She didn’t even fall ill before she died. At 9 hours, 7 minutes, I thought her death was premature but Cassy was a difficult eater towards the end and pregnancies always seemed very hard on her. Her health even sat at a nice 60%. It wasn’t great, but it wasn’t awful, either.
The good news is that she’s survived by many eggs. They may have taken a toll on her, but I’m sure she’d be happy knowing she had so many children.
Speaking of having children, Mallory had a following of norns and a grendel by her side. It seemed like everyone was excited to see her egg. In fact, I guess Peony felt left out and decided to have an egg of her own, too! I now had two pregnant norns on my hands and this had me doubly excited. Perry, our excited, and happy father paced back and forth as Mallory started to lay her egg and add it to our impressive collection. Out popped this little blue thing and soon I was focusing on Peony. Including the egg Peony would soon have, we had 11 on our hands now. That’s a lot! Finally, she laid her egg and it joined the others.
Of course, I had to start thinking about introducing a new baby to the world. I could hatch one of the existing eggs or add a generation 1 baby. The gender ratio was pretty even so it really didn’t matter what I chose, in that regard. One thing was clear, though. I had to get some food in Mallory’s belly. Her health dipped as low as mid 30%!
