister the company of family for a while. Some, however, said it was a gesture to once again keep the French pacified, and that there had been threats of war again. Of all the rumors flying about, no one is really sure what to believe, and the ordinary folk don't much care as long as they do not feel the effects. There was the usual celebration when the royal family all produced children again, two of them havign twins, showing that the rumors still have not truly damaged the image of the royal family.
