TIRH, The Imperial Duchess and Duke of Lassiter Spotted On The First Leg of Their Honeymoon....
TIRH, The newly wed Imperial Duchess and Duke of Lassiter were seen taking a private stroll among the monuments of Selvadorada. The Couple seemed lost in each other, definitely starting the honeymoon phase on the right footing.
In a display of newly wedded bliss, the pair couldn't keep their hands off of each other. The newly minted Imperial Duke not doubt felt prying eyes and switched positions to shield HIRH.
HIRH, who is notoriously known for not being shy, stared down the paparazzi and gave them a little wave.
The Couple were also seen later that night, among the locals at the popular watering hole, Selva Inn, enjoying the local cuisine .
Music, drinking and plenty of dancing was the aim of the night, in which the Couple partook in with vigor.
The popularity of the couple has sawed to new heights in recent days. The Imperial Duke, in recent polls has been seen to be a welcomed addition to the Imperial Royal Family, making them more relatable.
The Family themselves as a whole have become more popular, especially as HIRH is allowed to continue to teach as a Professor at his University. Logistics of that have not yet been disclosed. His earnings, however, will be recycled back into the educational system. A very Modern move!!
All in all, the Couple look very happy. Stay tuned for more updates!!!
Charlene: Grand-père!? Does this mean-
Henri: Not yet, but we don’t have that much time.
Charlene: I don’t understand. Time for what?
Juliette: There you two are.
Charlene: Grandmère!?
Juliette: Hi darling. I was right Henri, she looks just like my mother.
Henri: You say that about everyone.
Juliette: Have you told her yet!?
Henri: I was about to until you interrupted
Juliette: Get on with it. We don’t have all day.
Henri: Yes dear.
Henri: It’s time for you to go home Hetty.
Charlene: Can’t I just stay here with you?
Henri: No. The longer you’re here the harder it will be.
Charlene: I never wanted any of this you know. I was happy how I was.
Henri: I don’t want to hear this now. You have a duty to our people.
Charlene: I’m not like you or Papa. The past two years have been a disaster. They’re better of without me.
Henri: You can’t be blamed for the mistakes you’ve made. Your father should’ve better prepared you for the challenges of the Crown.
Charlene: ……
Henri: I realise that you’re afraid and tired but running away is not an option my girl.
Charlene: What happens if I fail? Again.
Henri: [smiles] The institution has been around for a while, I think it can survive a mistake or two.
Henri: You have a rare gift but you need to decide what you want to do with it.
Charlene: I’m not sure about all that grand-pére.
Juliette: It’s time.
Charlene: I guess this is goodbye.
STATE VISIT DAY TWO: ROYALS VISIT THE SIMORIAL MUSEUM
For the second day of the state visit, HRH Prince David Ishmael, Duke of Landom and HRH Princess Taiylor Ishmael, Duchess of Landom, were invited to the Tüm Simorial Museum by HRH Princess Cleopatra and HRH Prince Erwin.
The site is familiar to the Crown Princess and her husband as it served as the venue for their wedding reception. The Crown Princess welcomed the foreign Royals of Alexandra [@royalsimsinsider], before a private tour of art exhibitions.
The Duke & Duchess of Landom were also filled in on the details of the upcoming state banquet, to be held in their honour and hosted by HM Queen Amina.

“Birth of a Dream” by Jack Vettriano
I’ve grown up loving racing, so when I came across this lovely painting by Jack Vettriano of a perfectly colored blue vintage racecar I couldn't resist the urge to re-create it in the sims. I opted to go with a different color racecar but I think the scene’s vibe was otherwise captured to a tee. To one day have my own vintage racecar... oh I could only dream.
Top picture: My re-creation of Jack’s painting
Bottom Picture: Jack’s original painting “Birth of a Dream”
Featuring: Prince Thomas of Windenburg and Brindleton from my royal sims series “Along the Seaside”.
King of the Franks and the Lombards, Emperor of the Romans

*TRAY FILES & CC AFTER THE JUMP*
The most familiar portraits of Charlemagne depict him as an old man with a flowing mane of gray hair and a huge beard, but these all date from centuries after he lived and represent a later idealized version of him with little basis in reality. For my Sim-lemagne, I wanted to reflect the reality of his time, when most portraits of European rulers depicted them with neat bowl cuts, and while they sometimes had facial hair, it was usually short and neat.
I also wanted to use the fact that he’s one of the first rulers we have a contemporary physical description of. He was over 6 feet, hugely tall at a time when the average man was 5′7″ (get out your height sliders, ladies), and his biographers commented on his impressive size and slightly protruding belly, though examinations of his skeleton suggest he was fairly slender. We also know he was fair, typical for the Franks, the Germanic tribe he descended from.
As for his clothes, he preferred to dress in a way much simpler than his wealth and power might have allowed. He almost always wore a blue cloak and a sword, which I did my best with in his everyday outfit. His contemporary biographer, Einhard, said he always dressed in the traditional Frankish way and despised foreign clothes, though he allowed himself to dress in the Roman fashion twice when he was visiting there out of respect. He was also crowned Roman Emperor by the Pope in 800, so between those two things, for his formal outfit I decided to let the realism go a little bit and make him look like a kind of medieval take on a traditional Roman Emperor (which, hey, he pretty much was).
Dude had a huge family, complete with multiple wives and concubines and over a dozen children, so I’ll probably be working on those folks soon so you can give this poor guy a household.
And sorry for all the clipping issues. It was a flowy time.

**A note on the name: Charlie’s Sim name is Karl Arnulfing. Charlemagne is an honorific name given to him after his death that literally translates to “Charles the Great” in French. Charlie himself spoke an old dialect of German, and his personal name would have been Karl (or something close to it). While he wouldn’t have had a last name in the modern sense, I gave him the surname Arnulfing since that’s the name of the dynasty he came from (they all descended from a guy named Arnulf). His own descendants are known as Carolingians (Karolinger in German) after the Latin form of his name, Carolus, so that’s the last name I’ll give his children.
