The Phoenix Son

A PHOENIX SON

 

A blessed day indeed for the nation of Balian, where it celebrates several new additions to its people this saints day.

 

I am pleased to announce the birth of my first child, Anastasios Ezren Novellen, born only days after his Temesch-Novellen cousins. It is my hope that they will all find friendship with one another's company throughout these dark times. It is my hope that he will bear his grandfather's name proudly.

 

Both mother and child rest within the safety and privacy of the Palace, and are both said to be doing well.

 

His Highness, Elianos Hadrian Novellen, Prince of Balian.

Esfir squealed, quickly taking to Balian to meet her first nephew with excitement! Oh, how she was going to spoil him.

Anastasios squirmed within his bundle!

Henrik Amador prepares a basket for the first grandchild - a grandson, no less - and his recovering mother. When it's on its way, he settles back, and with a rare smile - lights a celebratory cigar, hoping for a visit as soon as the young family is ready.
