Generation French, Chapter One
Hello, and welcome to the new Around the World Legacy. Or, in French, Partout Dans Le Monde.
In this legacy, each generation will be named a word starting with their letter from a language starting with that letter; so a sim from generation F could be named Former, the French word for Train.
Last time on the Around the World Legacy, Edel was announced heir.
He celebrates by making some new friends.
Lots of new friends.
Lots of older, new, female friends.
Fortunately, they won't be too much older than him for much longer. It's his birthday!
He's a beautiful man!
Of course, our beautiful man wants to have ten girlfriends. So he calls up one of the girls from the park to talk.
Or, uh, more than talk. Err...
So they're dating now.
They woohoo. Or, rather, try for baby. It's my own personal rule that all woohoos must be try for baby if it's available. I heard a lullaby, so Ms. Eira Sophie is, like it or not, carrying the first child of generation F.
They broke up. She can't fit in the family if she's pregnant, there's no space, and I have my eye on a different young woman for a spouse anyway.
Edel tried another woman, but she's married, has a kid, and is family oriented, so she's not accepting his advances. He moves on.
Her name is Cesta Republika. She happily becomes Edel's girlfriend, but then she leaves before he can break up again.
Edel tried for baby with her, too, before they broke up. It's my plan for this generation that our heir spread his legacy heritage far and wide across this neighborhood before settling down.
So it's goodbye Cesta, hello... whoever's next!
This is a little weird. I mean, generation E is still made of (mostly) teens, but the heir is a YA, and generation F is on the way, but not in the household. I'm going to call this the start of Generation French anyway, but it's a rather odd and abrupt shift. Huh.
Maybe next time we'll start doing things properly again.

Generation Estonian, Chapter Six
Hello, and welcome to the new Around the World Legacy. Or, in Estonian, Maailmas.
In this legacy, each generation will be named a word starting with their letter from a language starting with that letter; so a sim from generation E could be named Esmaspäeviti, the Estonian word for Every Monday.
Last time on the Around the World Legacy, the oldest boy, Edel, was getting very close to his female neighbors, and the family was growing up.
Dårlig has been keeping up the traditional legacy garden, which her grandfather planted originally, but she rarely has time for it any more.
In keeping with the string-of-birthdays tradition, Ei is joining her siblings as a child.
A comment about Ei's hair. It really isn't one of the presets. This is how I tested. This is her with the dark brown preset.
Here she is with the light brown/dark blond.
And here's the red-brown hair.
And this is her natural color. None of the above.
*ahem* Anyway, it's time for Ettevaatust to become a teen. You know what that means!
Wolfe achieves his LTW! Hooray!
Now all five kids are teens, except for the adopted Ei. Which means that I can declare the heir(ess).
Who will it be? I think you can already guess...
Congratulations, Edel!
"Yeah, I knew it was going to be me."
Yeah, it's not like it was a secret. You're kind of the only child with a plot or any sort of personality at all. We haven't even seen Esimene for two chapters...
Oh, hey, there she is! She's ready to become a young adult and move out of the household. As her last act she shows off the view outside. What a gorgeous lot!
And yes, Esimene is a gorgeous young woman, too! She's a little "typical beauty" for me, but she really grew into that face. It sure was hard to find a hair that worked for her, though!
One last birthday before we end it. Ei is ready to join the ranks of the teens!
How cute!
See you next time!
Generation Estonian, Chapter Five
Hello, and welcome to the new Around the World Legacy. Or, in Estonian, Maailmas.
In this legacy, each generation will be named a word starting with their letter from a language starting with that letter; so a sim from generation E could be named Esmaspäeviti, the Estonian word for Every Monday.
Last time on the Around the World Legacy, the oldest boy, Edel, was trying to get in contact with his cousin, Elizabeth.
Before he gets there, it's time for his birthday!
He's still such a pretty boy. And yes, I did finally break down and start downloading things again, even though downloads are what borked my game last time. It's just too tempting!
After his birthday, Edel went to the Wolfe household and introduced himself to his aunt.
Once he got inside, he introduced himself to Elizabeth, and the two of them were fast friends, sharing many traits.
"Look, uh, Lizzie, can I call you Lizzie? I have a dream, and I'll need your help to achieve it."
"I want to date every available woman in the valley!"
Lizzie considered this for a moment. She knew many women who would be happy to be paired with a young legacy boy.
"What do you want me to do?"
Edel soon found himself with a new "friend" visiting each day. Many of them were older than him, and he knew that if he were the heir this plan would have to continue throughout his adult life.
He was very charming, and as his charisma level rose he made new friends easily.
He was even able to snag his first kiss with young woman his own age.
Meanwhile, the family marches on. It's a desperate rush to get all the kids to teen before Wolfe dies.
Little Ettevaatust makes quite the cute child! Dårlig and Wolfe's genes mixed pretty well!
While Edel's outside making more "friends," the twins prepare for another birthday.
Eile is rather pretty, even though her features seem a bit small for her face.
Eesti is rather pretty too, but her face was very hard to find a good hair for.
Wolfe, being in the politics career, has started needing to raise money for his campaign. So, it's time for a fund raising party! Everyone joins in and makes some new friends...
...but especially Edel. He's shmoozing with the best of them.
The party raised over $60,000 for the campaign!
So... yeah. A bad ending, but this is where I've gotta stop.
