House of Montague
DH [32] King George Alistair of England, House of Montague
DW [30] Queen Lucy Beatrice of England, House of Fairchild
DS [12] Prince Edmund Frederick of England
DS [4] Prince James Constantine of England
- DFiancée [6 months]: Princess Agnes of France
***
Four years ago, the Queen has given birth to another son - Prince James. A few weeks ago, King Louis VII of France proposed a royal marriage between James and his infant daughter, Agnes. The offer was readily accepted, since the King was eager to make an alliance with France - his father was at war with the country, and it cost England a lot of money!
The King enjoys the Queen's company, but sees her more as a friend that his wife. He has had several mistresses, much to Lucy's dismay. It was only when Prince Edmund went through a bad bout of pneumonia aged 8 that she managed to convince her husband to produce another heir.
Since the queen has a lot of time on her hands, she has taken to the arts. Inviting actors to perform at the royal castle caused scandal at first, but the people grew accustomed to it. The King doesn't mind his wife watching a morality play every month or so, as long as she joins him while hunting, and doesn't complain too much about Nell, Jill, or whatever else his new mistress's name was.
Young James is the exact opposite of his brother. While Edmund is quiet, serious and studious, James is an enthusiastic young boy who has already befriended many servants. However, he hasn't been doing well in his studies, so far - luckily, he won't be king!
