Bloomwood 1: Fresh Beginnings

13 Comments

Valerie Bloomwood, a princess from far, far away.

Even though she had endless wealth and the King and Queen loved her dearly; but it’s because of that love, she was under the watch of many guards ever since birth. She lived in a beautiful castle surrounded by high walls, and everyday she would wonder around the castle looking at the things she knows all too well of. She knew she had enough, but because of the King and Queen’s restrictions, Val had no choice but to endure until her last breath.

…Of course, Fate had a different idea.

One day, before Val went to bed, she found a letter hidden under her pillow. She didn’t know who sent it or how, as her room’s always under constant surveillance. She hid the letter in her blouse and headed to the restroom. Making sure that no one was around, she opened the letter and started reading. Her heart beat got faster and faster, it was a letter from her late Grandmother.

Shocked and emotional, her late Grandmother has given her a chance to start life anew. This was a letter written on a magical parchment, by signing her name after reading the letter, the magic placed within it will be released and Val’s life will henceforth be different. Everyone from within the Kingdom, including the King and Queen, will forget she ever existed. But Val didn’t mind, she was eager for a new beginning.

Hastily, Val signed the parchment. In a flash of bright light, she felt herself standing on solid earth. She opened her eyes, and there she was, standing in the middle of a vast land, buildings around her, trees, grass, roads; at that moment she knew she had been freed. Looking around her, she strangely knew what everything were; she knew what they do, what they can be used for.. but most importantly, she knew what her purpose there was: to start her own life the way she wanted to be.


Dressed in modern clothes and looking all chic, Val was ready for whatever the world throws at her. Her biggest wish is to start her own family, have kids, grand kids, and produce generations down the road. Her lifetime goal is to become a Star News Anchor because she wants to tell the whole world about her town and daily happenings, she loves this town and she’s eager to be apart of it. But first things first, she needs to buy some necessities for her home.

It was difficult choosing what she needed but she did manage to purchase the things she needed the most with the little amount of money she had. Taking a look at her new living arrangements, she smiled happily. Of course life would never be fulfilled if she doesn’t know anyone. And so, Val called a taxi and headed toward the city center…

      I am glad you like it! It’s my first time writing a legacy story so there’s still a lot to improve on. Thank you!

    • AverieThursday, July 2, 2009 at 10:33 AM

      Thank you! I try my best. ^^

    This is adorable! I love you writing style, and your little background “story”. Definitely a great start – and with a Japanese guy! Whoo, gotta love asians :D D Keep up the good work, can’t wait to read more!

    Btw, love the blog layout. I assume you made it yourself? You’re very talented ;)

    • AverieThursday, July 2, 2009 at 10:38 AM

      Yay thank you for the compliments! Who doesn’t love mixed babies? Haha that background story took me awhile to come up with, at first I was just gonna make Val an alien instead but decided not to. ;-)

      I am so happy that you like it!

        Yup, I first started my family with a black woman and a red head man. The kids had dark skin and bright orange hair DD: I fixed that pretty quick, but it’s still fun to see what happens.

        Hmm, I’ve never made any sims with skin colors that were out of the ordinary. Gotta try that some time!

    Yay, Leighton!
    I love where this legacy is going. :grin: Very interesting so far.

    • AverieThursday, July 2, 2009 at 10:36 PM

      Leighton > all!

      Glad you like it ^^. I am working on chapter 2 now.

    It was really interesting to read. XD I myself don’t play Sims, though I do enjoy looking at the blogs of other people who do.

    My only suggestion is to keep your tenses consistent. At times you kept switching from present to past. Even though it didn’t really muddle the context, it was at times a bit confusing.

    • AverieSaturday, July 18, 2009 at 9:42 AM

      Thanks for the read! And great suggestion, I’ll definitely try to do better next time. :)

    I’d never even header of a legacy story before now.
    I think I’ll have to research more into them ^^
    I really enjoyed your though, can’t wait for part 2 :D

    Orange hair! Wow that’s pretty cool. I am playing around with my Sims’ hair now too just to see what the kids will end up with. I love Sims with unique features.
