I'm Back!!
But, for those of you who don't know me, here is my story:
Cordelia is the oldest daughter of Henry VIII and Katherine of Aragon and the older sister of Mary. She is also (eventually) the older sister of Elizabeth and Edward.
While on a trip to Bavaria, Cordelia met Daniel Francis, a man from one of the Bavarian villages. They fell in love and eloped soon after. Upon getting back to England - and Henry finding out about their marriage - Daniel was arrested and put in the Tower for a week while Cordelia was confined to her chambers in house arrest. Upon Daniel's release, the couple headed back to Bavaria.
It was during this week of separation that Cordelia found out she was pregnant.
9 months passed. After catching Daniel cheating on her with his ex-girlfriend, Margaret, Cordelia went into labor.
Abigail Minerva Francis was born around Christmastime, in the midst of a huge fight between her parents.
Cordelia almost didn't survive the birth, catching Child-Bed fever and almost dying in the process. But, she survived and - after reconciling with Henry and a couple years passed - moved back to England with her husband and daughter. They now reside in Hedingham.
After spending a few lovely months in Hedingham, Cordelia and Daniel got into another fight. Daniel, afraid that Cordelia would almost die again should she ever get pregnant, voiced the fact that he didn't want to risk losing her to have anymore children. Cordelia was outraged, telling him that she would never give up her child just to save her own life. Daniel departed back to Bavaria, leaving Cordelia at Hedingham. Both of them didn't know that Cordelia was pregnant at the time of the fight.
When Daniel came back to England with his former childhood sweetheart - and mother of his son, Will - Alison, he and Cordelia forgave each other and both rejoiced at the thought of another child on the way. During Cordelia's pregnancy, Daniel decided that he wanted to better himself by going to college to get an education at Oxford. He wanted to become a doctor. Though they didn't want to leave each other, Cordelia and Daniel said their good-byes and Daniel went off to school.
When Daniel came back home on a break from school, Cordelia was about 7 months into her pregnancy. One night, Daniel got a letter from his sister, Jackie, telling him that their mother had passed away. That same night, Cordelia went into premature labor.
Riley Daniel Francis, despite being two months early, was born a healthy baby. Daniel and Cordelia were overjoyed to know that their child was healthy despite the early birth. Abby took a liking to her new brother right away, even though he used to "hit" her while he was in Cordelia's stomach.
Soon after the birth of Riley and leaving Abby and Riley under the care of Alison, Cordelia and Daniel headed to Bavaria to pay their respects to Daniel's mother. Daniel's brother, Michael, and Michael's wife - who just happened to be Daniel's ex-girlfriend, Margaret - went with them. Daniel blamed his sister, Jackie, for their mother's death, though Jackie had no control over their mother tripping on an overgrown root and hitting her head on a rock.
The last time we saw our characters, they were paying respects to Daniel's mother at her grave. I don't think we'll be starting there again, though. We might start a little while after that. ;D
Now, I'm sure I've forgotten something. This post is pretty long. But, that is Cordelia's story - so far - for anyone who doesn't know it. ;D

Cordelia has never really wanted to be Queen anyways. She still won't want to be queen when the time comes that Henry dies, its just in her character. So, yeah, she'll abdicate her rights to the throne when the time comes.
