ultimate apocalypse challenge | diary entry 3

UDC YR. 1301

Babies Philip and Izabella were born early into the year, completely healthy! Luckily, there were no complications for either the babies or Lilith.

Both Lilith and Ruben are ecstatic to welcome they're children but find it almost bittersweet with how fast they are growing up. The twins quickly grown accustomed to the chickens, even mimicking them when they would crow or cluck, to which would always confuse the chickens and usually scare them off...

It wasn't too long after, maybe a third into the year, when Lilith found out she was pregnant again. Although ready to welcome the new child with open arms just as she did with the twins, she almost feels conflicted about moving a tad too fast. Money was short, and their house was small.

And,,, Ruben had made an almost fatal mistake when trying to repair the fridge. His candle he was using for light ended up getting bumped too close to the wood and caught the whole thing on fire. Luckily, Ruben was able to put it out fairly quickly, though Lilith is still worried about another fire breaking out, moving every candle at least two feet away from the walls.

Although Lilith was none the wiser, (like many other villagers in town,) she met the infamous witch who lives down the street. She had whispered nonsense and somehow repaired the fridge almost instantly right in front of Lilith's eyes. Maybe she was just tired from all the farm work, the twins, and working through another pregnancy, so Lilith simply brushes it off. (as you can tell, i had too much fun giving the townies intense lore. TW: implied death (like the priest having three daughters before having a son, which he was then relieved only to find his son is fatally sick with only so many years to live.))

UDC YR. 1306

Content Warning: Pet and (mentioned) Child Death

The kids have been growing pretty fast now, the twins reaching five this year while Ben turned five months old. Izabella has been taking a bigger liking to the animals then Philip, but they both are frequently outside with their father while he is doing the farm work.

Sadly, another death had struck the family, and their dog, Wolfie had passed from old age. The kids were devastated, and Ruben is stuck grieving his two kids and dog now, trying to keep a calmer demeanor for his kids. Lilith seems to be in flat out denial about talking about any of it.

Instead, Lilith has been doubling down on teaching her kids the basic needs and manners to help them mature. ...Somehow Ruben managed to get struck with lightening twice... Let's just say he was pretty delirious, and Lilith had to strangle him into bed that night.

For the majority of the days, Ruben and Lilith have really just been trying to keep the kids busy now. Lilith has been slowly teaching Izabella to cook while Ruben is itching to take Philip fishing. Lilith is not letting him of course.

Quickly, Ben reached 2 and has taken to the mud and rain by full force. (it is so weird to look at a toddler standing and jumping and call it two- my brother was doing this at two but its still weird lol 😭) He is very curious about everything, and is in his "what's that?" phase much to Lilith's dismay.

Elise and Levi Weldon everybody <3

they are so in love, i’ve never gotten this moodlet and have no idea if it is from a mod or what- but he’s so in love

UDC YR. 1312

Guess who finally played sims again!! woah!! I forgot to check my google sheets and was supposed to age the quadruplets (i still call them that even though one is dead shh) so ignore that they didn't age up this year...

Winter is kicking their asses and Ulla keeps falling into the snow. Philip gave no shits and I love that. Anyways, already struggling with food with their garden only giving onions at the moment. And they can't hunt or forage right now because it has only been blizzards...

Finally got a photo of the last of Lilith's children... I think it's crazy I haven't done that yet. Ben has been entertaining the little ones a lot too even though Erilyn absolutely hate peek-a-boo... So maybe he is rather bullying them instead of entertaining... I don't know at this point.

Drama photos! Philip literally broke every single thing in the bathroom after bathing and pissing... What the fuck Philip. Ruben was not happy because he had to be the one to repair everything. (I forgot I had the mod where the kids could repair so I could have made him fix the problem he made... oh well.) AND THEIR NEIGHBOR HAS A CRUSH ON RUBEN?? maybe I pursue it and have a scandalous secret relationship... hm... tempting.

Lowri, Eino, and Eyra all got sick (Llazyneiph drama rolls shoutout) and now we wait for a bit to see if they perish from it! I fucking hope not I am going to lose my shit.

(Are we surprised I have a new shader again? No. No we aren't. I'm indecisive.)

Character Sheets !!

I need them both, help

Working on a save file for Willow Creek for the Ultimate Decades Challenge (1300s edition) by MorbidGamer!!

Serfs: serf was a peasant who was bound to a lord's land and was required to perform labor for the lord. Serfs were at the bottom of the social order and were treated similarly to slaves, but they could not be bought or sold. Serfs were given land for their family's needs, but they also worked on the lord's land, especially during busy times like harvest.

Fief: A fief was a piece of land granted to a lord's vassal in exchange for their service to the lord. The vassal would promise to fight for the lord and the lord would promise to protect the vassal. The vassal would oversee the serfs who worked the land.

I will update as I go along since I will be building everything myself for this challenge (i hate myself and am taking the hard route) and making original townies to give the full immersion of the challenge!

The willow creek map replacement shown in the screenshot is by MissChipsa and is completely free!!

(i gave up on finishing it for my udc playthrough, but im slowly working on it still since im probably gonna run the challenge again (i already love it im a history nerd in this sense))

UDC YR. 1303

So. Eventful year. Little happened, but uh. A lot happened. Major trigger warning; there is child death in this.

Poor Wolfie is growing older quickly, the family isn't sure how long he has left but are unsure how to bring it up with the kids because of how attached they are to him despite not having him for long. (Especially Philip with how he seems to never be in a room without Woflie.) Baby boy even made sure Wolfie was alright while Ruben bathed him.

Lilith, Izabella, and their close neighbor Constance got to hang out for a bit while Lilith knitted, mostly just catching up on what they have been up to while Izabella chimed in every now and then about whatever was on her mind of course.

Because of the growing household, and with plans for more children in the future, Ruben finally got enough wood to upgrade their house. Let's just say he was pretty proud of how it turned out.

Lilith found she is pregnant once more, now more than glad that Ruben upgraded the house when he had, their space was getting fairly small to house four at this point anyways. The extra loft was much needed.

Just when the family thought nothing bad could happen, Stuart sadly passed away overnight, just shy of turning two. His lungs had given out and there was no way to stop it. The twins don't really understand death, but they have come to realized that their little brother is not coming back.

It was not a fun way to finish off the year in any way, and Lilith has grown into a state of depression, growing sick with her pregnancy again. Of course, this leaves Ruben stressed out and worried about his wife and children. Even the dog refuses to leave the crib Stuart slept in, not having the energy to get up with his age.

UDC YR. 1308 (ROYAL EDITION)

I mostly played with the royals this year! It won't be very common that I do, but their children aged up and I thought I would check up on them.

Joan: Bea, I just don't know what to do. The entire town seems to hate me, haven't you noticed? Back home in Tartosa, I was well loved, it does not make any sense.

Beatrice: The people are different here, your grace. You know that King Edward is... Well, I mustn't say this if I want to live, if you understand what I am saying.

Joan: No, no, I understand. I just wish that they did not take it out on me. It's tireless behavior.

Jack: Mother, you will never believe it. I think I have fallen in love.

Joan: Jack... This is the third girl this week. It's Tuesday.

Jack: Well, yes, but this is the one this time. And she is actually a royal, so father would approve.

Joan: Your wife is already picked out, Jack...

Jack: Oh. Well then, I think I will fall in love with her when I meet her!

Joan: You've- You've already met her.

Edward: I've been at this for hours, good grief. Is this all of it then?

Luis: That's your first response of action, Your Majesty. There are dozens of others and there are letters from the other kingdoms wondering about which daughter the young prince is getting married to.

Edward: I still haven't done that. I already told Joan that the girl was picked out, has it not been yet?

Luis: No, Your Majesty, you never looked at the letters or the lineup of princesses yet.

Edward: I swear I will have died by the time I finished all of this. I am done for the day, Luis, tell everyone I am not here.
