a simblr for the evil-hearted

Both Mother and Child are healthy!

Alys is finding this pregnancy much easier, and hopes this is a good sign for the future baby.

Meanwhile, Lady and Nosewise begin to show their age. If the Cowcrosses want to continue making some extra cash with puppies, they'll need to find another dog to mate with Argent.

Both are happy to know that their prayers were answered!

That night, they return from the festival and hope that Brother Spring can help them expand their family once more.

(This was their ROS event for the season!)

The loss of Espen has hit both of the Cowcrosses hard, so they go on an outing to the Spring Faire hoping the Saint Brother Spring can help them move on and grow their family again.

Unfortunately tragedy strikes this season as Espen dies in his sleep not long after he starts teething.

Argent and his brother grow up into handsome little dogs.

dear penthouse, i never thought it would happen to me...

Both parents make sure baby Espen is cared for and loved.

Baby Espen Cowcross, a baby boy is birthed outside, but doesn't seem any worse for wear for it.

As Alys was already aggressively pregnant at the start of the round, midwife Phoebe was summoned to help around the house and get ready for the upcoming birth. Alys is very excited to see her.

Emery makes money by providing firewood, branches, and the bounties of the forest to the people of Roche Rock, as well as some wood-working goods. Additionally, his dogs Lady and Nosewise also have had two litters which help provide some additional income. The yeoman family the Fahlens, who manage the Hedge Tavern, and the Asche's both have pups from Lady and Nosewise. However, pictured is little Argent who Alys has taken a liking to.

Lady and Nosewise (ignore the fact Nosewise is an Elder dog, he spent all his adulthood dog life either trying for puppies with Lady or licking his own pee puddles)

However, as their difference in station is far too wide to gap, he does truly love Alys, and Annabelle is also recently happily married, he is trying to remain loyal to his growing family.

Emery was raised by his sister, never having known his parents. After he came of age, she was able to find a husband herself and start the family she always wanted- unfortunately for him, her husband was from the next village over. Managing their woodcutting business himself was dificult, but made easier with his two small dogs Lady, a Spaniel, and Nosewise, a beagle. However, when he met Alys, a wandering minstrel, he knew it was time to settle down and start his own family. Alys had always dreamed of having a family of her own. She was orphaned at a young age and taken in by a group of wanderers and entertainers, but she never had much of a passion for it, mostly cleaning and cooking for them rather than performing herself. She is happy to find a place her in Roche Rock and a true love connection in Emery. She is doubly excited now that they are expecting their first child.
