Part II - Chapter 22
I've been putting together a chapter of grief, with a powerpoint on YouTube which of course you can find it in the last chapter, 02-22, of the Grey Witches, with pics' retracing Taiga and Derek's "love" story. Taiga is grieving, riding a dangerous roller coaster of pain, guilt and anger bringing her close to the verge of depression...
Part II - Chapter 23
Taïga slowly emerges from her grief, realizing she has to continue living. But there are lose ends… Like Loki…
And she really shouldn't fool around with magic - yet...

What have the Grey's been up to lately? Well, they're in a wedding frenzy, and Granny is doing her best trying to get everything ready for the big day. But sometimes it’s a tad too much…
Writing invitations and planning the seating? Check.
Choosing the wedding cake? Check.
Fitting the wedding dress? Check...
And meanwhile Rowan has talked Taiga into something. Or is it the other way around?
The most important is to not forget there's a love story behind all this...

Happy simming!
And here's an invitation to all of you to assist the ceremony next week!
@ohhmystarrs You're right, TS3 is far from dead! I haven't even thought about buying TS4 yet! And I haven't explored half the possibilities that comes with all the EP's and stuff packs... Just ITF to go, but it isn't particularly attractive to me...
Granny is a beauty, I'm thinking of doing a flashback on her youth when she met Shasta's father, or maybe her love story with Magnus...
Today is Missy’s big day and the whole household is under pressure getting ready for the ceremony and the following reception. They’ve worked out the dress problem, and the cake problem. Nothing can surely go wrong now? Surprise!
The future groom has a problem with his suit – in fact he hasn’t got one. The best man is hungover. Or drunk. Or both. It’s past 10 a.m. and the party tent hasn’t been delivered yet. Nor has the tables and chairs. Or the decorations for that matter. Leonardo has showed up with Frost, who immediately set out to be a nuisance – or something worse… And on top of it all – it’s raining!
They’ve made it through the morning, and the moment has come - Missy is finally walking happily down the aisle… But wait!?! Oh no…
This chapter is all about relationships. About friendship, about love and treason. And mostly about what happens when there’s no love anymore. If there existed a handbook in “How to Break up” it would be a bestseller. Because it’s hard to go on after a break up. But it’s also extremely difficult to be the one who wants to end the relationship…
I have made a little spin-off to The Grey Witches, retracing the history of their ancestor. I've finished the Introduction, and the first chapter will be up tomorrow!
The Beginningof the Grey Witches takes place somewhere during the Middle Ages, sometime after the Black Death has ravaged Europe, in a country that since has ceased to exist…
Our heroine, Valinor, is an orphan brought up by an old crone with healing and magic abilities. She has to take care of herself early, as her mentor dies when Valinor is only 10. Getting by alone, first as child then as a young woman, was extremely difficult back then, when science and healing was magic and magic was heresy…
Women were brought up under their father’s responsibility, then were handed over to their husbands from age 12. They were totally dominated by the male members of their family, who had the right to beat any disobedient girl into submission and defiance was seen as a crime against the all mighty Church who kept the population in check. Marriages were arranged, money and land were more important than love. A woman was expected to instantly obey. But why ask questions? This was the way it always had been…
This is where we find Valinor at age 16. A young woman, extremely beautiful, but also respected and feared for her trade as midwife and physician. She uses her knowledge to heal, but can’t keep away from doing magic – selling her potions to the villagers and soldiers at the castle…
Sire Bran Winterwolf is the Captain of the King’s guard. The model of medieval chivalry, a brilliant horseman and skilled strategist, he excells at all kinds of jousts and tournaments. The ladies swoon over him since he was only a squire, and now he’s a full-fledged Knight, he’s supposed to wed a noble woman. But who?
Content Warning: This Chapter contains scenes bringing forward outdated religious opinions, sexual innuendo and general craziness that might offend.
The Grey Witches are back with a medieval series, retracing the adventures of their ancestor Valinor, the Sorceress. The middle-ages were times of war, plague and courtly love but also of widespread misogyny… We will follow the struggle of a young woman against the church and society, towards everlasting love.
I hope you'll enjoy it. I've tried to keep it low-key, there aren't so many supernatural beings apart from the Grey Witches and Derek who's a werewolf. Sometimes you'll come across a vampire or other werewolves and witches but as I said, I've tried to write a story that's a little like real life...
This chapter is all about secrets. Big or small, everyone's got something they aren't supposed to talk about - Taïga, Granny, Missy, Juan... But the greatest secrets are kept by the smallest in size, Sprinkler O'Lyin, the Leprechaun...
One of Taïga's secrets is the music...
Some secrets interfere with her schoolwork...
She finally gets to ride one of the Kempinsky Thoroughbreds. But that’s hardly a secret!
Granny's secret is her growing feelings for Arthur, but she also doesn’t talk about her intention of contacting Magnus Darkling for help if needed...
Arthur's secret? He won something really nice at the Fairview Heights Soccer lottery!
Even Missy has hidden something from her husband...
Will Juan be able to keep this a secret from his friends?
A baby! Awesome! But how will they go to Lucky Palms with a little one to look after? Also, I keep thinking that maybe there were some unexpected consequences from Missy drinking that cow plant milk....
It's so sweet that Granny and Arthur are falling in love, but how will he take her being a witch? She doesn't seem like she would keep him in the dark if they get serious.
@Peach77 I guess poor Taïga will have to babysit, if Missy' s first option backfires... You're on to something concerning the cowplant but I can't spoil the next chapters... Granny will risk to have her powers stripped away if the council finds out she has confided in a mere mortal. Will she risk it? We'll see...
It’s all about Granny, Arthur and the Darer’s on their weekend in Lucky Palms. As usual things don’t go smoothly when Missy is around; They have a problem with their luggage and problems with the staff at their hotel…
Problems with the pool…
But thanks to Mr. Lestat, they spend a magic afternoon!

I really love the skin details on Granny. They look so real, lol. And I am glad to see some sims 3 stuff. It's not dead! There is far too much to do!

@mastressalita
After a wedding ceremony there’s a reception, and Missy’s wedding is no exception. Food, drink and music for everyone!
An accident? Or should we call it murder? Manslaughter? Taïga escapes from the Grim Reaper, but what about Granny?

Loki’s missing and his car is found wrecked at the base of Golden Deer Ridge…

The day starts off quite bad; after nightmares and a vision in the mirror, she misses the bus and finally has to bike to school…
Missy gets her wand back, but immediately messes things up… Bippidy-boppedy-boo!
But the day ends all right, with Taïga getting a part-time job at the Kempinsky's Equestrian Center…
(Content Warning - Bad language and nude pics...)
Bayou Oaks Mansion
The new greenhouse is built, and Granny gets Sprinkler O’Lyin to help her move the cowplant. But what are those “special” seeds?
Arthur Moon and Lucky Perkins get in a fight over Granny…
… while Granny and Missy are canning figs. Well, Missy is eating and Granny is canning.

And gets a surprising phone call from Monte Vista.
AP calculus...

The Grey Witches Part II - Chapter 32 White, Grey or Black?
As the night of the blood moon approaches, Taïga is solicited by different sources of magic.
Missy tries to teach her what she knows, and that can never be good…
… while Granny decides on advancing the beginning of her initiation to keep her safe from the risk of fire.
What difference could a couple of days make anyway? It’s not as if her grandchild never has touched magic before, is it?
