1.14 Afterword

Congratulations, you finished Part 1! Things moved quickly because I had a bunch of screenshots piled up. I was writing fast to catch up to the point I was in the game, while still playing, which was constantly adding to my queue!

Before I start Part 2 I want to give quick updates on the rest of the family. Here’s the family tree so far:

Trella’s older brother Tristan has four children. (Tristan and Valentina are elders now). The youngest, twins Amelia and Aidan, are in their teens.

Amelia has the evil trait, and Aidan has the slob trait. What a duo!

Shortly after this photo, Trella got a text from Tristan that simply said he and Valentina divorced (thanks, Neighborhood Stories) and that’s all I know at this point. I don’t plan on playing them or the twins but I’m sure they’ll make appearances in the storyline.

Their oldest child, Natalia, left college early because she got hired as a journalist and wanted to jump straight into work. At the same time, her slightly younger brother Jordan aged up to young adult and the two of them split an apartment in San Myshuno together.

While visiting Tartosa and digging up gossip for a scandalous wedding article, Natalia met the romantic Faiz Jaleel. They became an item and he moved in. Jordan met Freya Loden from Nordhaven and they bonded over their shared Self-Assured trait. They started dating and she also moved in.

The four of them are stuffed into a two-room apartment but all working to get out on their own. I do hope to check in on them occasionally, but with Neighborhood Stories on, we’ll see what happens.

Now it’s time to move along and let Isis steal the spotlight. Buckle in, because Part 2 is gonna be a roller coaster!

    So much work went into making that family tree. I salute you.

    I did not miss that part about Amelia and Aidan’s traits. Yikes!

      Amelia and Aidan are cute! I want to play ALL the family but it’s too much for me playing rotationally when trying to tell a story. So we’re gonna focus solely on the daughter, Isis. When she aged up to teen, I was literally STUNNED by how beautiful she is! And her story is definitely juicy with lots of ups and downs. I have so many posts already written but trying to space them out by a few days atleast haha. THANK YOU for reading everything! You’re my first reader/commenter on my new website. Doing a happy dance lol.

        Not at all. Thanks for sharing your gameplay and creativity. I’m looking forward to Gen 4 and Isis’s adventures!

    What a journey🍿 I was a bit bummed to hear that Tristan and Valentina got divorced. He eventually lost that gorgeous woman, ah boy 😭

    But I’m happy to see Natalia got her life sorted out, and that the rest of the family seems to be settling into life as well ❤️

      Honestly when the notification popped up, my first instinct was to exit the game without saving. BUT then I reminded myself that’s part of life and at least it happened when the kids were all mostly grown.

      Awwwe! That means so much coming from such an established writer like yourself 😉 Part 1 was just for fun but part 2 is where I’m starting to write more seriously and really honing my storytelling skills!
