Daughters of the King Page 2
October 23rd, 2011Almanac Reference: Saronne
The second page of Daughters of the King is up. This story of love on the colonial frontier is an homage to the 770 women who immigrated to New France under royal sponsorship. The program was called Filles du Roi. They even have a non-profit organization La Société des Filles du roi et soldats du Carignan. It’s things like this that makes me love this time period so much.

Oh hey, this is based on real events. I knew about this – this actually happened in the French colonies of Canada.
Yes! The Filles du Roi are where I got inspiration for this story!
I’m really enjoying the story and art and looking foward to seeing more of Cherborg’s history. Great job, Amy and Shazzbaa!
