The family is all back together in Sunset Valley. Forest accomplished the Prolific Writer skill challenge by completing 20 books while in Al Simhara. He wrote several short non-fiction novels: I Miss My Daddy; Yes, I Know My Daddy; Good Times With Dad; Dreamweaver Star Castle: Fact or Myth; Dreamweaving Through Time; Indigo's Insanity; and Chartreuse Was A Rock Star. He will now focus on the Speed Writer Challenge which requires him to have $30,000 in royalties (he's halfway there) and his Writing Career (he's at level 4).
The rest of the family is mostly just passing time doing what they want. I generally set each one to a task for the day to keep them busy and out of the way. This game file runs slowly and it's challenging just to get them all rounded up, fed, bathed, and to bed. I'm not leaving them unattended because there's too much riding on this.
Forest is 11 days from aging up to Adult. He has purchased his 3 Lifetime Rewards: Acclaimed Author, Change of Taste, and Speedy Cleaner. And his Charisma is up to level 6.
