The 3 judges were Constance R. Hamming, Cody G. Major and Alfonso Blumington. After several testimonies, the judges found Joe Hawk guilty in stealing the serum and the Warehouse pay items. The matches case was too old, and lacked both evidence and witnesses.
Court decided that Joe Hawk had to pay §1000 to the Maccaroni Bank (Warehouse owner), plus §500 to Greench Market. But the old man claimed being innocent, refusing to pay a single simoleon to anyone, so instead he was sent to jail for 5 simdays!
Joe Hawk is the first person to use the prison cell, in the House of Law's basement. The cell is poorly equipped, and the prisoner depends on relatives or friends stopping by, bringing some food. Agnes visited this morning, mostly to check that her husband was still alive, because it meant they had been married for more than 10 simdays, and if Joe Hawk died now, Agnes would be his rightfully heir.
At 4 Yea-Low Ring, Amadeus realized that someone had to feed the parrot Emmy, now that dad was in prison and mom was visiting him. Amadeus is already a child, with traits Neurotic, Artistic and Unlucky. His younger brother Grim is still just a toddler, with traits Eccentric and Slob.
In the western region, at 6 Redward Heights, Rosanne Redward was busy harvesting the garden. It is harder to make a living from selling horses than ranch owner Randal Redward expected, so an additional idea is to grow Flame Fruit to be sold as exclusive lamps! They now focus on expanding the plot, this far they only have 4 plants. When they reach 10 plants, each fruit will be sold for §100. This fruit isn't grown anywhere else, not even at the Greench Farm.
Rosanne had a plan for this day. Ever since she was a little girl and played with a puppy at the Greench Farm, she had been wanting a dog. She never shared her Father's interest in horses.
A little later she walked over to the southern region to check if any available dog would be of interest.
When passing by the Village Hall she noticed a group of locals protesting loudly. What was that about? She didn't like the families living up north, they were poor fishermen, and lived in tiny houses. She had never been up there, only heard about her uncle Christopher who moved up there - by free will! Rosanne would never ever do anything like that! She noticed most of the group looked pale like the fishermen. They were probably hungry.
If Rosanne had stopped and paid attention, she would have found that the group protested up against her own Father, Randal, who the day before had announced that he would like to become a king. The old woman might look familiar - it's Bella B. Black who just turned elderly. She initiated the protests just to make sure thar Randal dropped his idea. She didn't trust that he would take a no from the council as a no.
Rosanne finally reached the flower man's house. This is where she played with a puppy long ago.
Rosanne got the dog Charlie for free. Cody G. Major has two more dogs, and was very pleased that Charlie would get a new home.
At 9 Yea-Low Ring, Dorothy and Alex Yea-Low recently had their 4 child. Their oldest son, Reynar, soon pushing young adulthood, enjoys inventing stuff, just like his dad and his dad again. Reynar was also the one who came up with the sun reflector idea on top of the mountain. The reflector is still sending a long light shot far into the sky, most nights. But to little avail it seems. Reynar's traits are Athletic, Genius, Hates outdoors and Artistic.
Yesador Yea-Low just became a teen, he took an interest in growing the garden. They grow grapes and lime fruits. Yesador's traits are Good, Genius, Loser and Light sleeper.
Richelle is just a little girl, fond of their dogs and cats, and also starting to try out various activities. Her traits are Coward, Genius and Virtuoso. She hardly ever painted, and well, she might be more into music than art.
Their mom, Dorothy, still is the only employee at the Health Care center. She just sat down in the reception office to talk with her brother Christopher R. Black. Working at House of Law, he is in charge of the prisoner Joe Hawk, and Christiopher worried a bit.
Not very long ago, the volcanic activity scared Randal's horse, made Randal fall off and wounding his head.
At the Redward Ranch, Randal had just tamed another wild horse, the brown stallion posing in front. Although the elderly horse Bliss next to the stable looks impressed, Randal's plan is to make the new horse breed with the black and white mare, Mizita.
Rosanne had brought the dog Charlie back home, and tried to get acquainted.
Several households already took advantage of hunting dogs. Not that they brought in the high values, but any simoleon counted. Dogs were usedful for hunting, giving wool for making textiles, and of course for guarding their family.
Corinne had been wondering since the Nectary was opened a couple simdays ago. They already owned the lot, but the installments were expensive. They already had a pretty big bank loan.
Because Randal and Corinne own 30% of the Maccaroni Bank shares, Randal has access to the bank's office in the Village Hall. So, he had actually borrowed nearly §22.000 but according to the bank account he owed just §10.000. This way they paid no interests of the final §12.000! He intended to pay back the money, but would do so whenever he would be able to.
Corinne was not convinced.
Future kings need to eat and drink. Randal rode over to the Nectary and found the bottle left there by LaShawn.
He served the nectar, and sat down to enjoy the pruit of his greedy plans.
Dorothy R. Yea-Low had returned from work. She found her husband, Alex, working on a big, rusty box.
But Agnes wasn't all alone. She just left the house together with Beetle. He had insisted on bringing toddler Grim, as well, but Agnes had protested. They left Grim in his crib, sleeping.
They walked north, up to the graveyard, up to the pond in the mountain, reaching the northern region.
I'm not totally sure - will Agnes follow Beetle, or will she try to escape her fate? Check back to find out in a short week! :-)
Glad to see this is finally getting someone. And since I've been away the next ones are up.
