Sachi ended up staying in Hanalei for a week. She rented the most decent-looking cottage she could find and cooked her own simple meals. One way or another, she had to get her old self back again before returning to Japan. She bought a vinyl chair, sunglasses, a hat and sunscreen, and sat on the beach every day, watching the surfers. It rained a few times each day - violently, as if someone were tipping a huge bowl of water out of the sky. Autumn weather on the north shore of Kauai was unstable. When a downpour started, she would sit in her car, watching the rain. And when the rain let up, she would go out to sit on the beach again, watching the sea.

-Haruki Murakami

• will keep the relationship with you a secret and will only reveal it to the public after a year or two. • prior to revealing the relationship to the public, dates are mostly going over each other's apartment, going out with a group of friends and reserving a table at one of the private rooms of celebrity owned restaurant or bar. • home dates are just basically cooking dinner together, ordering take out, watching dramas or variety show programs, doing each other's skincare or just drinking coffee / hot chocolate while admiring the stars in the night sky. • but after going public, dates have finally become more free - shopping together, setting up a picnic near the river, going out for coffee in between busy schedules and such. • nijiro comes to your group's comeback concert / comeback showcase as an audience among the crowd. your fans / fandom will immediately recognize him, secretly taking pictures of him in his seat before gushing on social media how he's watching your event. • does he come empty handed? nope! after the concert / showcase, he'll enter the backstage with bouquets of flowers and a cake with a congratulatory message written with icing. • nijiro knows that some may be happy of him entering a relationship, he also knows that some wouldn't be happy with the idea of it. so he clearly explains to his fans that he draws the line between fans cheering for them and fans prying on their private lives. • always assures you that you are worth it despite the hate comments you receive online. his heart pains when he sees you cry over something that is beyond his control. nijiro can only do so much. • eventually leads him to asking his company to take legal action with the malicious comments attacking you online. he isn't doing this for himself, he's doing this for you. • if he can't attend to one of your schedules because of conflicting schedules, he'll send a food delivery to the studio you are in. so that not only you but your group members and crew are enjoying as well. • takes candid pictures of you - under your chin, you sleeping with your mouth slightly open, you frowning - and he makes memes out of those. • says he's helping your fans by giving them new memes to use! • if you're on tour and going a thousand miles away from him, facetime dates is gonna arise! even if you two aren't talking and are just watching what the other does, it's alright for him. • doesn't even mind if you've fallen asleep on him. he knows how much effort you put into rehearsals and he wishes you nothing but the best. • after returning home from the tour overseas, he dotes on you - tubs of ice cream, a bottle of wine and pain relief muscle patches. • when you do instagram lives with your group's official account, you can best believe that nijiro will be streaming, repeatedly tapping on the heart icon while sometimes spamming comments how pretty you look even though you're on your sweats and strands of hair are out of place. • being with you is like his getaway from his busy and fast paced life. • he lets himself be himself with you. he's not chishiya of alice in borderland or takahashi in hanalei bay or jintan in anohana, he's just nijiro, your nijiro. • each other's support system! • he's all smiles when your name is brought up in magazine interviews or when the hosts in the variety show program mention it. • a simp for you. case closed.

Most volcanoes and earthquakes occur at the intersection of plates of the earth’s crust. Aetna in Sicily and Vesuvius on the mainland are great examples of what happens when 3 plates meet.

Hawaii and Iceland are rare examples where there is a hole in the middle of a plate. Hawaii is near the centre of the Pacific plate and is formed from a single “hotspot “ that does not move.

However the plate is moving westward thus creating all these temporary islands

There is still the possibility of Maui having an eruption.

For the Brits and Pipers in the group, Castle Rock in Edinburgh is also a volcanic remnant 350 million years old. It is hard dolerite unlike the soft clays here in Hawaii. Much of the Highlands are of similar origin.

Now the Na Pali view.

From the top among the clouds

And now looking down (carefully!!) 5000 feet

And another view

Given the severe terrain, no roads or development was ever completed. The west side of the island is only accessible by foot and is a State Park.

There is a 22 mile shoreline hike and camping allowed by permit only. Wimps need not apply

She was so excited to start our adventure along the summit with poles in hand

But came home with a dirty bum. The clay is super slippery when it rains all the time. I made sure not to push any buttons during the retreat

This lighthouse on the north shore is located just before the road ends in Hanalei. Searched but could not find Puff.

And the village…… beautiful and a lovely bay but pricey at $40 million for a cottage on the beach. It rains a lot here and the sea is rough in the winter. Summer is peak season for boat tours and exploring. Summer and Xmas is actually peak season for prices on Kauai…….thats why a Scot visits in February

We explored an abandoned Club Med property from the 60s/70s in Hanalei and imagined the party times back then.

Rapid growth has now obstructed the bay view

And finally back in her element, the 69 year old gramma fights with the local keke (children) for the best spots on the boogie board beach a short walk from our villa. She has made many friends among the other little people hoping for a good ride.

Next edition ….. arboriculture, agriculture and the movies!

Welcome to the Ton! #1: Mechanics of Gameplay

Sul Sul, and welcome to the The Sims Royal Heirs! This post is the first in a series of introductions, as I try to explain the mechanics of the save I play in. I've included the gameplay rules I follow, mods I use & some more general information that will be helpful when navigating the story.

I can't wait to show you the world of my Sims, because I am dying to talk to people about them and learn about the others that exist.

To understand the stories that are currently unfolding, I thought i'd start with the mechanics of gameplay. I use the more commonly recognised titles & rules of succession, but some have been changed so they can fit within the The Sims 4 world & gameplay capabilities.

1. Countries

Each "world" of The Sims 4 represents a different country. So far, there are 7 countries, and therefore 7 Royal Families that the story follows. They are:

Willow Creek

Oasis Springs

Brindleton Bay

Mt. Komorebi

Windenburg (Encompassing Forgotten Hollows)

Henford-On-Bagley

Sulani

Every country I have can only have one reigning monarch. (Duh!) They are referred to as King or Queen, and their respective partners are known as Queen or Prince Consorts. Mt. Komorebi are the only exception: They are known as Emperor or Empress, and their partners known as Empress or Emperor Consort.

Pictured: The Royal Family of Willow Creek. Photographed by Countess Sayuri of Willow Creek.

2. States

Each neighbourhood within each The Sims 4 world is considered a "state" of that country.

Each state can have both a Barony/Baronship and a Duchy/Dukedom. Whilst Baronys are usually held by members outside of the direct Royal Family (RF), Duchys are usually held by members of the RF. This is because they're typically given as a gift from the Monarch upon marriage. Baronys and Dukedoms are inheritable.

In Game Example: In Windenburg, there is currently a Baroness of the Crumbling Isles. When Prince Hans of Windenburg marries, he is expected to recieve the Dukedom of the Crumbling Isles.

3. Ranking of Titles & Appointments.

Some appointments (therefore the titles that come with the appointments) rank higher then others. The below list is universal across all countries. This was decided on by the High Table long ago, to avoid confusion within communications and ranks.

From highest to lowest ranked titles:

Monarch (King/Queen/Emperor/Empress)

Queen/Prince Consort, Emperor/Empress Consort

Prince/Princess

Grand Duke/Duchess

Countess/Earl

Duke/Duchess

Baron/Baroness

Pictured: King Emilio of Oasis Springs.

4. Line of Succession Rules for Titles

All titles are inherited with a non gender specific primogeniture. Regardless of gender, the first born child is the heir apparent to their parents title. If the first born does not accept the title (or becames ineligable) it is then passed to the next sim in line. When does a sim become ineligable? In my gameplay, when a royal or noble sim marries another royal or noble sim, they have will have to choose which country they want to live in. If a sim accepts a title from another country, (aka marries and moves to their spouses Sims 4 world) they are not eligable for any titles they were in line to inherit. In Game Example: Lady Vera Garcia was the heir apparent to her father's Barony in Skyward Plains, Oasis Springs. When she married Prince Hanalei of Sulani, they decided to live in Sulani permanantly. Prince Hanalei & Lady Vera were gifted the Duchy of Lani St. Taz from the Sulani Royal Family. When she accepted, the now Duchess Vera became ineligable to inherit her father's Barony. This meant that her father's second born child, Lord Severo, became the first in line to inherit the Barony of Skyward Plains.

Pictured: Duchess Vera and Prince Hanalei of Sulani during their first dance.

5. Countess/Earl Titles

I think this title has the most changes when comparing it to others, so I thought it needed it's own explanation. This title is given to the Monarch's closest confidant and advisor. Generally it's also given to someone outside of the blood related RF, and commonly they are from another country.

The title of Countess/Earl is not inheritable, and is held by the person until death or retirement. The title is then free to be reallocated to another person at the Monarch's whim. To add to that, It can only be given to a sim that already has a Royal or Noble appointment in the country, or is an heir to a title. Having said that, someone can be given an appointment and then the Countess/Earl title at the same time. In Game Example: Queen Catherine of Willow Creek offered the title of Countess of Willow Creek to Lady Sayuri of Mt. Komorebi. Prior to this, the Countess did not hold any titles within Willow Creek. Queen Catherine appointed Lady Sayuri the Barony of Sage Estates, then the Countess of Willow Creek title.

Pictured: Lady Sayuri, Countess of Willow Creek.

6. Politics

Some generations ago, the 7 monarchs of the time came together in Henford-On-Bagley. They met to establish a way to cultivate peace & negotiate agreements between themselves. The monarchs stayed at the Grand Volpe Hotel for nearly a month, discussing the terms and conditions. The public called this The High Table, and the meeting of all 7 monarchs has been known by this name ever since. The meetings typically consist of things that effect the entire world & all countries as a whole. It has been known to cover everything from dire requests of aid from a country, to trade issues. Make no mistake, wars have been avoided & started during these meetings.

Pictured: The Grand Volpe Hotel.

7. Occult Sims

This sims save does have occult sims involved! Occult sims are members of the sim community, and as such, do have representation in politics also. They have an occult council that does bring their issues to the High Table as needed. It has one member per race (species?).

Interesting Fact: Sulani has a specific law that states only Merfolk are allowed to inherit or hold royal or noble titles. (This does not include partners, who are given customary titles.)

Pictured: King Maleko of Sulani. He is the only occult sim that is a Monarch. King Maleko also represents the Merfolk on the Occult Council.

8. Mods

I do use mods on my game play. To be completely honest, these are the reason that I started downloading CC. I literally couldn't picture playing sims without them. Currently, the main & non-negotiables I use are: - @llazyneiph's Royalty Mod - @mizoreyukii's Arranged Marriages - Weerbesu's Longer Parties & More Guests - @nekomimi-m0de's More Club Members Mod - @deaderpoolmc MCCC - Lumpinou's Rambunctious Religions

(Sidenote: I did use KiaraSims4Mods Royalty Mod at a point as well. I adore them both, but for very different reasons. I feel it fit here, because it is absolutely wonderful.)

This is not an exhaustive list by any means. Another post with a more detailed list of Mods & CC creators that I use is on it's way.

So this has been the basics of my gameplay. If you have any socials connected to Royal Sims Saves of your own, please let me know! I can't get enough of them to be completely honest.

In Welcome to the Ton! #2, I'm excited to give you a little more detail on each of the countries & share some history.
