 Ryder:  When David went out looking for his son, he made Cynthia promise not to waste a genie wish on him should he not return.  After a few days, she summoned up the genie and discovered that her son Isaac had indeed been killed by Ogres.  Luckily, they were able to bring him back.  In the absence of her father, Rebecca has taken over the market.  On her very first day, she had to defend herself against a terrible Ogre boy.

Dennis:  Life continues on, though everyone still misses Albert and would like to resurrect him, if only they had the means to do so.  Rachel grew into an adult and she's looking forward to moving out because she thinks it's absolutely disgusting the way her mother and uncle are carrying on.  She did meet the Tyler brothers recently, and really hit it off with them.  Maybe one of them is the key to her future?

Happy Simming!

 Tyler:  The boys met and hung out with Rachel Ryder.  She reminds them of their younger sisters, who they haven't seen in quite some time.

Mills:  It was hard enough when his brother disappeared and then his younger brother Isaac was killed by Ogres, but now Robert's beloved Bonnie has been taken from him as well.  His only comfort is the twins, though he's found it impossible to manage the bakery while caring for twin infants.  He's considering asking his sister Sarah to move in with him and help out with the babies.

Happy Simming!

Fromrac 1/8/24 (Spring Population Totals)

 At the beginning of every season, I tally the population of each "race" so that I can monitor the growth or decline of each.  Here are the spring totals:

Humans: 23 (+3 from winter)

Elves:  17 (-4 from winter)

Ogres:  12 (no change)

OutKasts:  6 (-2 from winter)

Sanguara:  3 (no change)

Lunari: 4 (+1 from winter)

Mortosa:  0 (-1 from winter)

Felan:  1 (+1 from winter)

Grand Total:  65 (-3 from winter)

Fromrac 1/8/24 (Elves, Ogres, OutKasts, Sanguara, Lunari, Felan)

 Myuswyn:  Nothing eventful.

Clan Gore:  The Ogres caught a Human (David Ryder) lurking around.  Swamplouse was able to get the jump on him and take him down before he was able to shout for reinforcements.

Clan Ergo:  The Ogre population has been all but decimated recently and they're fighting back.  This time, Grumus killed a Human female (Bonnie Ryder).

Ergo/Tyler:  No sooner did Carol Ann deliver her seventh child (a girl named Alice), than she discovered she's pregnant once again.  Luckily, the garden is thriving and they have plenty of food stored away as well.

First Family:  Nothing eventful.

Team #1:  The insemination was successful!  Now it's just a matter of waiting out the incubation period.

Pack A:  Rose is surviving, but it's a lonely existence with only her wolf friends for company.

Happy Simming!

Fromrac 1/7/24 (Elves)

 Sylnalyn:  Nimrae's daughter Baelri was snatched by a band of Ogres, and they haven't seen her since.  The family is terribly worried that the girl has met her end.  They've heard the genie lamp they have in their possession could bring her back, but they've also heard there's a risk involved.

Fistaelas:    The Council has put the Elves under strict orders to capture as many Ogres as possible, as the Blood Fruit Farm is running low on workers.  Therspar got into a fight with an Ogre, but was unable to capture him.  He also thought he spotted a Felan - a creature that only exists in legends - but it must have been his imagination; everyone knows Felan do not exist.

Happy Simming!

Fromrac 1/6/24 (Elves)

 Blood Fruit Farm:  Spring means it's planting time at the farm.  The Ogres work from dawn to dusk, fertilizing, planting, and tending to the blood fruit plants.  Unfortunately, they're now down one pair of hands, as the elder male Ogre succumbed to old age and passed on.  Shaaias has noticed, however, that the younger female is pregnant again, so at least he'll have another worker in time.  At the shop, he encountered two Ogres, one of whom escaped from the farm a few years ago, but he was unable to capture them.

Happy Simming!

Fromrac 1/2/24 (Humans)

 Tyler:  Nothing of note.

Mills:  Bonnie gave birth to boy/girl twins - Daniel and Robin.  Robert was able to get back to the bakery.

Ryder:  David and Cynthia's son Isaac went fishing one afternoon and never returned.  They fear the worst.

Dennis:  Cheryl has discovered she's pregnant!  She'd love nothing more than to marry Brian but unfortunately, he's still legally married to her sister.  Brian just wants to be the best father he can to the children he has left for as long as he can.

Lane:  Jenna grew into a teen.  Holly is still plugging away at the pottery shop, though she still can't make the giant pots that her husband was able to make.  Customers keep asking for them, but she just can't deliver.

Happy New Year!  And Happy Simming!
