The game rolled-back and, as it turns out, Opal was going to die anyway. I’m a little bummed out that she can’t join us in the fresh world, but here we go anyway.
Things were a little bit of a mess getting started. There was a lot of slapping, a lot of kissing and a lot of chaos. Amidst the chaos however, Lydia managed to become pregnant.
While I waited for Lydia to lay her egg, I glimpsed Grub below, taking a nap on his way from the hooch still.
After Lydia laid her egg, I decided to add just a few food sources and leave it at that. No more refrigerator, no learning aids till eggs started hatching, nothing. I added Muppetboy’s carrots and watched the world play out.
David and Cassy were in the house together and, not long after David had his nap, I decided that the pair should try for an egg. Lydia was already over 12 hours old and was coming to the end of her life soon, so another egg couldn’t hurt. In fact, as I fed Aidan, Lydia passed away riding on the automatic wagon beneath the ocean. It was more than a little saddening to see her go, but she led a happy life.
The next baby I introduced was a son of hers, though. This is Perry, son of Lydia and Gavin. What a broad smile! It’s always a treat when a baby has such a big smile on its face right on import, er hatching.
As he learned his words with them, David and Cassy decided to have an egg. Maybe if we’re lucky, her egg got some education while it was in her belly, huh?
I did realize something, though. With Perry in the world, the sex ratio was wildly out of whack. Cassy was our only girl! She had to share Albia with Adian, David, Bobby, Danny and Perry! I’m sure she wouldn’t mind, but I’m still a little dumbfounded. Oh well. I guess I could look at this as a way to slow down egg production a little bit. With one egg in the world and 9 babies on hold waiting to be imported, I still had quite a few young ones to welcome.
