Early Life
Princess Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II was born Melbourne-Haven, Jackson; West Phoenicia at the Imperial Palace; the same palace as his father Emperor Glenton Gryphon-Bush II and other members of the Royal family.
She was the first born daughter and second child of Emperor Glenton Gryphon-Bush II and his first wife Queen Angelique Gryphon-Bush (nee De'Baroda).
She was baptised at the private chapel on the grounds of the Imperial Palace on 10th July 1998 by Most High Reverend Darius Mckay Spiritual leader of the True Path Faith.
Her godparents were Queen Aphrilis Sunbury-Bush (paternal aunt) and Aphrilis husband; Prince Consort Christian Sunbury who was also a Prince of the Kingdom of Widemeadow Isles.
Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II was born during the reign of her aunt Queen Aphrilis Sunbury-Bush, she lived with his parents at the Imperial Palace in Melbourne-Haven; Jackson and styled as a princess of West Phoenicia.
Queen Aphrilis Sunbury-Bush was fond of her newborn niece and while was officially a princess by birth she was also granted the newly created title of 1st Viscountess of Doll Valley; Savannah Grove.
During 2000 to 2010 Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II Philometar, her parents, her father's second wife and siblings were placed under close watch and house arrest by Queen Jezebel Tasman-Bush, another aunt, who had taken control of the throne and now ruled West Phoenicia after Queen Aphrilis had abdicated.
During the 5th West Phoenicia Civil War (2008-2010) all of the household and close friends were placed under house arrest with threats of death given if Thaddeus Gryphon invaded or if the family tried to flee. They were constantly required to pledge their loyalty to Queen Jezebel Tasman-Bush.
When her father ascended the throne as emperor in 2010, her style was changed from princess to princess royal.
Education
Until the age of 11, Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II Philometar was educated by private tutors within the Imperial palace or Seaxnéat Manor; a large country estate in the city-state of New Tudor that had been gifted to them. Always under the watch of his aunt Queen Jezebel Tasman-Bush.
When she was not under the care of her parents she was raised by her governess Lady Johanna Tran and private tutor Harry Kokaribb.
When the young princess was 9, her tutor Harry Kokaribb was murdered on the queens orders on allegations of espionage and subversion.
Lady Johanna Tran kept the girl updated on her education. Arsinoe excelled in foreign languages, ancient history, legal studies and literature.
After 2010 when her father took to the throne, she continued to be taught by private tutors within the palace.
However for her last two years of high school education she was sent to the Sacred Heart City Girls Grammar, where she boarded for two years. She continued her education, and enjoyed taking part in archery, fencing and was a keen observer of chariot races, where once she was granted permission she enrolled in a chariot trading sports program that was being conducted in the city-state of New Rome.
She graduated high school and enrolled in the University of New Rome where she obtained a degree in regional foreign languages hoping to assist in the foreign diplomacy office. As a future queen she believed this degree would assist her in international relations.
Personal Life
Like her brother-husband the princess has also represented West Phoenicia in the international sporting arena.
At the Games of the XI Olympiad hosted in Aeropag, Paripana, Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II was the official flag bearer. Many West Phoenician fans of the Olympics slammed the move to appoint the princess for the role, seeing as she was not a past athlete who usually held the honour of flag bearer.
Her entrance at the arena had tongues wagging over at the official West Phoenician Olympic News Channel.
Sources cited her grand entrance cost taxpayers over a million dollars. A newscaster for the Olympics Trey Devlin described the entrance as;
Princess Royal Arsinoe II Gryphon-Bush readied herself in traditional West Phoenicia royal garb. A gold diadem, diamond encrusted with a stunning outfit made from spun gold and silver and matching headdress. Atop of the pole with the crisp West Phoenicia flag was a solid gold Scorpion, a national symbol of West Phoenicia.
Standing regally behind her 6 of the best female dancers from Terpsichore College of Dance, in simple snow white flowing dresses, deadly nightshade the nation flower entwined in wreaths upon their heads. Each holding two sticks with white ribbons dipped in gold dust.
The entrance caused quite a stir among other nations at the over indulgences they went to for a simple entrance.
Her first official entry as an athlete began at the I Olympia Games held in Ilysea, Ilyseum. The princess was entered into the Chariot races under the Quadrigae event. There was some controversy surrounding her entry, chariot racing being a dangerous sport should not have been a sport a royal princess entered. However she pulled in a bronze for the natio with a time of 8:24.765. Narrowly missing the silver medal which finished on 8:24.746. For her courage in a dangerous sport members of the West Phoenician Feminist Party awarded her the medal of sporting excellence.
She appeared at the Games of the XII Olympiad which was hosted in Novonaya, Kelssek and Provinsk, Vekaiyu. She acted once again as the official flag bearer. At these games, she stood upon a chariot resembling a living goddess in a long flowing dress of light purple adorned with emeralds and sapphires, a diamond encrusted diadem upon her carefully braided hair. Which led many to believe she was a goddess incarnate.
The princess was again selected as flag bearer for the Games of the XII Olympiad hosted in Republica, Free Republics. The princess has stated to the West Phoenician media this would be her last time acting as flag bearer. She was again criticised by the media for holding the flag bearer status without actually being an athlete for the Summer Games delegation, Many felt she was chosen again due to the Gryphon-Bush Royal family heavily funding the West Phoenician delegation to appear at these games.
Marriage
Princess Royal Arsinoe Gryphon-Bush II Philometar married her husband and full blood brother Crown Prince Glenton Gryphon-Bush III Philopater on October 31st 2019 at the Spring Palace Chapel. They were married by True Path Spiritual leader Pontifex Angelika I Deo Deuotus.
The marriage caused quite a controversy in West Phoenicia as Emperor Glenton Gryphon-Bush II had returned to the West Phoenician royal tradition of marrying siblings which dates back over 300 years.
