STUTTGART, Year 2065
.
Finland hung up the phone with a happy face. She turned to her husband, who was engrossed in reading something on the terrace of their castle.
"We'll have a new grandchild," she said in a shaky voice. Her eyes looked teary.
Caspar widened his eyes and smiled broadly. Ahh ... he really liked all his grandchildren, and the news that he was going to be a grandpa again made him very happy.
"L and London will have a baby?" he asked curiously. "How many months in?"
"It's been four months. They deliberately waited after the first trimester was over before they would tell us all," said Finland. "It's quite a difficult pregnancy. London sounded really frantic on the phone. We'd better go over there and visit them."
Caspar nodded. "Good idea. I'll tell the others."
He chuckled and immediately sent word to his daughter, Aleksis, since Rune was going on an expedition and couldn't be reached.
