@Duvelina I don't remember much of TS2, but TS3 was a real nightmare with that 0.o So many bugs. And the amount of work it took to get everything back to what it was just killed all of my motivation, just like you said yeah :sweat_smile: Rest in peace, stories killed by game bugs. Rest in peace.
@AdamsEve1231 I'm running out of time, so forgive me for recycling some pictures (and completely forgetting about Gawain. I'M SO SORRY MY LITTLE CINNAMON ROLL)
Morgana
Spoiler
Morgana, what is your favorite and least favorite thing about being a princess?
https://i.ibb.co/sgVqNp6/06-26-20-4-01-33-PM.jpg
“Hmm… I like telling people what to do. I really like playing social games with Father and the other nobles… as long as I win. I think we both hate losing. Arthur does, too, but not as much, I think.”
https://i.ibb.co/DV4xkNd/06-26-20-4-01-55-PM.jpg
“I hate how I can’t go wherever I want without people noticing. Father won’t let me go down to the village anymore, and he has guards following me all through the castle. But people notice even without the guards. There’s always someone watching. It gets very tiring sometimes.”
When did you first learn about your spellcasting abilities and how do you feel about them?
https://i.ibb.co/DV4xkNd/06-26-20-4-01-55-PM.jpg
”My father took Arthur and me on a hunting trip. They were hunting a deer. I think they shot it, but it got away. I remember staying behind because I was too small – father wanted me to come, but he wouldn’t let me hunt yet.
I think I wandered off to a pond… and the deer was there. I remember it bleeding really badly. It’s… a bit fuzzy in my head, but I remember feeling really sad for it, and wanting to give it a hug. The wound closed when I touched it. I thought that it did that on its own, but… Millicent told me it was magic. She was there, that day. They always take a doctor or healer with them on hunting trips, in case someone gets hurt. Gaius was always busy, so he’d tell Millicent to go. She was watching me when I found the deer. “

”She called me a fairy child.”
How do you feel about the future of your kingdom?
https://i.ibb.co/wd2gKyL/06-28-20-6-08-27-PM.jpg
"Um… I haven’t really thought about it. It would be nice if people didn’t have to hide their magic anymore, but that probably isn’t going to happen. Father hates it, and grandfather hated it, too. I don’t think Arthur will be much different… but we can hope, right?"
How did you and Merlin become friends?
https://i.ibb.co/sgVqNp6/06-26-20-4-01-33-PM.jpg
“He was there that day in the forest, when I healed the deer. Millicent always brought him with her when she went somewhere. I don’t know what happened to his parents, but he lived with her and Gaius. He said he could do magic, too. He made a flower bloom. It was so pretty.
Millicent wouldn’t teach me magic, but she did teach Merlin. And he taught it to me. Father used to need salves for his battle wounds, and Merlin would bring them over to the castle. We’d sneak out together on those days.”
https://i.ibb.co/Bs3j7pz/06-28-20-6-09-01-PM.jpg
“I hope he’s okay.”
Do you have personal goals, separate from your role as a princess?
https://i.ibb.co/DV4xkNd/06-26-20-4-01-55-PM.jpg
I… I know I’m supposed to grow up and marry and give my husband a son. But I don’t really care about that. I know it’s silly… but I want to look after Arthur. He’s a ponce, and he plays games, too, but he’s not as good at it as me. He’s going to be king when he grows up. Father has uncle Agravaine to help him… and I want to be like that for Arthur. Not with the preaching, and the angry sermons. But I want to watch his back. My brother is a total mymmerkin… but I know he’d do the same for me.
Okay now a silly question... I'll ask you, Morgana... Cats or dogs?

Arthur
Spoiler
What's your favorite sweet?
https://i.ibb.co/ggvJk3L/06-25-20-7-01-28-PM.jpg
“I really like cinnamon rolls.”
Arthur - What is your favorite and least favorite part about being a prince?
https://i.ibb.co/4d2Zmzv/06-25-20-7-02-07-PM.jpg
“I love being able to boss people around. I can carry a sword, and the captain of the guard is training me every week. They know I’m going to be great when I grow up.”
https://i.ibb.co/4W5BqPx/06-25-20-7-01-07-PM.jpg
“I don’t like how father forces me to study so many boring things. I already know about history and religion, okay? What does it matter who the duke’s third wife was over a decade ago? If I can’t remember, I should have servants to tell me who they are.”
https://i.ibb.co/ggvJk3L/06-25-20-7-01-28-PM.jpg
“Hmm… maybe I can rope Morgana into remembering it for me…”
How do you feel about being a crown prince and the responsibility that comes with it?
https://i.ibb.co/6PNqDJq/06-25-20-6-52-18-PM.jpg
“Okay… look. I know I can come across as a ponce, as Morgana puts it. And I hate being told to do things. But I know why father is so strict with me. Being king is really difficult, and if you don’t do it well, you’ll get killed. It’s the first thing I remember father telling me. So… I know it’s hard, okay?”
https://i.ibb.co/4W5BqPx/06-25-20-7-01-07-PM.jpg
“I just want to enjoy being a prince while I still can.”
Where do you see yourself in the future when you become king? If you could change one thing about the kingdom, what would it be and why?
https://i.ibb.co/ggvJk3L/06-25-20-7-01-28-PM.jpg
“I don’t know. If I become king, that means that father will be dead. I don’t want to think about that yet. But I think he’s a very fair king. He only goes after bad people. I want to be a fair king, too.”
Do you remember your mother? If I'm remembering correctly, she died after giving birth to Morgana...
https://i.ibb.co/WFh9KM3/06-28-20-6-33-31-PM.jpg

Uther
Spoiler
“Right, next batch of questions. Uther-“
https://i.ibb.co/0Q0jrQg/06-28-20-6-23-10-PM.jpg
“You will address me with ‘My Liege’ or ’Your Majesty‘.”
“… You do realize that I’m your creator, right?”
“Did I stutter?”
"Fine. Your majesty - what is your favorite and least favorite part of being king?
https://i.ibb.co/LtVh8K2/06-28-20-6-24-04-PM.jpg
“My favourite aspect of being ruler is being able to control the future of a nation. Britain is a magnificent country with a bright future, and I intend to do everything I can to rid her of magic and help her realize that future.”
“My least favourite would be the limitations placed upon us by the Watcher. King or not, my body is mortal, as are those of my loved ones. I am the most powerful man in our kingdom. Yet for all my power, I still wasn’t able to keep Ygraine with me.”
How about being a father?
https://i.ibb.co/ZckStnv/06-28-20-6-24-41-PM.jpg
“I greatly enjoy watching my son and daughter mature. They become more resourceful every day. I worry for Arthur, as he is fated to become king when I pass, but I also believe in him. I need to be strict with him for his sake, but I really am proud of the boy. In a way, I envy him. In time, Arthur will become my equal, and then he will surpass me.”
“As for Morgana… they say a man must love his sons more, for they will continue his legacy. But I sometimes envy Arthur, where for Morgana, I feel only love. She reminds me so much of her mother.”
How do you see the future of your kingdom? Any politicking you care to share with the class - like some more context that Morgana and Arthur may not know or understand?
https://i.ibb.co/0Q0jrQg/06-28-20-6-23-10-PM.jpg
“No. If Arthur and Morgana do not understand the fine workings of our politics, then I highly doubt that any of you would.”
“You do realize that you are speaking to the literal gods of creation here? Are you sure you want to belittle them? Beings who build and destroy universes as they see fit, toying with sim-lives and plunging generations into chaos for their own amusement?”

Agravain, why are you so aggravating? Jk... jk... okay, sort of serious.

How did you come to be in your role? How do you like your role? Is there anything you dislike about your role?
https://i.ibb.co/jzbSJRR/06-28-20-6-26-16-PM.jpg
“My past is my own. I can tell you how I became who I am in Camelot, though. I grew up with the Watcher, performing my priestly duties in Cornwall. When king Uther visited, he and I bonded. We had written contact for a long time, and when he came back the following year, I made sure that Ygraine and I left with him. My current status is a reward for my loyalty.”

Gaius - how did you know Millicent? Again if it isn't safe, feel free to decline to answer.
https://i.ibb.co/BPdDVkB/06-28-20-6-29-42-PM.jpg
“No, no, that’s all right. Millicent is… was… my wife. We opened our clinic together, although she kept her magic hidden from all but me. I actually spent years examining her healing abilities, to see if we could replicate them through alchemy somehow. Natural healers are rare, even among druids. If we could replicate their magic, we could find cures for many ailments that medicine cannot overcome, even when no healers are nearby.
I… never did figure that out. And it’s too late, now.”

Richard - how do you like being a prince? Is he a crown prince like Arthur? What is your favorite pastime... beside spying on Morgana? Lol.

“I think he went off to sim school, Watcher.”
“Oh, for Llama’s sake.”

Okay, I think I've got most of it :sweat_smile: Thank you so much for all the feedback this week, guys. I learned a lot, and I think I'll be able to make ToC a better story now!
Now to see whose turn it is next week... I'm very excited to find out!
