archduchess

The archduchess admires his protective instinct, but she can’t save him, or the tower, from their inevitable fate.

About a self-important archduchess, she comments: “I would like to see her in the water. Water has a way of splashing on the mighty in a way that does them no favors.”

Marie-Antoinette, an Austrian archduchess by birth, was the wife of King Louis XVI of France, of the Bourbon dynasty.

It is now appropriated to the descendants of the imperial family of Austria through the make line, all such male descendants being styled archduke, and all such female descendants archduchesses.

King Henry promises to perform the marriage ceremonies within a month of the archduchess's arrival at Greenwich.
