Previously: Nicklaus is dead, and Virginia has to deal with four children alone. Dalmazia, the older, is a good help, especially with one of the two toddles, Georgia, whom Virginia hates because she’s Nicklaus’ and Justine Lynn’s daughter. Eufrate mostly looks for small animals in the neighbourhood, while Florence grows up to a child. Meanwhile, Virginia spends time with her new grandchildren, Barcelona’s and Croazia’s boys, and she gives birth to hers and Ethan’s, Croazia’s husband, daughter: Haiti.

It’s Georgia’s birthday. Virginia knows that she can’t avoid buying a cake for her, because she has organized a party for Eufrate on the same day.

While Georgia grows to be a lovely girl,

and Eufrate expresses the desire of finally being a normal boy with a lot of friends and not only animals.

Virginia is not sure how many friends he can gather if he scares people with that rebellious look.

But Virginia doesn’t know that really he is only a big sweet boy.

He even visits his only brother Amerigo, and he adopts from him a little kitten that could help him with his dream of catching twenty little animals.

This is Everest. She could be K2’s daughter…

Some days later, it’s Dalmazia’s birthday.

She becomes a young adult without having fulfilled her lifetime wish, and, after finding a job in the police, she leaves immediately to be more free in her search for money and fame.

Dalmazia Mondiale: Easily Impressed, Good, Brave, Workaholic, Dramatic
LTW: Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous – Unfulfilled
Rolled Traits
LTH: ~ 11.000

Despite Dalmazia’s sudden departure for life, Virginia doesn’t allow Georgia to sleep in her old bed. She buys her a new one – a nice one, that is – but she puts it in the corridor on the second floor. Poor Georgia doesn’t even have a room… but she can’t really complain – Virginia thinks – because even Florence still sleeps with her mother.

After seeing little Everest, Georgia decides that she wants to be an Arc Builder, like Florence, but she spends most of her time cooking muffins.

And then she sells them at the park. Well, she tries to sell them.

There, she meets Amerigo and Letitia. It becomes clear, then, that Letitia won’t give Virginia any grandchildren…

Justine won’t have any more children, too.

Georgia also meets her “not-really-cousin” Zane, Barcelona’s daughter, and they become friends.

While, at home, it’s Haiti’s birthday.

It seems like she’s the first daughter Virginia had that isn’t her nearly exact clone since Croazia, who, anyway, would look very much like her, if it wasn’t for the red hair. Haiti has Virginia’s blond hair, and beautiful purple eyes.

AN: back after months of too small RAM memory! I need some time to reconnect with the family… I didn’t even remember the existence of Dalmazia!

Haiti truly is the first daughter remarkably different from Virginia… but she’s blond, too!!! Georgia was such a pleasant diversion from all that pale skin and blond hair, and now it’s back again! I can only hope Baby I won’t be so fair!
