What a lot has happened in Grunewald over the last decade. Ten years ago, just months after the long awaited marriage of King Friedrich (Freddie to his friends) and Ariana, Duchess of Valensky, the couple recieved some tragic news. Ariana's father, Lord Harold, Duke of Valensky, had been killed in a Fencing accident. And to make matters worse, he had died without producing a male heir, or indeed any other child apart from Ariana.
Dark times. Valensky's neighbouring countries were all-but ready to battle it out for the sovereignty when news came from Grunewald: Ariana was expecting a child. Now the Generals of the foreign armies scratched their heads in the way that only army Generals can and decided in the spirit fairness to wait until the birth of the child before going into battle. If the child was a boy he would rule with the 'help' of a colation government made up of the other countries leaders, until he was old enough to manage on his own. If it was a girl they would fight. SO the hopes of two nations rested upon the shoulders of Queen Ariana and her unborn child.
So, as if it wasn't enough for John Patrick Thomas von Daalen to be born a Crown Prince, he was also born a ruler of his own tiny nation.... But he is a fine boy and much beloved by the people of both countries.
The following seven years brought the births of three Princesses, as well as another Prince. Marie, Arthur, Sophie and Isabella, while often jealous of their elder brother's joint role (let's face it, how many children get the opportunity to cry out 'Mum, it's not fair! How come HE gets to rule his own country!), are growing stronger by the day, and Grunewald looks forward to an expanding royal family!
