Olivia And Alexandal: A Case Study
He was well-aware of all the complications Olivia and Alexandal had had with trying to conceive a child. Alexandal was twelve years older than Olivia and he had been married to another woman before she died at the sack of Illyrium. Together for four years, the couple had never been able to conceive. This tribulation had not been an isolated event. For years, the number of pregnancies across the land had been declining. It had become harder and harder for families to grow and multiply.

    The marriage between the emperors’ daughter and Theodore Gabras’s son Gregory was a mere promise; for the two were still underage, although Gregory was to be taken under the wing of the emperor until the two were legal of age. Soon Gabras’s wife passed and he married a second time to a woman of noble blood, although she and the sebastocrator’s wife were daughters of two brothers.

This displayed Alexius’s genius in a new manner; he kept a friend with recognition of the possibility of him becoming a foe, and kept a backup plan on how to keep his empire away from that danger.

He was able to sense the fear in them and test them to see if they would stand behind their emperor and their land no matter what the consequences may be; therefore he thought the best way to keep them willing to fight for their empire would be to cause fear of the lose of the…
