Eight years after the birth of her son and heir, Prince Eric de Valdavia, Angilia's life continues down the path which God destined her to tread. The 40 years which follow are filled with the heights and depths of joy and sorrow. Many of their family members and friends die. Prince Eric grows to manhood and finds his true love, only to experience a tragedy that mirrors the one suffered by his beloved grandfather many decades earlier. Alongside her cherished father, King Eric de Valdavia, Angilia co-reigns as the first hereditary Queen de Valdavia in the nation's history. Together, they lead with compassion, always guided by prayer. Their love of God, family, and all people inspire many, especially Prince Eric, the boy predestined to become King Eric II de Valdavia. Queen Angilia's and King Eric's love, faith, and benevolence remain their greatest assets, and the legacy which they leave to Prince Eric and his children. Thus will the blessed Kingdom of Valdavia remain the beneficiary well into the 22nd century.
