Her Royal Majesty posted this sad news on the Kingdom of Calontir Facebook page today:

Calontir,

As you may have discovered last night, or are just waking up this morning to find out, we have suffered a tragic loss.

We lost one of our own, Fiora della Pace in a senseless accident yesterday. Her birth family and her Calontir family will all be mourning at this joyful light all too quickly snuffed out. While I was not yet blessed enough to call her a close friend, I know we all are feeling the agony at her loss. Her infectious smile, joyous nature, and sweet temperament cannot but leave a hole in our hearts. We will all grieve her loss, but the grieving will hurt us all less if we come together and help each other through this tough time.

I would ask you all to take a few moments to do something wonderful in her memory over the next few days and months. And I would ask you all to drink a toast in her memory. May she live forever in our hearts.
