"So, she has only managed to give Henry a girl. I know the feeling he gets when he is displeased. What other news is there do you know from court, Elena?

According to her ladies in waiting; the king said; she was young and that a son should follow. Her name is Elizabeth after both of their mothers. Elena turned to face the true queen of England. It can’t be a happy life because she didn’t give him a son; she failed what she promised to do.

"You are right Elena. It cannot be a happy life, especially now that he only has a girl. I know Henry, he will no doubt grow tired of her as he has little faith. Elena, do you have news of my daughter Mary?
