Eventually, it had to happen. Someone other than Lydia had to get sick. This time, it’s poor Bobby. Luckily, his illness seems to be less serious than nearly all of Lydia’s. Before he even had to eat, the illness worked its way out of his system. That said, it didn’t stop him from playing that fun “run away from what you’re holding in your hand” game that norns like to play sometimes.
I collected Cassy’s egg and before Bobby was back in good health, Opal decided to have another egg. These ladies have always moved quickly, I have to say. To save time, I opted for a CSection which, tragically, seems to have killed poor Opal! Oh no!
This makes me very sad. I hadn’t expected this to go so poorly. I really only wanted to save time so that I could do the soft reset before any more norns got pregnant or sick. I’m sorry, Opal. I wish I’d known this could kill you.
Still, I had to start the world fresh so I couldn’t linger and grieve. After hatching the eggs and exporting the babies, I had 10 unnamed babies to introduce in the future. That’s a very large number. I would have to decide what to do with the little darlings but posting them for download wasn’t attractive.
That’s something to wonder for later, I suppose. For now, Opal’s death has got me down.
