I hate to admit it, but things were starting to slow down and I wanted to see more than just Norns in this world. I didn’t have any intent to breed grendels or ettins but the diversity is nice. That said, I went ahead and hatched a male ettin named “Ett”. I led him into the Norn Terrarium with the other creatures and he seemed to fit right in already.
Not moments after his introduction, Jane was pregnant again. William would be the father of this egg. Then, just before Jane laid her egg, Ett was killed. It seemed Percy and William didn’t like Ett much and I hardly had time to rescue the poor guy because I was preoccupied with Jane.
Jane was happy to restore the population a bit, though since she became pregnant again! It seemed like she would be the most important norn of the run since Susan didn’t seem to have any interest at all in breeding.
This didn’t do much to cheer me up so instead, I introduced a pair of Friendly Banshee Grendels to the bunch. I named the male Paulie and the female Henrietta. Susan didn’t seem too keen on either of them but they were better able to care for themselves, at least. I watched them more closely than Ett and punished Percy and Susan when they started terrorizing poor Paulie. Henrietta at least seemed to be faring much better. She only had William and Geoffrey to bother her and they weren’t especially active. Oh, but where was Jane?
