Settlers of Simtaan 1.02

Week 2

 Random event: James held a yard sale while Annie was out fishing and sold her burgeoning collection of fossils. Perhaps it is fortunate there was only one item so far.

After a difficult pregnancy full of back aches and shouting, their daughter Bess is born early in the week. She soon proves to be an inquisitive toddler who loves her toy ducky and disdains the large plush bear it took much more effort to acquire. Annie must give up most of her time fishing and searching for new garden plants far from home in order to focus on child care. James still yells and talks to the toilet frequently, but is at least surprisingly helpful when it comes to potty training. However, other than that he is not any kinder to his daughter than he is to his wife.

Things between the couple have deteriorated to the point that Annie begins to contemplate divorce when she is most upset. Only her natural optimism and love for her daughter buoy her spirits.
