Year 1608 Part 3:

Adrian made sure to drop by his old home and ran into Gilbert’s son Julian and his family luckily they let him in to recall his old home. Talia’s original tome remained where it had been when Adrian had left for Tartosa all those years ago and when he had last seen his late father before he passed. Maybe the watcher was on his side but the day Adrian visited his old home he also met the spirit of his father and had a lovely reunion just after learning that Terric had become the father of a little girl named Yura. 

That October, Grace informed the family through Talia’s tome that Sofia’s paternal grandmother had remarried which was notable. 

Susanna and Takuya’s marriage continued to fall apart as Takuya had little patience for his wife even when she suffered from severe cramping that left her exhausted. Thankfully, Adrian was able to help with Nathaniel while Susanna took comfort from her friendship with Larissa. 

Susanna learned in December that her niece and nephew had a new brother named Jarod which was a good way to end the year.

Year 1608 Part 2:

The family continued to have more new members as Aniyah and Samuel welcomed their son, Mathias, into the world just before Alton and Janet had their son, Adrien.

Adrian then arrived at his daughter’s home just in time to dote on his young great-grandchildren. Then news came that Susanna had a son named Nathaniel. 

While Susanna loved her son, she was starting to get a bit more disenchanted by her marriage which meant that Adrian’s visit was a welcome change in her day. 

Sofia turned six and definitely seemed to take more after her mother than her father but she was still young.

Year 1607 Part 3:

TW/CW: Death Mention

The Applegate/Pancakes home continued to be full of life and it was soon revealed that Susanna and her husband had settled near their home which meant that the child Susanna was expecting would not lack playmates. 

Rodrigo remarried a woman named Anastasia in September then came the news that Ambrose had died. It was inevitable that age would come for him but it was still heartbreaking nonetheless. 

November brought with it the joy of learning that the future head of the Mayne household married the youngest of John Laurent II’s daughters. Which meant that since, Corinne married in July, until John the third had a son, Sofia became the sole heir to the Laurent family. Not only that but Carlo, celebrated his first birthday with his father, sister, and step-mother. 

But November also brought sadness with it as Sarah’s husband, Antonio, died after getting cornered by wild animals. 

Unfortunately that was how the year ended for the family with not much happening in December.

Year 1606 Part 4:

Grace became a teenager and looked remarkably like her grandmother, Samara. 

Susanna got married to a traveler named Takuya from Mt. Komorebi on December 18th. 

While Janet and Alton who were both widowed with a child of their own decided to marry on the last day of the year with their vows witnesses by their young children.
