"You would think they'd be all over my son..."

I looked up at Jorne and laughed, "You saw how they were when Cecelia was born."

Jorne looked back at me and then sat closer, "There was a time when what I have now seemed something that I thought that I'd never have."

I stared at Jorne and looked back too. The time I didn't let him into my heart, the time that I was looking for my father. Wow, that felt so very long ago now...

So long ago...

I even remember a time that I was scared to get pregnant!

What kind of torture did I give to my husband!

My idea of birth is scary but now that I had given birth before, gaining my own child because of that pain, I felt like it was worth it...

His hand placed a piece of my hair away from my eyes and I smiled.

It had been the first day of coming outside, since giving birth to Magnus, and it was very nice!

I have no time to think of how life used to be at all!

I am full...Well I'm busy and happy and well, life is really full!

Malory and Kael had been staying in the capital here for a long time now, having already gone south and returned. Our relationship has become so close that we see each other often, like that of sisters, and our little ones often play together. It was the opposite with them, as they now had a girl, having Jordan first. As we had a girl first, a boy after. Actually, it is a bit interesting as the two eldest of our children seem to get along really well. Of course, we aren't going to force an engagement for the two little ones, but I will say it's completely adorable!

My father stays in the capital now too, the grandpa now that he is. He and the King end up acting like little boys when it comes to Cecelia. At first, they were upset that a boy had not been born but it seemed that they both grew really fond of the little Princess. They grew so fond of her actually that they fight for her affection...If they weren't so old, I'd say it would be adorable too...But they are just too damned old to fight like this!

It was a bit sad that the birth of the Prince seemed to be celebrated more then that of the Princess's but what could be done. It's like the people already knew that the next King was born...That he was now on this earth...

Well, I suppose Cecelia had her grandfathers to dote on her to make it fair!

Setchra was still the only country but the nomad part had slowly just become a part of Setchra as well. The nomad area ended up turning into a place that held tournaments and plays. In fact, the King himself has to travel there to see certain things as the area seems to hold a certain rule of its own, making it an incredibly rich place...

Otherwise, there were governors or ministers in other areas of the country, to help look after it better, but the King looked over it all.

I used to be a commoner, I used to be out there, with many of the other people and so...I put that to good use!

Jorne and I both go out and see the people. We are even looking at spending time going from west, to south, to see how the people there are going too. We don't know how the King and Wedge will take it, having to take the children with us, but as the next King and Queen of the country, we want the people to know that we want to look after them to the best of our abilities.

There were no more wars, there were just a whole heap of different people that sometimes had problems accepting others but there were no more battles were hundreds of lives would be lost.
