Drillian - Political Rumors

15-4-342 SKR Queen Willimina Mosskin takes the throne and within days tensions grow between some of the Estates. Rumors quickly start that she is a Vampire or a therianthrope.

Estates that quickly aligned them selves with the new Queen included the Vilmar Estates, Drake and Eustace Estates. Estates that while not in open defiance to the Queen have been strongest in their displeasure are the Bolpel family who feel they should have been chosen for the Royal Consort and the Quelkin Estates.
