I'm wondering how different we would be if we remained on the native path of growth, instead of uniting the Kingdom with Lithuania. But anyway, this love story is so wonderful.

Apparently Hedwig was in love with Wilhelm. He came with his retainers to take her against her caretakers, and the struck an axe at the door to break it. Legend has it that they never met, but the one told by the tourist guides says that they've sent one night together.

ah, you are so romantic...

it's a legend... the truth about their love probably is short, boring and not even a bit exciting...

but, yeah... good story...
