Entry 387

Cultural event

Grandpapa did have an affair with Miss Valentine and it seems he even knew about the pregnancy. Someone in his camp when he was Prince of Wales - Oh God; the Prince of Wales... Someone in his camp at the time, I don't know who, suggested 'taking care of the problem.' I think it's pretty clear what that means but he claims ignorance. Rather was ensuring plausible deniability.

How do I reconcile this person with the grandfather I've always known?

Well, tomorrow it all ends. He's going to abdicate. This will end the ignominious reign of King William V.

Of course the next in line is Papa, Papa will be king, and I will become the heir apparent. What's this going to mean for me?

Papa had a moment with Rory, asking if Rory remembered what they talked about. Apparently, they've had a conversation without me. I suppose that is a good thing. I actually really like the idea of them being close. I don't know what to make of the rest. I don't know what will happen with Grandpapa and Grandmum. I don't know what will happen for my role. The only think I'm sure of is Rory.

I at least have that.
