Three of the males were still in the island’s under water glass bubble, Peony was still playing with one of the island’s lifts and Cassy was bother Danny, who only wanted to sleep and walked away

Cassy shouldn’t be having a baby now anyway with her health the way it is. At 54%, I wasn’t optimistic she’d survive a pregnancy, nevermind the chance of getting sick afterwards. As the only fertile female, she had an important role, too! Stubborn as she was, she didn’t do much eating to help her situation. I did manage to help her get her health back up to 60% before I was content to leave her alone.

Danny eventually escaped to the island by way of submarine and I guess he must have enjoyed the trip. He took the submarine back and forth a few times before settling on the island. The island’s inhabitants took a similar course, going back and forth between the two piers in that tiny boat.

They didn’t seem to enjoy their trip quite so much as Danny enjoyed his, though. Such a tiny boat couldn’t have been comfortable, seeing as 4 norns all had to share it.

Eventually, Peony seized the opportunity to take the boat back and forth by herself. Though she complained of tiredness, she didn’t seem too interested in resting.

By now, all of the males were on the island with Peony and Cassy was by herself near the lemons. She was eating on her own and her health had made a fantastic recovery.

She seemed to take better care of herself when I wasn’t around. I was glad to see her eating, but I only wished she’d do it when her health really needed it, too!

Sometimes, it’s just hard to comment on Creatures when things are going smoothly. Even with the threat of Death Cap in the last Creatures 1 update, things were going pretty well for everyone.

A long, peaceful period like this is usually a good indicator that it’s time to introduce somebody new, though. All safe and clear? Let’s hatch an egg.

And by that, I mean let’s import one of the previous babies. This time, it’s a little lady who I’ve named Peony. She was good and learned all her words right away. She even ate a carrot and since her lessons were done, I let her go to roam and interact with the other Norns.

It was when I was trying to feed Cassy and Danny that I got the bad news.

Aidan had passed away at the ripe old age of 13 hours, 17 minutes. At least he spent his last hours with his favorite companions, the bees. He seemed to really enjoy their company for some reason. Perhaps it was the abundance of food? Maybe he liked to watch them? Whatever the case, he died a healthy, happy old norn.

None of the current norns seemed especially shaken by this news but then, Aidan was alone at the time. Perhaps they hadn’t noticed. Still, he fathered many of the creatures alive now, and his genes would live on.

The slowdown in eggs was nice and I was tempted to have more groups like this – a high concentration of one sex but only one member of the other at a time. Of course, I would have to alternate this to keep the sexes well balanced, but I didn’t want to get overwhelmed with eggs. I still hadn’t decided with to do with them, short of posting them for adoption or eliminating them.

Cassy didn’t seem to be in any rush to have any more eggs, though, which, in a way, was good.

What wasn’t good was finding that Danny had eaten some of the Death Cap mushroom below the swamp. He slept and Cassy got in the way, but I watched his health drop. He did manage to eat some honey and he stared at a carrot for a long time before finally eating it. With his health on the up again, I was finally comfortable to let him fall asleep. Good thing I noticed!

Bobby, David and Perry spent their time on the island looking at parsnips and tickling each other and Aidan was by the bees, enjoying his endless supply of honey. Cassy still loitered by the clock in the tree and a quick peek at Danny showed that he was still sleeping near the air tram. While he snoozed, I tried to send him Aidan’s way so that the two could have some company but Danny woke before arriving and moved it back to the right.

Just then, Aidan’s age creeped up to 13 hours. I started to speculate that he’d been paused when he went catatonic in a previous world. The poor old guy was in a state, but the event might have contributed to his longevity. Who knows, now? In any case, I wondered how old he would bet before he finally passed away.
