And it is taking the #1 spot on my Christmas wish-list followed by COD: Black Ops.  :D

In 1898 by accident her nasal bridge was seriuosly damaged and she had little scars on it and on forehead.
How did that happen?

Jump in the Neva, perhaps? :D   One of these days I will actually get around to reading that book. I just don't know when.

Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna / Ella's Health

In the female side of the bloodline, the hereditary illness was apparent in other forms. Grand Duchess Elizabeth Feodorovna was a very sick lady.
I came across this statement in the 'Alexandra and her Health' board (pg. 54) and was wondering if anyone could add any more detail to it. Thanks!

*Silence except for the sound of my hopes dashing away*

Well, I've always wondered how that's pronounced. Do you, by any chance, have audio for that too?

So basically to pronounce it right, you rock your tongue back when saying the 'n'. That kind of reminds me of double-tonguing in Band. Also, from what I can tell from the audio, it seems that I have been pronouncing it right. That's heartening!  :)

I'm having some difficulty finding the exact difference between the two. Is the second one just a softer 'y' sound or what?

Thank you! Is there a key to all the numbers by any chance?

Basement:


Specifically, the basement under the imperial bedroom:

Does anyone have the floor plans of the basement? I've already looked in the AP thread but they're all gone.  :(

I'm not exactly sure where this question should go, but this is the best fitting place I could find. If Nicholas want to discuss matters involving Palace security, who would he have talked to? Voyekov? Spiridovich? Who? Where were their offices located?

No, it was considered improper for a woman with high social status to anything other than a fair, pale complexion. They were supposed to look delicate.
