TO ALL OUR RESPECTABLE PEERS, 

 

It is with much exaltation that the Household of Halcourt announces the premature birth of Casimira Antonia Halcourt d’Artois @valecu, who was delivered by the Baroness early in the morning as the sun rose over the horizons of their newly built estate. The newborn is expected to be attentively observed due to her worrying weight. It is reported she bears the traditional Halcourt traits- brown hair, pale grey eyes and a straight nose. The birth putatively has endangered the health of the mother and respectively demands rest. We pray for the healthy development of the juvenile, and may GOD retort such.

Casimira frowns, as she was being fed by her au pair.

A young Temeschian youth, Hélène deemed it fit to visit the ailing baroness, and more importantly, her new daughter immediately. She packed a bag of goodies; consisting of her mothers wines, incense, herbs, food, and some toys for the new babe.

 

(Although, getting in was a different struggle she hadn't anticipated. So she simply left the goodies at the gates.)

"Casimira Antoina?" Spat Baroness Carrington, Coraline Antonia, discarding a letter bearing the news. "My dearest cousin and his wench are mad!"
