Dearest Readers, While we are currently on somewhat of a hiatus (currently in the progress of mildly returning), the year has obviously not stopped. And now the month of June is almost over again. The month for people of the LGBTQ+ community, of fellow queer people, being loud and proud about who they are and who they love. Our world is just as full of beautiful colorful people (there is way too many to even have a chance of posting them). Though not always quite visible, every single one of them is valid just as they are. King Kaden, the monarch of Ravenwood, has started his life being in a marriage with the former Queen Amelia. The sense of duty told them they had to adhere to the expectation. But neither of them was straight, one gay, one lesbian. While it wasn't on their own terms, both of them are now in relationships with people of the same gender, as seen with Lord Orion and King Kaden above. Most people would not be expecting Innisgreen's Prince Consort Caelstis to be anything but a cis-man. But the world did not always see him as a man. In a beautiful photo titled as "we wear our scars proudly" Caelstis and Queen Elowen show off the scars that they usually hide. The Queen showing off her scar from an open heart surgery and from an accident a few years ago. The Prince Consort showing off his from his top surgery when he was younger. Alex Goth, who many got to know as Alexander, is a famous child of the Goth Baronate. She and her boyfriend Lord Sebastian Ellsworth are both trans people too, their relationship both T4T and Bi4Bi as the internet would call it. Majesty Onyx is our first nonbinary royal, they are posing with their Nephew Kai, who is also a trans man, and their grand niece Cassia and nibling Milo Doukas. Cassia is wearing the Demisexual Flag, Milo the genderfluid one. If you follow our story you will get to know many more queer people. Get to know their joy and sorrows. We hope you will join our journey! See you next week, Your Watcher Team

Dearest Readers,

Deepest apologies for our absence. The authors took a break in the beautiful area of Mount Komorebi and spent a very nice time immersed in the royalty and nobility of the island nations. We will make sure to introduce you to those families in the future, so stay tuned! But now to the updates. Todays news are coming from both Ravenwood and Windenburg, with some relationship and offspring news.

Baron Rhett and Lord Eziah Lennox announce the official adoption of their former foster children Yuko and Arlo. Based on the customary lineage rule Arlo Lennox will be taking over the title in the event of Baron Rhett's passing. According to the press release their adoption happened a while ago, they just waited to publically announce it until the children were a bit older.

Offspring news continue in Ravenwood, where Lady Amelia and her girlfriend have announced pregnancies of both of them. They explained that the fathers to the children are a befriended couple that asked to remain anonymous. The news comes as quite the surprise considering the strained relationship that Lady Amelia is rumoured to have with her royal children. We will definitely keep you updated on the developments in this story.

A romantic little meeting happened between the Moonwood Mill Baron's son Lord Gregory and Windenburg's Lady Sienna Ellsworth a few days ago. The two of them were allegedly seen talking quite some time at the princesses' birthday ball a few weeks ago. Now they were seen on a little date in the city doing some roller skating. What a cute little (first?) date!

Well I guess that's it for the first little update. Thankfully it seems the nobility took some time off with us too! Let's talk again next week! Until then 😘

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Gentle Readers, Well to talk about the events of the evening we have to take a little look inside the Willow Creek Palace, where the ball was held until a few hours ago. First we see the decoration, showing the dance cards that were typical for the Regency Era. With them we have some Cake and other goods like Macarons. And of course the usual punches and other typical items. The only further pictures released by the palace were pictures released from the father daughter dances, where it must be noted, that Princess Flore chose to dance with her stepfather Lord Orion. It does seem to be quite the jab at her mother, who she was not seen interacting with even once, as our sources say. Princess Celeste was seen talking to her a lot, so we do hope that their relationship will be better. The Princesses themselves were not seen dancing with anyone besides their fathers, but allegedly Princess Flore was seen leaving the event with someone that was not a family member. We don't know more but truly hope this is not a sign of her descent into something less appropriate for a Princess… In general it seems to have been a successful event without a lot of problems. We do wonder if we will hear more about the relationship of Princess Flore and her mother. Let us see what will happen next. Until then, Your Lady Whistle- sorry of course Your Catherine Watcher

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers, or should I say dearest gentle readers?

Feels only appropriate considering the seemingly chosen topic of the royal princesses' birthday party. The theme of the evening was Regency era / Bridgerton. As we look into the pictures posted by the royal families, we first look at who attended and will then release a separate post about some of the pictures posted from the event itself.

First of course the guests of honor for today, Princess Flore of Ravenwood, Princess Robin of Willow Creek and Princess Riley of Windenburg. The theme of the evening was chosen by them and they also picked the list of invited guests, presumably with some guidance by their parents.

Next there is the parents of the guests, led by King Alen and Queen Charlene of Willow Creek. King Hadrian and Queen Fallon were also accompanied by the King's siblings, Prince Octavius and Princess Flavia.

A rare sight was finding not only King Hadrian and Lord Orion of Ravenwood, accompanied by Princess Celeste, but also the former Queen Amelia and her girlfriend Sonia. This comes after an argument between Princess Flore and her mother Amelia was witnessed a few days ago. Definitely makes you wonder.

Furthermore the former Queen Amelia's Family, the Barony of Moonwood Mill, was in attendence, just like the County of Willow Creek, who are Queen Charlene's family.

Of course Count Ellsworth, Hadrian's Cousin, was also in attendence. With him came his wife and all 4 of his children, some of which were in turn accompanied by their partners. Last but certainly not least are the people specifically invited by the princesses, among them a mostly unfamiliar face. It seems Princess Flore's older stepsister Sigrid Simmons has joined the ranks of the royals and has officially been in attendance to this event. It seems to be a first sign towards the young lady being more interested in her station. In the next part in a few hours we will talk a bit more about the events of the evening. See you then

[thethroneroomtales]

Following the phone call a while ago, the former Queen Amelia decided to try a bit more with her children. She first invited both of them to a hangout, and now decided to invite Princess Flore out for a coffee. But when she arrived there nothing really went as planned.

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers, Well it seems like some interesting things happened last week. First of all we had the announcement of engagements in two noble families. Lady Astrea Burrows has announced her engagement to a commoner of the name Hunter Acosta. I won't lie and say we expected her to be getting married to a man, but here we are. Hunter is quite well beloved young man from Tartosa, who is often seen surfing at the beach. Lady Astrea is quite the opposite, often spending her time at home, but I guess they have found some common ground in all of that? We are very curious to find out about their love story. The second engagement is that of Lady Serena Pia van Alphen, sister of the Count of Nordhaven, to the Model Jameson Jie. You might potentially have heard of their rumoured relationship in World Weekly. Since they met while posing for the newest wedding trends, their paths kept crossing. What had been first assumed to be quite the rivalry has seemingly turned into a deep affection. Considering both of their looks we can only assume their children will steal everyone's hearts. We will be updating you about their relationship in the future! But onto another story. Princess Riley of Windenburg visited the Newton's Children's Academy for the Deaf with her mother Queen Fallon. The Princess herself was born deaf on one side of her ear and hard of hearing on the other, so SSL (Sim Sign Language) proved to be useful for both her and her mother to know. Having a member of the Royal Family be like them surely had to be important representation for these young children. And so the Princess decided to visit some classes to talk to them specifically over the last few weeks. The last information is somewhat 3 messages at once, with the Innisgreen royal siblings announcing all at once that all three of them (well, for Prince Vireon of course it is his wife) are pregnant at the same time! What a cute coincidence! We truly hope all of their children can grow up as close as Princess Maeris and Queen Elowen have. And, well, that was already also the last update for today! Let's see each other again next week! See you then, Your Catherine Watche

[thethroneroomtales]

Following his conversation with his mother, Queen Amalita, Orin of Nordhaven joined his brother Tristan on their trip to the gym. When they arrived there, Tristan and Orin decided to sign up for a spinning class. They heard that it is supposed to be good cardio, but when the class started, they immediately knew they fucked up. See what happened here.

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers,

We have important news for you today. Most of which are coming from Ravenwood's royal family.

First the "royal triplets", as the friendship of Princess Flore of Ravenwood, Princess Robin of Willow Creek and Princess Riley of Windenburg was named, have made an announcement. In honor of all three of them celebrating their birthdays, they decided to host a shared birthday ball. It will apparently be a themed event, but we only got the little hint in picture 2. We are very excited to find out what theme they will pick for their celebration.

The 2nd news comes from Willow Creek where the King and his wife have welcomed another child to their family. The little Princess Aaliyah seems to have been born heathy without a lot of problems on Charlene's part.

Last but definitely not least is a little family dinner with a plan behind it. The King of Ravenwood asked everyone to join him for a family dinner in the banquet room. According to the palace, Lord Orion was immediately suspicious due to the children all having gotten dressed up. In the middle of dinner King Kaden then asked Lord Orion to get up. We are not privy to the nature of his speech but we all know with which words it ended. And it seems the "Will you marry me?" was received very well by Lord Orion.

Lots of words to just feature the announcement that King Kaden has gotten engaged to Lord Orion surrounded by his family.

But it is also the first time we have officially seen Orion's adopted children in pictures released by the palace, even if they are mostly obscured. We will obviously not reveal their identity until we know their stance on it.

For now we wish them all the very best in their lives and are extremely excited to have the first gay royal couple in Ravenwood History getting married!

Lots of thinks happening as per usual. We hope the ball will happen soon so we can stop being curious.

But until then,

Have a nice week 😘

[thethroneroomtales]

Today we focus on the world of Glimmerbrook, where the current monarch, Majesty Onyx, has been dealing with their children's training sessions for quite some time. At first it was only their son Obinna, who is the older of the two. But since Thea also grew into her powers, the two of them have been constantly training without pause. Majesty Onyx has had enough and decides to surprise their children after another sparring match (which was won by Obinna).

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers, We wish you all a Happy Valentines! It seems our royals and nobles are also celebrating in their own ways.

The Ravenwood Monarch and his boyfriend spent the evening at a Restaurant in Windenburg. Gosh they seem so sickingly in Love. Rumours say an engagement might have happened? It is good to see the King so clearly not caring about anyone else besides Lord Orion. The restaurant has existed in Windenburg since the early 1800s and has been in the ownership of the same family since its inception. Getting a seat there is quite difficult, regardless of who is trying to book. This date has to have been planned for quite some time! Winter is such a nice season. Whether you are a skiing enthuasiast or prefer skating, there is some things that can only really be done when it's winter. And Valentine's is an amazing time to enjoy with relationships new and old. On that topic, the Windenburg Royals apparently left on a little trip to the Olympic Village. Apparently both of them are avid skiers and so they decided to visit the Olympic representatives of the Alpine Ski Team combined women's discipline wishing them the best of luck. A surprise guest was Andre Winters, one of the contestants for the cross country competition that probably was there to meet his best friend, King Hadrian. We last saw him at the wedding of Queen Fallon and King Hadrian. They were also enjoying some time in Mount Komorebi, an island nation known and named after the mountain on which this event is taking place. Apparently the trip was not only for them though, since the monarchs also met up with some nobles from Mount Komorebi. More on the skating end of things we have Prince Tristan of Nordhaven being spotted with Lord Jensen van Alphen, son of the Count and Countess of Nordhaven. What a cute first date it is too! With the snow falling. The boys both grew up skating so it's not like either of them being able to is surprising whatsoever.

If you're less interested in the Winter, you could also just stay inside or move to a warmer country. These seem to be the approaches Lady Alex Goth and Lord Sebastian Ellsworth and Lady Lilavati Kapoor and Lady Sophia Ellsworth seem to be taking. Lady Alex and her new boyfriend spent the time playing piano at the music school in Willow Creek where she learnt to play the violin as a child. It is nice to see that both of their transitions seem to be going very well. Both of them are looking so stunning. Lady Kapoor and Lady Ellsworth, Lord Sebastian's triplet, spent their time in the south of Brindleton Bay where it was a lot warmer than in the rest of the country, good enough to actually go and have a picnic outside. Obviously we are waiting for official information regarding the nature of their relationships but for now we support their budding romances and hope they, and all of you dear readers, enjoyed Valentine's Day! Best Wishes and See you next week. Your Catherine Watcher .

[thethroneroomtales]

After the unsatisfying date, Crown Prince Orin of Nordhaven has come to talk with his mother about the decision him and Princess Flavia of Windenburg have made. But it seems the Queen also has something to talk about.

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers, Today we are here to inform you of some good and some very sad news.

First we have a return of someone I thought was swallowed by the ground. Lady Amelia finally officially spent some time with her children again. Since the divorce of Lady Amelia and King Kaden of Ravenwood it has been very quiet around her. Not too long ago (during new years) we saw her and her girlfriend spending time with the Monarchs of Ravenwood, Willow Creek, Windenburg, Nordhaven, Innisgreen and Glimmerbrook. But it quite seemed to everyone like she had not spent any time with her children in months and years. For whatever reason we now at least got the confirmation that she actually did. Princess Flore looks a lot more tense than we are used to see, but Princess Celeste clearly seems to have fun.

Sad news from Willow Creek! The Duke Arwel Powell has been reported to have passed away pacefully in his sleep. This comes at the end of a host of health issues the duke had been having. Duchess Eirlys Powell has already confirmed the heirship so the title has already been transferred to her. One of her twin children, Lord Lamar Powell, has therefore officially become the heir apparent to the title. We are hoping that there will still be a long time until that becomes relevant of course. For now we are wishing the family our condolences and that they will be having the time and opportunity to process that loss.

Lastly some very good news. Not long after her younger brother Prince Vireon of Innisgreen and the now Baroness Roselia announced their wedding, it seems Princess Maeris decided to finally tie the knot too. There is some not quite so good rumours about Duke Therin and the company he keeps so we do hope that the Princess will set him straight and tame the beast, so to say. The couple definitely looks very gorgeous in this wedding picture. Let's see what the future has in store for them.

That's it for this week's updates. We hope you will stay with us! See you next week :kissing_heart:

[thethroneroomtales]

We have been noticing that Amelia has not been seen with her children in quite some time. It was kinda worrying but I guess there was some backstory to this behaviour...

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers,

After our conversation last week about the wedding of Prince Vireon and his now wife Roselia we were informed that they were granted the title of Baron and Baroness of Innisgreen by Queen Elowen. The title had returned to the crown after the previous Barony did not have any legitimate children.

We also got informed of another wedding that happened recently in a different part of the world. The son of the Baron of Henford-on-Bagley Ryland Matson married Giselle Enyo Doukas in a private ceremony in the gardens.

A trio of friends or long lost triplets? The princesses of Ravenwood, Willow Creek and Windenburg have been friends for quite some time and have been seen hanging out together before. But they definitely seem to be trying to convince us they are actually related. We have heard that they were discussing important plans for the future. We can only stay invested in what these little chaotic bunch will make us privy too.

On another news. The child of Baron Mortimer of Willow Creek has come out as Transgender. She has informed us that she will be using the title of Lady Alex Goth and has therefore accepted the loss of the heirship as it has happened in Willow Creek before. Her parents have stated that they fully support Alex in her transition. Who knows maybe next time we will see her she will look quite different already.

We have not seen anything about the Ravenwood royals themselves, especially the former Queen Amelia, recently. I do hope that is not a bad sign for their relationship. We are awaiting more in the future.

Until then, Have a nice week 😘

[thethroneroomtales]

It has been some time since the former Queen of Windenburg, Henrietta, made an agreement with the Queen of Nordhaven, Amalita, that their children would be engaged to each other. Amalita agreed under the terms that they would only get wed if the children agreed and seemed happy. When during the garden party both of them chose to talk privately, only secretly accompanied by Amalita, she was sure that it would not take long for them to fall for each other like Dominic and her had decades before. Their relationship stayed friendly through the funeral of Flavia's mother, the coronation of her brother and also through the birth of Orin's little sister. Now that both of them are ready to think about marriage, they agreed on a first date at the botanical gardens. Orin is deeply interested in everything plant related. Read here how their first date with each other went.

[thethroneroomtales]

Dearest Readers,

I do hope you enjoyed your time off without us. We have decided to somewhat restructure our blog. So from today on you will only hear these posts once a week (unless something unexpected happens) that summarises the things that happened this week. Besides that you will see on Tuesdays little stories, that we as a blog unfortunately have no way of actually seeing.

So for our first post of the new year we have our dear Princess Flore of Ravenwood performing a solo at her ballet school's latest production. Isn't it insane just how quickly she grew up? She already is old enough for Pointe Shoes! We are absolutely excited to hear more about her upcoming birthday in a bit and truly hope that her mother Amelia (the former queen) was there for her performance.

Besides that we also have some truly devastating news for all those of you that were hoping to woo Innisgreen's Prince Vireon (Queen Elowen's brother that is). He recently officially got married to his fiancée Roselia Vega. Though not born a fairy she recently performed the transformation rites to fulfill the Innisgreen royal tradition and feel closer to her deceased mum. According to a statement from the palace her mother was a fairy living in Innisgreen until she fell for a man from the Nordhaven Royal Guard and moved to Tartosa because of it. We wish them both the best for their future and lots of beautiful children!

Apropos Children. The Baron Tom of Nordhaven and his wife Cassandra (formerly Goth) officially welcomed their first child Lady Noelle. Based on the statement issued, the Baron and his wife decided to enjoy their time together with their daughter privately, not informing the press of her birth. Since her and Princess Charlotte should be a very similar age, we hope they will be good friends.

We are looking forward to seeing you all back here next Saturday for our next summary post. Until then, Have a nice week 😘
