1300 - Day 1
Meet the Norwood family..... they live on a small farm in the outskirts of Windenburg, a fief of Lord Gilbert de Clare.
William inherited this farm from his father when he passed while William was just a child. He never had any siblings but found a responsible wife in Eva. She's happy when she is surrounded by people while her husband is the exact opposite.
Together they had 3 children who help out around the farm.
The youngest is Evan who is responsible for the chickens, even though his big brother keeps a watchful eye out... He knows that his little brother likes to cause mischief.
Evan turned 7 not too long ago and has developed some other interests.... He takes to archery quite well
Tara is the middle child of the family. She helps out with planting and harvesting in the garden but most of her time she spends out in the forest... The family doesn't really understands what draws her to it but Eva is always thankful for the supplies she brings home.
Finnian, the eldest son, mostly manages the crops and goes out hunting with his father when the pantry need filling. He has a really good relationship with his sister.
The year 1300 catches them a little bit off guard. They used up most of their supplies in the last winter and William goes out to hunt almost every day. Eva is worried that they will run short in a few days.
"Finnian, do you think you could run an errand down at the Bishops? I asked him to set aside some fish for storing and I just want to know if he has had any luck catching some.... I would do it myself but I'm feeling faint today."
"Of course mother, you should rest today. Don't worry, I wanted to talk to Emma anyway. We wanted to go to curch together before Easter."
When Finnian leaves, she lies done immeadiatly. She isn't feeling good lately, there were even a few fainting spells... If it doesn't get better she knows she need to go to the village doctor.
Finnian meanwhile has walked over to their neighbours, the Bishops. He's anxious about his mothers illness but happy that he can see his childhood friend, Emma.
"Sorry, but my father is out fishing today, he didn't catch much the last few days. I'll be happy to come by and bring some if he catches any."
"My mother is really worried, I think I'll just go there and ask him myself... or... We could go down to the river and try to catch some?"
"Sure, we can try... but don't be disappointed when we don't catch anything."
They don't catch anything but at least they had time to talk. For some time now Finnian is drawn to Emma's company but he can't quite put together why.... They decide to go to church together next week to pray for a good harvest at least.
But Finnian didn't need to worry. When Emmas father returns shortly after they get home, he shares a bountiful catch with him.
Emma watches him leave with a smile on her face. She's happy that he feels a bit calmer now.
When he comes home that evening, he's happy to see that his mother recovered somewhat she sits together with the neighbours who brought over some food so share.
"Look, Finnian, the neighbours brought some pheasants they hunted today, I can prepare it for tomorrow."
"That's nice, mother. The Bishops also had some fish to share. Are you feeling better?"
"Yes, love, thank you. Let me take those to the pantry."
The neighbours look at their exchange fondly.
"Well, Finnian, you've grown up to be quite the responsible young man. Eva, would you like me to bring over my daughter sometime? He should start to think about marriage soon."
Finnian smiles awkwardly and looks away. Emma's smiling face shows up in his mind.

Ultimate Decades - 1300s - 1300
1300
In 1300, Adam and Evelyn got married
With a first interaction like this, babies should be upon us soon
Evelyn's older sister, Mary, popped over for a visit
"Mary!"
"Sister!"
"How is farm life?"
"I'm still getting used to it. It's so different from the city"
Meanwhile, Adam's father, Joseph, went fishing to leave the women to it
Evelyn's cooking skills weren't quite up there yet (and Adam was nearly mauled by a bear so no protein...) so it was gruel until further notice
It's baby making time~
Evelyn spends the majority of her morning doing laundry
"Somehow I didn't think this is what the farm life would be like..."
"....."
"Me too. Mr. Rooster, me too"
(the rooster has a name but I did not write it down. lol)
Daisy the cow is currently Adam's favourite child
Evelyn found herself being done with her chores early in the day so she took up cross-stitch
"Ouch"
The young couple were being cute when Joseph came in to yell at them
God forbid anyone hugs around here
Another day, another baby attempt
"The gruel tastes different today, Evelyn. Trying something new?"
"Well..."
Evelyn's till working on this cooking thing
Evelyn was doing her chores while being judged by the rooster
"Good job, girl!"
The rooster judges silently
It was then that Evelyn's baby dreams were put on hold
The monthly 'illness' had arrived.
Time to get the rags
Since Evelyn wasn't allowed near the garden currently, she spent more time on her cross-stitching
Mary came to visit
"Sister, I heard you're banished from the garden"
"Unfortunately, yes. I was hoping to be with child but the Watcher felt like it wasn't the time I suppose"
During her confinement, Evelyn thought she'd work on her culinary skills
Gruel got tiring after all
So a vampire came in and drained poor Adam
With Adam still laid out, it was up to Joseph to pick up the slack
He didn't seem all that happy about it
Evelyn was finally free of her confinement and shared her happiness with Mr Rooster
