Deceased/Dowager King: Augustijn Michel Cornelis Eduard (48)
Deceased/Dowager Queen: Sofie Katrijn Beatrix Maud (44)
King: Leopold Andreas Johannes Rafael [21]
Queen: Adelais Katrien Lucia Victoria [18]
Princess: Theresia Jutte Cornelia Mathilde, "Thera" [nb] From the Royal House of: Whitelake
In the Kingdom of: Caranenth
Queen Adelais and King Leopold were definitely adjusting well to their new roles as rulers of Caranenth, when they received some pleasant news a few months after their wedding. The news was that they would become parents barely a year after taking charge of the Kingdom. The young couple and their families were incredibly excited for the new arrival to come. Adelais kept working at her queenly duties until later in her pregnancy, at the behest of the royal doctor. She was advised to keep a close eye on how she was feeling, to eat healthy, and to rest in the last few months as much as possible.Over the pregnancy, Adelais barely had any sickness and kept following the advice of the doctor. Leopold made sure to keep the kitchen staff on call should his love desire any special foods. He also made sure that the farmers near Whitelake Castle were well compensated to provide a stock of fresh fruits and vegetables for healthful meals. This gave the farmers a chance to see that though they were not of noble class, they were still treated just as well as any other citizen of Caranenth. They helped spread the word that Queen Adelais and King Leopold were fair and gracious rulers.Eleven months after the wedding, Adelais went into labor. About 10 hours later, Caranenth had a healthy new little princess. The baby was named Theresia Jutte Cornelia Mathilde. Theresia and Jutte honored Adelais and Leopold's paternal grandmothers, while Cornelia was from Adelais's father and Mathilde from her mother. The newborn princess, to be called Thera in familiar settings, was born with a light blond-brown mix of hair that combined her parent's colorings. It is unknown whether her eyes will remain the typical blue of newborns or grow darker and brown like her father's. Excited to be a mother, Adelais has been doting on Thera as much as is possible. She took a month after the birth to solely care for her little girl while letting Leopold take charge of most mundane matters in Caranenth. After returning to her duties, she decided she wished to wait a litle while before having another child. Balancing the two roles as mother and Queen was not difficult, especially with her family to support her, but it was new. Leopold, understanding his wife's feelings, took them to heart. There would be plenty of time for more children. He did not want Adelais to get overworked. Adelais's parents, Augustijn and Sofie, had done something similar after the birth of the young Queen's oldest sibling and everything had worked out well.Pictures of Thera:
