Kerttukoskinen Stories

Twenty years have passed since Eadlyn Schreave married Eikko Koskinen and a new era in Illea has dawned. Their daughter, Princess Kerttu Koskinen is training to be a constitutional monarch; while balancing the act of finding a partner at the same time... but her happily ever after may not be what she'd always thought it would be.

Queen Eadlyn and Prince Consort Eikko Koskinen are finally letting the heir to Illéa, Kerttu Koskinen have the selection she's only dreamed of. Kerttu is nervous but mostly excited to have the time of her life. Or at least she thought so...

Her grandparents found love this way, her parents found love this way. Will Kerttu find love the same or has she found love outside the selection? She is known to be adored by the people, the people felt like she understood them since she went behind her mother's back and went to college. But would people still adore her as she tackles this selection, the weight of being a queen, and all the complications that suddenly come about in her family? Or would they turn back to questioning who she is like they did when she was younger?

In the years after Illéa became a constitutional monarchy, the transition proved less simple than Queen Eadlyn had predicted, and unrest continued to grow. A new and violent faction of Northern Rebels led by Marid Illéa eventually rose up and stormed the palace killing the royal family, except for, as the rumors say, the young Princess Kerttu. Across the seas in France, Ahren Schreave, the prince consort to Queen Camille, has heard the rumors his beloved niece survived at the hands of the rebels and is willing to do anything to find her. In Illéa, a poor orphan named Kate is struggling to survive the rough world of Illéa under Marid's rule while trying to break through heavy amnesia to remember her past. When her likeness to the missing princess is spotted by two brothers looking to cash in on an offer from the French Royal Family for the return of their lost niece, Kate starts to wonder if the dreams she has of glittering palaces and the warm embrace of a mother and father are more than just her imagination. Inspired by the film and musical Anastasia and based on The Selection characters.
