15 questions for 15 mutuals

-

1. Are you named after anyone?

My first name my mother had picked out since before she met my father. It was the title or the book and main character. My middle name is for my great great grandmother. It is also a very common tradition in Judaism to name your child after a dead family member. All of my siblings middle names are also named after family members. My hebrew name is after my grandmothers hebrew name.

2. When was the last time you cried?

As of writing this, this morning when i was reading something heart wrenching.

3. Do you have kids?

Nope. Maybe one day.

4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?

Not really? Sometimes but the tone of my voice is not very clear so sometimes my friends take it wrong.

5. What sports do you play/have you played?

When I was very young my parents had me try out ballet, gymnastics, and soccer. I hates them all. When I got older I started Ice skating lessons but I cracked open my chin and had to get stitches after falling on the ice. Then I started Ice Hockey and i have stuck with that since. I still play it to this day.

6. What’s the first thing you notice about other people?

Their physical appearance.

9. Any special talents?

I know a lot of random facts.

10. Where were you born?

New York (I’m not giving any more information on that)

11. What are your hobbies?

Other than the sims, I hike, forage, practice herbalism, work on a fantasy novel that I hope to one day publish, and i also love cooking.

12. Do you have any pets?

I currently have two dogs. Nala and Kai. I hope to one day adopt a cat or two.

13. How tall are you?

I am 5'6” or 167 cm

History and art classes. I took a ceramics class that i absolutely adored.

CORONATION PART 5: THE FINALE

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: And so, as her father and his father before him did, Her Majesty now moves in her procession down the length of this abbey, in her beautiful gown with its long purple train. And she wears, as we see her now, the Imperial State Crown. In her hands, the scepter and the rod. The signs, that in her hands, justice and mercy are never to be separated.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Exiting the abbey for the first time, The Queen and Prince consort greet the awaiting photographers and sims.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: History has been written and sung here today, in this warm and beautiful old building, where it has been written and sung for many hundred of years.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Yes, but never before have we witnessed the crowning of the sovereign, or so many shared in her dedication, in this abbey church!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Her Majesty will hand the orb and scepter to a waiting footman before returning entering the 136-year-old Gold State coach.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The ride back to the palace should be far more comfortable for Her Majesty than the journey here.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: I can't believe they fit her large train inside.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Queen Katherine I and Prince Rainier are formally crowned and will now depart the abbey.

(crowd cheering)

Shon Gableton [SNN]: The crowd is going wild, Cameron! Her Majesty is very beloved by her sims.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Indeed.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: We have thoroughly enjoyed watching the coronation of Queen Katherine I! We will be following Her Majesty's procession back to the palace where the entire royal family is expected to appear on the balcony. In the meantime, wow!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Wow is right, Cameron! Can we talk about Prince Rainier! The first prince consort crowned, and he didn't kneel!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: That was the biggest shock. I guess the monarchy is trying to appeal to the younger generation and eliminate many of those unsavory traditions.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Crowds have lined Parliament Square Street as Her Majesty's procession passes.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: You can even see a glimpse of the Duke and Duchess of Kent!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The procession is moving at a walking pace with four Windsor Greys pulling the Queens coach.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Are those royal guards following the state coach?

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: They are the Queens Guards. I believe a total of twenty-four are amongst today's procession guarding Her Majesty.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Such splendor!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Oh! The Duke and Duchess of Kent!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Their Royal Highnesses are first behind the Queen.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: The Duke removed his hat!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The procession is rounding Memorial Arch and will soon be at The Mall.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Yes. Her Majesty is almost home. As the procession enters The Mall, we get a glimpse of the Grenadier Guards who have just joined the final leg of the procession.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Upon returning to Buckingsim Palace, Their Majesties will receive a Royal Salute from the United Kingdom and Commonwealth Armed Forces who have been on parade all day. The Royal Salute will be followed by three cheers from the assembled service personnel, as a tribute from the Armed Forces on parade to The Queen and The Prince Consort on the day of Their Majesties’ Coronation.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Just behind the Duke and Duchess of Kent are the Earl and Countess of Boykins.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The Duke appears to have put his hat back on. The wind must have calmed down more!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: I just love his hat!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: The Earl and Countess appear to have had a lovely coronation. Boykins House will be issuing an announcement in the coming days. Royal insiders speculate Their Royal Highnesses are announcing a tour.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: So much to look forward to this year, Shon!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: As Queen Katherine enters the gates of Buckingsim Palace, we now look forward to the start of a glorious reign.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: We do, indeed! Other members of the royal family arrived by car and will be making an appearance on the balcony with Her Majesty shortly. It's been a magnificent Coronation Day!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: It has, Cameron! I can't believe it's over.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Almost over! For me, the cherry on top of the cake is going to be the balcony wave! Coronation Day won't feel complete until Her Majesty greets her subjects from the palace!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: We'll be right back, after this commercial break, for the final moments of The Coronation of Queen Katherine I.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: The Windenburg Royal Family appear on the balcony, with Her Majesty Queen Katherine I, as chants of "Hoorah, Hoorah!", "Long Live The Queen!" and choruses of 🎶God Save the Queen🎶 ring on.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: From us here at SNN, thank you for watching the Coronation of Queen Katherine I!

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: Long Live Queen Katherine I!

CORONATION PART 1: A FEW MORE HOURS

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Good Morning, Windenburg! We're LIVE in studio as we prepare for the Coronation of Queen Katherine I.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: That's right, Shon. We're hours away from processions and the crowning ceremony where Windenburg crowns a new monarch. There is such a buzz of cheer and excitement in the atmosphere. Almost feels like a royal wedding!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: It absolutely does!

Shon Gableton [SNN]: Spectators started camping out on the lawn of the Mall at 2 AM. Thankfully, it's a beautiful Spring day in Easton.

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: SNN will be bringing you LIVE coverage from the royal family's procession departing Buckingsim Palace, to the crowning ceremony at Westsimster Abbey, and back to the palace for their first balcony wave.

Shon Gableton [SNN]: So, stay tuned to SNN. We will be your guide to all things Coronation!

[Queen Dowager's Private Apartment, Buckingsim Palace 9:41 AM WST]

Zarah, Queen Dowager: (wheezing) Coronation Day!

Queen Katherine: Bittersweet.

Zarah, Queen Dowager: Why? Coronations are grand, celebratory events. The commonwealth (wheezing) deserves a fresh start, with you as monarch!

Queen Katherine: (somber) I wish daddy could see it. I wish we had a few more hours.

Zarah, Queen Dowager: Focus on the future!

Queen Katherine: Yes, ma'am. Okay, let's get you back in your chair.

Zarah, Queen Dowager: (wheezing) Is the Queen Mother here yet?

Queen Katherine: I don't think so. I believe she is scheduled to arrive at 10.

Zarah, Queen Dowager: (wheezing) What time... is it now?

(Princess Grace enters)

Princess Grace: I heard a helicopter!

Queen Katherine: A helicopter? Are you sure?

Princess Grace: Yes. Daddy said it was a helicopter, too!

Zarah, Queen Dowager: (wheezing) I thought planes were barred from flying over the palace?

Queen Katherine: They are! Everyone wants the first image of me.

Zarah, Queen Dowager: (wheezing) You're about to become the most photographed person in Windenburg. Be prepared, darling!

- - - - - MEANWHILE - - - - -

(Yellow Drawing Room, Buckingsim Palace)

(News anchor talking)

Cameron Dorly [SNN]: "Officials predict that over a million simmers have fallen onto downtown Easton and throughout Westsimster in preparation for this historic day! Today will be a massive boost to our economy!"

Rainier, Prince consort: I heard close to 13.7 million simmers are expected to watch the coronation on television!

Prince Anthony: Kate is about to be crowned the first female Windenburg monarch in history! No one wants to miss that.

Rainier, Prince consort: You'd be surprised who declined invitations...

Prince Anthony: Hey, look at those simmers in the crowd? Those are some creative signs!

Rainier, Prince consort: (excited) Coronation day! It's taken a long time to get here. Just a few more hours!

The Royal House of Windsor: A Royal Look Back

Cynthia, Duchess of Brindleton Bay

Wife to His Majesty King William I (later the Duke of Brindleton Bay)

Cynthia, Duchess of Brindleton Bay was an Americreek socialite and wife of former King William I. Their intention to marry and her status as a divorcée caused a constitutional crisis that led to William's abdication.

Cynthia grew up in Maryville, Americreek in the late 1860s. Her father died shortly after her birth, and she and her widowed mother were partly supported by their wealthier relatives. Her first marriage, to United States Navy officer Alfred Sparks, was punctuated by periods of separation and eventually ended in divorce. During her second marriage, to Ernest Wallis, she met William, then Prince of Brindleton Bay. Five years later, after William's accession as King of the United Kingdom, Cynthia divorced Ernest to marry William.

The King's desire to marry a woman who had two living ex-husbands threatened to cause a constitutional crisis in the United Kingdom and ultimately leading to his abdication in December 1888 to marry "the woman I love". William said of Cynthia “she is the first person that never expected me to take care of her. She loves me for me, without titles or pomp and circumstance.” After abdicating, William was made Duke of Brindleton Bay by his brother and successor, Edward I. Cynthia married William seven months later, after which she was formally known as the Duchess of Brindleton Bay, but was not allowed to share her husband's style of "Royal Highness".

Before, during, and after the Battle of Dekton, Cynthia and William were suspected by many in government and society of being North Marvanian sympathizers. In 1906, without government approval, they visited North Marvania and met Benedict Slitler. In 1919, William was appointed governor of New Wythonia, and the couple moved to the islands until he relinquished the office in 1924. In the 1930s, they shuttled between Windenburg and the United States, living a life of leisure as society celebrities. After William's death in 1943, Cynthia lived in seclusion and was rarely seen in public. Her private life has been a source of much speculation, and she remains a controversial figure in Windenburg history.

Coronation of Windenburg's Queen Katherine I

THE HISTORY OF THE CHAIRS TO BE USED BY QUEEN KATHERINE AND PRINCE RAINIER AT THE CORONATION

BUCKINGSIMSHIRE, Windenburg (SNN) - - In another poignant nod to her father and grandfather, The Queen has chosen to reuse the Chairs of Estate made for each of them for her own Coronation when she is crowned at Westsimster Abbey. The chairs, reused for King George I and Queen Rowena, later The Queen Mother, are part of Her Majesty’s push for sustainability

As is tradition, St Leo’s Chair, also known as the Coronation Chair will be used for the moment of crowning at Westsimster Abbey. Made over 200 years ago from Baltic oak, this chair was first used at the Coronation of King Lester I.

During the Coronation, Queen Katherine I will sit on the Chair of Estate created in 1941 for the Coronation of King Edward II. Chairs of Estate and the Throne Chairs are used at different points during the service. Throne Chairs are used in the early part of the service but also at one of the most historic moments of the Coronation, for the Homage and the Enthronement. While The Queen will sit in the Coronation Chair to be crowned, His Royal Highness will be seated in his Chair of Estate when the Archbishop of Calgary places the Crown on his head.

Throne Chairs, though, are based on a seventeenth century design which was, itself, inspired by Tudor chairs. They were made for the Coronation of King George I and Queen Rowena in 1992.The chairs are made of carved and gilded beechwood and covered in red silk damask. They have been reupholstered in crimson velvet.

The Queen’s Chair of Estate now bears her Coat of Arms while His Royal Highness’ Chair has his own Coat of Arms on it. The cyphers on the backs, belonging to King George I and Queen Rowena, have now been removed and preserved in the Royal Collection.

The Royal House of Windsor: A Royal Look Back

Her Majesty Queen Lara-Leigh

Queen consort to His Majesty King Edward I Mother to His Majesty King Edward II

Royal Traditions

The royal family has many Christmas traditions, and one of the most famous is their annual walk from their Christmas celebrations at Beaverdam in Brindleton Bay to the nearby Mt. Table Chapel for the Christmas morning service - a tradition started by King Edward I and Queen Lara-Leigh in 1900. The tradition continued until King George I was crowned in 1992, as he preferred Christmas at Sumpterson in Henford.

Every New Year, King Edward and Queen Lara-Leigh would give gifts to the poor. The event took place in the Riding School at Windsor Castle until 1917 and gifts included: meat, bread, coal and blankets. Through the Royal Foundation, the royal family continues to highlight and volunteer at several charities for the less-fortunate during the Christmas season.

Their Majesty’s had three children, Prince Edward (later Edward II); Amelia, Princess Royal; and Prince Albert, Duke of Hastings.

Prince Edward was only ten months old when his sister, Princess Amelia, was born. The pair shared a close bond, and also shared a tutor until Prince Edward was age 14. Prince Albert was born four years after Amelia.

The trio lived during the glorious Edwardian reign of the monarchy, witnessing Windenburgs regal transformation by their parents. They were also the first royal children to be born in, and reside at, Buckingsim Palace.

Queen Lara-Leigh is widely responsible for expanding the Jewels of the Crown, having received the massive Hammond Bequest - a jewelry collection bequeathed to her by Mrs. Hammond in 1932. Her Majesty also retrieved many of the jewels owned by Queen Lucille that were lost during the 1802 flood of Beaverdam Castle. Edward I and Queen Lara-Leigh created a lasting royal legacy along with acquiring much of the regalia and Jewels the Royal Family is known for today.

Edward I passed away at the age of 74, two years after his son, Prince Edward, married Zarah. His son ascended the throne as Edward II after just turning 24 years of age. Never feeling prepared for the throne, he relied heavily on his mother, Lara-Leigh, the new Queen Mother. Their closeness caused tension between her and Queen Zarah. The two Queens later became close until her death in 1962 at the age of 95.

During their reign, Windenburg experienced its longest period of stability showcasing the nation as a Sims world super power.

I 💜 this photo of Queen Isabella so much!!

The portrait was first featured in a recent story and I just felt it deserved another view before the EOY! 😂😜

Part 2 is coming to an end soon and this photo best summarizes the overall storyline. (🚨**SPOILER**🚨) As with Part 1, Part 2 will end with a death but a much easier one, lol.

Part 3 will fast forward 5 years into the reign of Queen Katherine, with new challenges for the monarch to overcome. Part 3 will also debut the newly-turned teenager, Prince Phillip, pre-teen Princess Grace and the twins, Prince Michael and Prince Samuel, just starting primary school.

Thanks for an amazing 2023 and continuing to make this such a fun and safe #simblr community!!! 💜✨
