Then Lawrence  interrupts stopping you to say hi, and you lose your chance with her. Ultimate payback is when you really start to smell and need a shower. But you carry on regardless because he is your little brother who you haven’t seen in ages

When you see your  big brother in a towel!                                                                       (BTW this woman in the red towel kept following them both around it was hilarious)

Please put some clothes on Caiden! How much more embarrassed can he get?

1.2 Zaiden’s Family

So in the next few updates we will be seeing a lot of Zaiden’s family. I thought it would be best to introduce them to you beforehand. As it maybe confusing with who is who in brief pictures and captions. Be prepared he has a very large and complicate family tree!  Family tree.

1. The Dove Legacy

I have been so inspired by my last part that I have decided to start a Legacy told just through pictures: A picturacy. I will post some written updates however most will be images. I would like to introduce you to my founder: Zaiden Dove.

05-23-17_10:33:33 PM

Traits: Self Assured, Kleptomaniac, Goofball, Muser.

His aspiration is to be a Best Selling Author. He currently works in the Journalism career and is a level 4 Writer. I have made the legacy harder by starting it in the middle of his young adult life stage. He is the son of my original legacy founder Jaime Dove and one time fling Nancy Landgraab. Being one of my favourite sims of all time, I thought I would give him his dream of founding a legacy like his father. (As his sister inherited that right.) So Zaiden packed up his bags and took over the piece of land that his mother gave to him, since she has moved to Willow Creek, after their house renovations went wrong.

Part Thirteen: Kaden

It wasn’t by chance that I was told by my sister to be a spy. Although we were born of the same mother we looked nothing alike. Both of us favoured our fathers, Susie looked somewhat like our mother, but I could easily have been another woman’s son. I always wondered who my father was, he died upon my birth. A life for life something the Amazons had believed in for centuries.

05-14-17_6:14:45 PM

Susie had wanted me in this tribe to be her eyes and ears. I refused. I was nothing like her. So as punishment she decided to gift me to Piper, start again she said from nothing. In truth I was glad to be away from them, I had never really known Piper although my mother practically raised her from her arrival. Slaves were meant to be seen and not heard. Piper was different from the tribal daughters and my sister she believed in letting slaves voice their own opinions. Always helping us with the chores quietly in the night.  It was different where she was from. She had two parents who loved her, something I had always wanted. She may have not noticed me but I did her.

05-14-17_6:23:23 PM

It wasn’t just the way she treated us, but her heart’s genuine kindness, that’s why she was my mother’s favourite. Susie made out that giving Piper her own tribe was mum’s idea but it was just her way of getting rid of her. Reduce any claim Piper had to being Creator. Susie hated her with a secret vengeance and it was only now becoming apparent to Piper.

05-14-17_6:17:54 PMBeing part of the Waters tribe was the best thing to happen to me. I am respected and have rights. We may only be small but we will fight. I will fight for her. As I have gotten to know my Creator over the last nine months, I have respected the quiet way she carries herself, her patience with Sofia and her beautiful smile. I don’t when it happened, but months of being alone together just did. I shouldn’t even be feeling this way, but when Milan was sent by Creator Hanale I felt the jealousy seep through. And now my sister was going to send me away to my death. When in this tribe I would be free, perhaps even have the chance to see my child grow with the person I wanted. She was going to force my Creator into a future she did not want. Make her breed with him- “No never.” I shouted, it would not happen. Not to me or the Creator I loved.

05-14-17_6:24:42 PM

Part Twelve: Decision Time

It had taken four months for the tribes to come to a decision, it had been much longer than anyone anticipated. Tribes always seemed to work in this manner, the Creators wanting to take time to decide for their tribe’s best interests. Over the last few months I had taken up exercise as a way to distract myself. If there was to be a war, I would need to be able to defend my tribe. 05-03-17_4:44:37 PM

05-03-17_4:50:55 PM

After five months of silence, Hanaele finally scheduled a meeting. Except she wanted it to just be me and her.  I was nervous, I hoped it wouldn’t just be bad. When I arrived Hanale was in the kitchen cooking, the fact she had a knife out scared. Perhaps she didn’t agree and wanted to make a threat I had no idea.

“So I wanted to talk, Milan is currently living with me. Susie and I have met, she refuses to breed with him.”

“Why did you want me here? I asked as she continued to mix the salad.”

“I have a new proposal, you breed with my cousin. I will provide his younger brother to her at a time of her choice. That way we avoid war and our tribes will be connected- stronger. Kaden her brother will breed with me. You can then be free of their tribal influence and be connected to us forever. “

05-03-17_4:51:42 PM05-03-17_4:52:11 PM

It surprised me that the two Creators had got together without my knowledge. They had hated each other for so long, I could only guess that I had hurt Susie. She had made Hanale suggest this, choosing not be present. I knew that I had be careful. I was pushed into a corner, it would only short amount of time before I would have to agree. I had no choice, my tribe was small and still building. Nothing compared to the both tribes together.

“Let me consult my tribe, give Kaden the choice”, I bit back bitterly. “Why did you meet without me? And how dare Susie not be here to tell me this herself.”

“She had a meeting with travellers today. “

“I’ll be back with my decision tomorrow.”

05-03-17_4:54:05 PM

Sitting round the fire I explained the situation to Kaden and Sofia.

“How can they do this?” Sofia asked.

Kaden wasn’t happy. We had become close in the first few months of the tribe. Although he was a slave he had also become my trusted advisor and friend. He had experienced more tribal life than me, being the son of a a Creator meant he knew about politics. Arriving back to the fire he sat down between Sofia and I. “My sister should have not done this, she has disrespected you as my Creator. I will not have it! She has no rights to decide what happens to me. You are my Creator. It is your decision only.”

“What do you propose we do Kaden? I have been threatened and forced into this position.”

05-03-17_8:17:09 PM

You will not breed with him. He is a rake, always had been. I will not allow it!” he stormed off muttering to himself.

05-03-17_8:17:21 PM

“Kaden!” I shouted after him.

Part Ten: The Mother Tribe

The one thing about Susie’s proposal to start my own tribe had been that I would always have to answer to the mother tribe: The Waters tribe. If Avalon were alive it would be a lot easier, but now I realised I needed to think like her. What would Avalon do? She would commission a meeting.04-09-17_9:47:43 PM04-09-17_9:52:03 PM

I managed to convince Hanaele to have a meeting with Susie at the Waters tribal grounds. I was nervous but knew it was the right to do.

   “Why did you want this meeting Piper? It’s not like our tribes don’t get on.” Susie asked.

“I want to create a tribe alliance.”

“What?? With Susie.”

Hanaele has offered me, Milan one of her tribes to form an alliance. I know if I do this it will cause problems.”

“What I don’t get is why Hanaele is here?”

04-09-17_9:51:26 PM“I want Hanaele to give Milan to you as a breeding slave. This will then provide an alliance between the families. Your other tribal women can use him for that purpose. He then will be free to return to his original tribe.”

    “In what way will this benefit you Piper? “

      “I don’t want to start a war by accepting the gift. It is not good for the tribes. I will agree to be in alliance and provide a monetary sum to it. My terms for that will be that my tribe will be free from mother tribe. I won’t have to report back to anyone and be free.”

“Have a think about it and let me know. “

Upon leaving Susie had a talk with Milan which surprised me. I had thrown them a curveball which they had to think about. Hopefully we would avoid war, and I would secure my tiny tribe’s future.
