King Alexander and Queen Marie Lucine wanted to give their blessings to Don of York and to the Lady Joan of Hereford, their parents had given their consent to a betrothal, when become of age, they can be married.
So Don decided, in front of all the court, to propose to the Lady Joan. The Lady said yes of course.
Soon it was time to celebrate the Princess Isabella's Birthday, she was turning 2, it seem almost yesterday that the little Princess had been born. Soon she would be moving to the countryside with the Duchess of York.
And here is the Princess, she looks like a softer version of her father. She has black hair, brown eyes and light skin.
The Princess' departure was here, she would be under the supervision of the Duchess of York, the Queen knew she would be well cared for, but it sadden her to think she would be away from her Daughter.
As she was finishing packing, the Duchess looked around the room she spent almost 5 years in and now she would be moving back to her estates in York, the Duke of York and her son would be traveling with her, but the Duke and her son would return to court.
As the Duchess walk into the royal nursery, the Queen was saying her good byes to the little Princess.
"My dear child, I will visit as often as I can" the Queen told the small infant
"Mama" the tiny Princess said
"Good bye, Isabella" the Queen said as she handed the child to the Duchess.
Months after the Duchess moved back to her Estates, the Queen had received word from York.
"Your Majesty, I have just been told, the Duke of York has died.
