Lastly, Tippy Dawn stomped up to the king and demanded he do something about her missing son. "I know he's here! If you're hiding him-"

Bernike cringed. Oh boy...

"How DARE you!? Who do you think you are? Leave my presence this instant! You're nothing but a madam in a brothel, I'm not surprised the boy fled from the shame of it. Come here again and I'll see to it that you're punished!"

With that, petitions were closed for the week.

There's the Arndt I know! Him and Tippy argued IMMEDIATELY.

By that point Katinka has drifted downstairs to practice the lute. It's one of her favorite things to do and she doesn't even mind doing to for the entertainment of their guests.

[clouseplayssims]

Not that her annoyance has slowed down Katinka's attempts to pursue half the teen girls in the kingdom. She's incorrigible!

[clouseplayssims]

The next time we see this family Katinka will have gone to the cloister and Salome will have returned. Which means Salome's future is fast approaching...

Arndt Blumenthal

Bernike Blumenthal

Katinka Blumenthal

Isidor Blumenthal

Lara Blumenthal

Lisolette Blumenthal

Freckles the Dog (no profile, but STILL FAMILY)

[clouseplayssims]

While she has been getting up to a bit of mischief, sneaking out and such, Katinka does sit down and study when her mother asks it of her. Not that she thinks it matters - she's going to be an Archduchess, sure, but everybody knows that her a Taliesin will be figurehead leaders for a long time while Sia Bellamy really runs the show.

[clouseplayssims]

Ledaleane Smith, an indentured servant, ideally should have approached more humbly as Amalie had both done and advised, but she was a sharp-tongued woman with buckets of pride and instead smiled confidently while laying out her wish to open a pottery shop selling her wares. This would put her in competition with the Gregg family... but Arndt thinks that might be a good thing!

Bernike and Isidor can't believe how audacious the Smith woman was, but Arndt approved the request before they could truly object.

[clouseplayssims]

Humbly, Joseph Hartman approaches the throne. He wishes for his family to advance in society, which means purchasing the title of baron. But this must be approved by the crown - something Katinka thinks is a no brainer - and thankfully, Arndt sees no issues with the Hartman family becoming nobility.

The cost will be $50,000, which goes directly to the Blumenthal family.

[clouseplayssims]

Young as she is, Lisolette has to stay up in the gallery, but she's curious about the proceedings and sneaks a look over the bannister.

[clouseplayssims]

Alojzy, the Earl of Blumenthal, is petitioning for more regular patrols of the Edirann borders. He asks that all travelers provide paperwork when traveling between Penrith, Tenby, and Edirann to ensure any troublemakers and criminals are preventing from entering their kingdom.

His passionate plea was sparked by the kidnapping of his wife, a topic of heated debate among commoners and nobles alike, and there's a murmur of agreement amogst the waiting crowd.

Bernike thinks this is an excellent idea - and it's her immediate assent that almost guarentees that Arndt's temper doesn't flare up. He agrees to provide more soldiers for patrols and to begin the discussion of traveling papers with his future son-in-law Taliesin Kenton.

Reluctantly, he'll also need to speak with Daega Oriol of Penrith, but it will be done.

I was worried Arndt would be grumpy, because he's a brooding loner with three whole nice points, but he seemed all too happy to agree! As a reminder Alojzy is Arndt's first cousin.

In keeping in line with her girls-just-wanna-have-fun attitude, Nogah sneaks out with Katinka.

[clouseplayssims]

I did the Kenton great-grandchildren too - I'm surprised how tall most of them are! I randomize all heights and bodyshapes (even if I don't implement bodyshapes in my game) but somehow they're all pretty close?

Katinka is the teensiest, while Gareth is the tallest.

(I color coded them by sibling groups if you're curious.)

1, 27, 34, 39 for the characters ask game, pretty please? :)

1 All Loving Hero

Nazario Fiore (formerly Drago) really is the Arthurian ideal of knighthood. He's perfect. Even his enemies admire his abilities - and not just physically, but his capability to do the right thing no matter the personal cost. It's why he finds himself now married to the daughter of a Kenton by-blow, believing it is his duty to continue to support the family. And when a member of that family needed help with her brewery and an heir... Nazario complied.

He's even found it in himself to forgive the actions of Arndt Blumenthal, even though those actions arguably ruined Nazario's life. Not only was he prevented from going down with his king, but in the end he was stripped of his knighthood. A normal man would be furious, but Nazario buts little faith in things like titles. He knows who he is, even if that person is a stranger to him at the moment.

27 Imposter/Pretender

Might be a stretch, but Salome... inwardly, she pretends she's still the heir to her father's kingdom. That it will be her, and not her little brother, who will continue the family line. After all - she was trained for years as the Crown Princess, a title given to her with the expectation she would lead, would rule.

And now there's Isidor who has taken everything by virtue of his birth.

She's too good of heart to resent him for it, but nor can Salome find it in herself to stop pretending. It's going to hurt her some day.

34 Lovable Rogue

I can't do Garrett again. BUT. I can do the original troublemaking teen: Connor Dawn. Raised by priests even at an early age he had no intention of joining a holy order. He sowed mischief where he could, even corrupted the son of a duke! And then, just like mist, he fled the area for exploits overseas.

No one is really sure what he did while he was away, or why he's returned, but this criminal mastermind plans on keeping that information close to the chest.

39 Manic Pixie Dream Girl

Okay, technically I shouldn't be picking a lesbian for this one, but out of all my teen girls Katinka Blumenthal has the most love interests so here we are.

A lot of people see her status first, how can they not? Secondborn princess to a new dynasty of rulers... impossible to ignore. But Katinka is naturally charming, with the sort of winning manner that makes everyone around her feel welcomed - and warmly. Even when they are not.

It has caused some problems, minor for now, because Katinka flits through favorites like the butterfly she is, with no real understanding of how she makes people feel. If she did know, she admittedly probably wouldn't care, being a bit mean-spirited and a snob.

[clouseplayssims]

Ending on a slightly funny note - I hadn't yet seen a greeting between royalty and yeoman, but apparently it involves Katinka being like "Seriously peasant?" and making direct eye contact with her creator like it's The Office.

RoS: Graduate with honors from your Miss Manners Class - win 2 new friends.

Both girls came home from school with Rais and he earned his friends the old fashioned way rather than cheating, but huzzah! We're finally rebuilding relationships in this new version of Edirann.
