As the story was told by local folktale and story tellers. That lady, whose step father was a baronet was quite beautiful, her pale skin, far more beautiful than the princess and the queens of Qing kingdom. Her purple eyes sparkled like the glinting diamond stars of the sky. Her face was perfect with long strands of braided red hair with crowns atop her head. Her body was slender and perfect like a model of a goddess with her breast and hips in perfect synchronization with one another.
She loved to cook and many men woe her and wanted her and even queens came along with their carriages to see this beauty for themselves and this brought jealous hatred to her. Even some Nobles wanted her for a night but their pride as Noblemen kept them in check. It is a common believe that a noble man or duke with authority should not mix with the common peasant however this was not so with the crown prince of Qing. Prince Alex Wigglesworth.
The prince and the lady popularly know as Gloria melt by coincidence. She was kidnapped by some band of bandits, but the prince bravery saved her and she became good friends with the prince and later they both fell madly in love with each other to the extent that the court of Qing asked the prince to chose between his royal status and a commoners blood. The prince dropped his status and chose that lady Gloria.
They got married and live in a small house with little or anything. The prince worked at a sword merchant vendor by day and by the end of a full day job. He hunts and brings his catch to his beautiful wife Gloria. She cooked and soon they were bless with a son. Though they had nothing but they were happy. The prince felt sick and almost died but that woman help him over came allot of crisis in his life and wiggles worth felt bless that he found a good wife however the court of Qing despises Gloria and called her a witch because the Prince chose her over wealth and high status and they believe that she used some kind of magic charms on him and also to keep her beauty.
The king of Qing died and Rudeus, Alex younger brother was enthroned as king however he suddenly died along with the prince who was suppose to ascend the throne after him in war and the only blood line to the throne left alive was wigglesworth. After much delegation. He ascended the throne on the conditions that he will marry the previous concubines of his late brother and an arrange marriage with the first queen of Edo named Boa chen. Wiggle worth as king stay with his wife and his son born from Gloria name Adam and was crowned crown prince however Adam as crown prince did not go down well with the court.
An half-ly born of low birth and royal birth and so the court ministers urged the king to make pregnant the other queens to have many children. The Queen's in competitive battle among them to birth an heir tried their best but for some reason. None of them was pregnant.
Every night the kings room plop with noise of queens and a year pass. The queens couldn't take in and if not for the splinting image of his son Adams. The court had thoughts that the king was impotent. Other queens began to blame Gloria calling her a witch. They believe that the same way she charmed the prince was the same way she has locked the wombs of the other queens.
...
The queens and their fraction ministers within the court escalated the matter to a dimension that the king started to believe maybe his wife has some powers and to settle the matter. He called for a divine oracle priest of the Goddess of birth known as Nema. Nema was to verify if she was a witch or not and the issue about the childlessness of the queen. A day before Nema will come to Qing. Two queens Boa chen and Stella went to meet Nema to know before hand the reasons for their circumstances. Nema told them that the goddess of foresight and destiny had seen how Gloria has suffered in taking care of her home and their love story was the talk of the other goddesses. They have never seen any kind of love expressed genuinely between Gloria and king wiggles worth however they foresee a tragedy that dent their story that will bring a war of the undead that will shake earth for the actions of humans and so the goddess did not bless him with any kind of son but a son whose offspring will end the undead.
