Gina was attacked by rogue werewolves during the war and left for dead. Instead of dying, she transformed into a werewolf and stayed in that form not knowing how to transform back into a human. She was found by a group of werewolves and brought to Shane. :love: As Alpha and leader of the were's he can command a transformation that no wolf can ignore even a newbie one. Gina transformed back to her human state with his command, but has difficulty keeping her wolf side dormant. She will stay under Shane's protection and guidance until she learns to control her wolf.

Neither like the house that was picked for them but King Tyler wanted them nearby. They both think it looks like someone's maiden aunt used to live here. They both desire to live in a modern home with lots of open space and big windows to let the light in. They plan to hire an architect to build a suitable home nearby. For now, they will bear with this home.

The island needed someone skilled to help with the repairs needed to some of the homes and businesses. Andy McHandy, a werewolf in Shane's clan was the perfect choice. He worked with the military upgrading equipment and made a few inventions that turned the tide of the war. He prefers the artistry of sculpting rather than making war machines and jumped at the chance to help out on the island.

More and more applicants are requesting to move to Harmony Island. The Governors are going through each application to determine suitability. The close friends and family members of the current residents will have priority but as spots open up, others will be allowed to immigrate.

@bekkasan

Hey, I just found your thread :smiley: . Are you going to continue Mary's story too or did you decide to end it? I see Lorelei, Dwight and their kids are moving on with their life in this save ;) . It's great to see them again!

So many great-looking sims here, and beautiful screenshots too (as always) :blush: . Will be fun to see how their life will be on their new island.

@meerkattime I am going to finish Mary's story. hehe, @emorrill is nagging me! :heart: I had a rough patch in November and December as well as super busy with work and other things, and put it on hold. When I had time to play I either built or messed in Supernatural as I didn't have to do as much thinking. Writing doesn't come as easy to me as it does to others. I decided to do the introduction since I had so many pictures ready for Supernatural. I hope I won't have to work this weekend and perhaps can start writing for Mary.

Thank you! Yes, I had to bring Dwight and Lorelei forward to this story. I considered bringing the Ballan family but they would fill the whole world up by themselves. :lol: I need to fix their folder or move them to another one.

@CeresInay Thanks for reading and commenting. This story is a stand alone using sims that I've collected over the years from friends and the exchange, as well as some I created. I've wanted to use one of @Rflong7 worlds for years and finally have a desktop that should handle it.

Mary's story is separate and will be finished. I actually wrote a bit yesterday afternoon in it. I hope you enjoy getting to know Mary and the other characters in that story.

I enjoyed reading the presentations of the characters. :smile:

@Puddinroy Thank you!

@Pary Thank you! I think I will enjoy watching him. I begged @AlexaKry for him and she generously allowed me to use him as well as two of her other sims. :heart:

Bookmarked. The presentation of the characters was interesting. From the comments I realize that this is a kind of continuation of Mary Kendall's story. I'm reading that one, but I'm just in the first chapters. I hope I can read this while reading the other and not have to wait.
