Queen Maud has good news

After Maud and Sigefrith made up, neither of them slept on the cold stone bench again. And in late November, as the first snow began to fall outside, Queen Maud whispered a bit of good news to the King. 

Prince Caedwulf

The rest of the court learned the secret a few months later, when an heir was born to the King and Queen. Long live Prince Caedwulf of Lothere!
