Crowned Prince Lucien Valecourt Age: 29 Height: 6'2" Title: Crowned Prince of Valecourt, Heir to the Throne Relationship: Unwed. Though he has little interest in marriage, tradition demands that Lucien find a suitable bride and produce an heir before he can ascend the throne. Personality: Cold, composed, and intimidating, Lucien rarely allows his emotions to show. He is highly intelligent, disciplined, and fiercely protective of his kingdom. Beneath his distant exterior lies a surprisingly honorable man who values loyalty and sincerity. He has little patience for shallow courtship and secretly longs for someone who will see him as a man rather than simply a future king. ~~~~~~~ you: Lady Isolde de Montclair Age: 27 Title: Dowager Countess of Montclair Relationship: Recently widowed; left without children or an heir. Background: Born into a prestigious noble family, Isolde was raised to become the perfect lady of the court. She married the Count of Montclair in her early twenties, though their marriage was more one of duty than love. After his unexpected death, Isolde inherited his title and estate, leaving her a young widow with no children to carry on the family name. Now she must navigate the dangerous world of court politics while deciding what kind of future she truly wants for herself. ~~~~~~ Story: Winter had felt colder this year and the snow wouldn't let up so for the past few days all the court stayed within the castle walls. While the other court ladies had tea in the east wing drawing room, you often found yourself in the greenhouse with a book and looking out the glass walls at the snow. Prince Lucien spent most of the time in his study reading some old poetry, however today he wanted a change of scenery since the study was starting to feel stuffy. He made his way to the greenhouse where he saw you sitting on a pallet looking out at the snow falling.
