Queen Alexandra



Alexandra had 9 children in total who survived childhood. The twins Princesses Victoria and Alexandrina, Prince Edward, Prince Alfie, Princess Lillian, Prince Richard, Prince Francis, and Princess Claude with her first husband, and with her second husband, Princess Grace.

Queen Alexandra was the seventh child of the King and Queen of the Gem Kingdom. She developed a very close relationship with her mother, who taught her all about pregnancy, how to rule a kingdom, and the best way to deal with a difficult relationship, among other things. Alexandra's mother died when Alexandra was about seven years old. This had a big impact on Alexandra. Her father remarried when Alex was eight, and the two hated each other on sight. Elenor despised Alex because the girl was becoming more and more beautiful as the years passed. Rumors were flying the the queen wanted the young girl assassinated. The king claimed he was unable to do anything without proof. He assigned extra guards to his daughter, but that was it. Just before her thirteenth birthday, the family sat down to dinner and a servant noticed that the queen was watching Alexandra closely. Alex must have noticed too, because she glared at her step mother as she took a bite of her dinner. She immediately dropped her fork and crumpled to the ground. He physician confirmed that she had been poisoned. Her father used this, and an eyewitness account from the servant as proof, and had Elenor executed. Alex made a full recovery. When she was 14, her father married a third time, to a young woman named Claude. Alex automatically mistrusted Claude, and Claude understood, and didn't try to get to close to the girl at first. After a while Alex began to warm up to the young queen. Claude taught Alex about things like knitting and sewing, as well as taking care of children. When she was 17 she met Prince Domin, a potential husband that her father was considering. They liked each other instantly, and spent a lot of time together. When she was 19 and he was 24, Alex made a scandalous discovery. Alex was unmarried- and pregnant. She urgently needed her child's father to marry her. When Domin arrived, she ran to him and said "Domin. You have to propose to me. In front of my father." When he asked her why, she responded: "Oh Domin. We made such a big mistake. I'm pregnant." He proposed at dinner that night, and the marriage was a week later. Tragedy struck when only two months into the pregnancy, Alexandra suffered a miscarriage. When she was twenty, Alex conceived and gave birth to not one, but TWO daughters. The girls were named Victoria and Alexandrina. SEVEN children followed. Age 22 she gave birth to Edward. Age 23, Alfie. Age 25, Cora, who died age 5 of disease. Age 27, Lillian. Age 28, Richie. Age 30, Francis. And finally, she gave birth to her final child with Domin, Princess Claude, when she was 32. Through out this time, her marriage was failing. In 3871, only two months after Claude was born, King Phillip, from a different kingdom, sent an ambassador with an interesting task. His task was to take Alexandra back to his kingdom to be held as a prisoner until Domin could pay off his debt to the other king. Domin didn't respond immediately, but Alexandra, eager to escape her husbands smothering authority, agreed. She was allowed to take any children under the age of 5. Alex sent a servant to fetch 4 year old Richie, 2 year old Francis, and 2 month old Claude. After three years, the ransom had not been paid, and now, Richie was six years old. He was sent home alone, leaving his heartbroken mother and two little siblings. Two years later, Francis was sent back too. In the final two years of their captivity, Alex and Phillip grow very close. Eventually, he decided to cut Alex's ransom in half. Domin was able to pay to get her and Claude back, and they tearfully said goodbye. During the last year of her imprisonment, Domin had been increasingly realizing how much he had loved her.
