In the Eastern Wing of the Palace – Dorothy's Quarters
Dorothy woke up that morning feeling the first wave of pain in her stomach. Since her pregnancy becomes unstable she had spent most of her day in her courtyard. She did not dare go about to flaunt her status. She finally understood what the nanny meant the baby is her value within the royal family.
"Lady Dorothy, take a deep breath, the midwives have been notified," the nanny by her side help support Dorothy to the chamber she would give birth.
Her labor was prolong, the either palace was a bit tensed.
It was late in the evening when the first cry finally pierced the silence. Dorothy, after a long and difficult labor, gave birth to a son.
The chamber filled with the sounds of rushed footsteps, whispered prayers, and quiet relief. The midwives bowed their heads as the physician carefully swaddled the child and presented him to King Edward.
