I've finished the game four times, but my first Warden, after Awakening...
Aleyna Cousland returned to Denerim a year and a day after her mysterious disappearance, and the people of Ferelden never knew where their queen had been in that time. Some said she'd gone chasing after the notorious witch Morrigan in Orlais. Others said that she'd been all the way to Weisshaupt on some secret Warden mission. A few whispered that she'd gone to Antiva to dally with the famed assassin Zevran Aranai. Those closest to her suspected that she had been trying to find a magical cure for the infertility that afflicted her.
If so, she had not found one - Aleyna never bore Alistair an heir, and in time it became clear that the Theirin line would be truly extinguished with his passing. Alistair refused to put his queen aside and take another wife, to the frustration of many among the Ferelden nobility. However, with decades to prepare, the monarchs did their best to ensure that there was a clear line of succession. It was made known that they wished the throne to pass to the Cousland family through Aleya's nieces and nephews, Fergus Cousland having.remarried by this time to carry on the family name. This was not a choice that everyone approved of, and it caused much disagreement among the Arls and Banns.
This was not the only controversy during the last Theirin reign. Queen Aleyna's insistence on the granting of a homeland to the Dalish elves did not please all, especially when so many humans had been displaced by the Blight and the civil war. Even more outrageously, she made both Elder Valendrian and the mage Wynne court advisers - the first time in living memory that elves and magic users had served the monarchs officially.
Although daily control of the Grey Wardens at Vigil's Keep was placed in the hands of others after the defeat of the Mother, both Alistiar and Aleyna kept a close eye on Amaranthine in the following years. The Wardens' numbers in Ferelden grew steadily under their watch.
Aleyena's faithful Mabari lived to an impressive old age. Whenever she left her husband's side, Aleyna gave her hound strict instructions to keep a close eye on him and not allow the kingdom to be burned down in her absence. He was the founder of a whole dynasty of Ferelden warhounds, and many an Ash Warrior boasted possession of a beast descended from his line.
Eventually, King Alistair began to suffer the effects of the Calling. While her own time might have stretched a few months or years longer, Aleyna would not leave her husband's side this time, and they walked into the Deep Roads together. What happened there is the subject of song and story, but no more is truly known of them.
Fem Noble Warden is infertile? When does THAT happen?
Not just her, possibly him too. The joining makes them less fertile. Apparently its impossible for two grey wardens to have children.
Its one of the reasons Alistair gives for breaking up if he's not hardened. He also mentions it as a concern if he is hardened and the PC is marrying him.
That's all from memory and on little sleep and not enough coffee - if someone has more info feel free to correct me
