Late night lore drop:
Astrid was born into a family of socialites. She’s an only child. While she grew up used to the finer things in life, she still treated everyone with respect and kindness.
Then shocking news hit her family, they were going bankrupt. Her parents tried to do everything, they started selling things from around their house. And then it came down to their last resort: arrange their daughter with the heir of the kingdom, Alistair.
Alistair was pleased to do it, happily so. It didn’t take long for the two to get married. The kingdom fell in love with the couple. It saved Astrid’s parents from bankruptcy and it was a good political move for Alistair. He would never admit that though.
