Yeah, the Callandile family has shrunken into no more than this. Looks sad, doesn't it?
Row 1: Fulvia Nixeira (slave, standing), Andile Callani (Head of the family, sitting), Vibiana Zima (slave, standing)
Andile's last living close family member, his daughter Sabina, moved out to marry the Emperor this round. She's now the Empress! Both Fulvia and Vibiana are new slaves, to replace dead Temitope and pregnant Antonia. Andile, being a good man but still having his honor, decided that he wouldn't let his unborn bastard grow up with him, but he wouldn't let it live as a slave either. So he arranged a marriage between Antonia and a Seoli plebeian, securing a decent life for the child.
The new slaves go straight for their main task - caring for the big Callandile farm. Since Andile has nothing better to do, it seems he takes it upon himself to care for the bushes.
Who would have thought that Andile would end up as such a lonely old man? It's really sad.
Suddenly...
Fulvia becomes my first-ever plantsim! Funny how I went through the Stone Age without a single one, only to get one in the civilized Roman Era...
The farming is hard work for Vibiana, who starts feeling very lonely.
... Let's change that to "goes completely crazy"...
What the heck? It's summer!
Fulvia celebrates her birthday into an elder alone in the bathroom.
Here she is, and she doesn't really look much like an elder.
Both Fulvia and the plants are thriving in symbiosis.
And at the Baths, Andile is the only one who actually bathes - Fulvia was busy gathering sunlight and love elsewhere.
So this branch of the family will die off? Seems really sad, but good at the same time since it will mean one less household? Lol
ReplyDeleteYes exactly, it will. There are lots of other Callani branches so it's not the end of the world, but a little sad, yes. I'm giving their house to the next Patrician boy who marries and needs a house so I don't have to build a new one xD
DeleteYou don't save your houses to the bin when you build them? It makes things a lot easier to do that.
DeleteSometimes I do, but I like the patrician houses to be unique :) All the slave apartment buildings are copies of the same though.
