I finally had to put my Colour Dynasty to rest. I
just could not get a decent save and I have spent
too much time on trying to recover it and too
much time playing and then not being able to save
it. Error 12 strikes again. Oh well, I think I will try
something totally different this time and make this
dynasty first person like I did my Ming dynasty
story. I think it makes for a more interesting read.
Chapter One: The Move
Hi, my name is Aquila Constellation, I know, I
know, before you make fun of my name, let me
enlighten you some. My parents were what were
called, "moon children" of their era, I suppose.
They loved everything to do with the stars, the
moon, the sky, you name it. They even had their
last name legally changed, to, you got it,
Constellation. My first name is the name of a star
or something, I am not sure, I didn't take on their
enthusiasm about that stuff. I do know, the kids in
school made fun of my name and I had to toughen
up to defend myself, but that is all behind me now,
which brings me to why I am here. My parents
died tragically a few months ago and left me a
small amount of money and a lock box. I just took
it and ran. I did not want to stay in that town for
another day, so I ended up in this small town,
called Riverview. I did manage to purchase some
property on Riverblossom Drive. I have always
wanted something of my own, so now I have it,
just what to do with it is another story. Here I am
in my new surroundings, allergies and all. Guess I
need to find a store around here to fix that.
I got my allergy stuff and found a library. I was
trying to read when a really large family came in
and I could not even concentrate. Where is that
librarian when you need em.
I gave up reading and decided to go ahead and
find a job, seeing how that buying that property
almost left me broke. I found a job in the business
profession and was really pleased, so now, lets
see if they have a listing for single men in this
town. Hmmm, Jon Lesson, Billy Caspian. Will
have to remember those names, but right now, I
think I will see if I can find someplace that serves my
favorite nectar and wind down some.
This place is real friendly and that bartender can
sure make the drinks and he is kinda cute. I
thought to myself, I had better just concentrate on
getting some sleep and feeling refreshed for my
new job. I was talking to the really cute bartender
and he said I could probably stay at the fire
station, hmm, firestation, firemen.......I wonder.
Oh good grief, I gotta get a grip here. I left the
cute bartender and found the fire station, no men
though, and ate some soup and found a comfy
bed to sleep in. I couldn't get my new job off my
brain and even dreamt about it and the cute
bartender.
The next time I post, I will fix the size of the pictures, not sure why the paragraphs are so short, I used the same thing as always, but will see what I can do.
