I am moving and continuing my Wyrd Girls story from What Happened In Your Game Today? over here to Creative Corner. I plan to repost and possibly expand the existing story here and, of course, continue it. - L

She needed to say her farewells... https://i.imgur.com/DpPltRp.png
... and he offered her what comfort he could, knowing from long experience that grief would pass in it's own time. https://i.imgur.com/jDwzkVm.png
"Please, Kristopher," Miranda pleaded, "we can't let them get away this. We have to do something." https://i.imgur.com/gdH0xv0.png
"I'm sorry," Kristopher said sadly. "I promised you and your mother I would protect you, but I will not fight a war for you. It is not my way." https://i.imgur.com/wRLoJGd.png
Alright, Miranda thought, it isn't your way... but I'll find my way. https://i.imgur.com/rS83sNq.png
Returning to Moonwood Mill, Miranda threw herself into improving her magic. https://i.imgur.com/Xj5POg2.png
Jake had found references in the Journal to a hidden chamber that held relics left over from the old conflict with the vampires. Miranda was absolutely determined to find it. https://i.imgur.com/M32oFjJ.png
Unfortunately, after getting lost in the dark and nearly breaking her ankle, the others were adamant that Miranda was not to go down there. If Nick hadn't gotten her out, she might not have made it on her own. https://i.imgur.com/dR1IQ0o.png
He and Jake handled the searching from then on. https://i.imgur.com/Rc3vg1T.png
With fall coming to a close, Beth embraced her inner domestic goddess and cooked up a feast for everyone. https://i.imgur.com/YTb4sUH.png
Jake thanked her thoroughly... to everyone's amusement. https://i.imgur.com/2qrmKMj.png
"Oh my God!" Miranda cried out. "Have you guys seen this?"
"What you actually have signal?"
"Not that," Miranda grinned, "though this is like the third time my phone's worked since I got here... but the news. The cops have broken up a big crime ring. They arrested a lot of important people and they're looking for Vlad Straud! He's on the run!" https://i.imgur.com/iAxE6qb.png
"That's amazing," Jake said, "I don't know if that makes this better or what, but we all kinda got you something. Well, I say 'got' ... found it, really." https://i.imgur.com/8aOoaQr.png
"My lord, the wards below Moonwood have been undone."
"They have found the wand." https://i.imgur.com/D3yuSsy.png
"Good," Vlad hissed. "We approach the endgame now, Faust. Perhaps not as strongly positioned as I had planned, but the game will be mine." https://i.imgur.com/XILMi7j.png
@luciusstorm Another excellent episode! Beth was well and truly thanked.? I love Miranda's determination to get revenge on Vlad. When an important job needs done send a woman to do it. My apologies and to you and the other good guys!
I've been feeling the same pain you have. I've been spending time with Matteo and Liberty hoping for something good I can use for the story, but they haven't cooperated. Those romantic photos were from the main story save, they were from the backup save. I was messing around and thought it would be fun to stage some steamy photos. Now I want them to give me a show like that in the main save.?
@DaniRose2143, I confess I did a lot of start and stop... nope don't save that, wait go back and try that again, blast forgot I needed a shot of that... this has got to have been one the hardest updates to put together yet. I dread to think what's to come... because they are not going to get easier. I think maybe staging an occult war wasn't the simplest storyline to tackle my first time out. :)

@luciusstorm Your doing a fantastic job! I think in my case I may have to relent and force something to happen if Lib and Matteo don't liven things up. I do have an idea....
Finally had a chance to catch up on the new thread here. I had a busy week, and have been doing so much reading on the forums that I haven't even touched my own game! This story continues to be so fascinating. Great job!
Her old wand, gifted to her by Gwen, had been an elegant tool, which Miranda used to shape her magic. The Moonwood Wand felt like an extension of her arm, her heart and her magic. It was almost a living thing and eager to be run after its long sleep. https://i.imgur.com/Mv9k9WL.png
"You know," Nick said catching up to her, "the school bus is the other way." https://i.imgur.com/MTZgZR3.png
"Oh, yeah," Miranda said sheepishly. "I'm just..."
"Cuttin' school," Nick grinned. "No big... I do that all the time. School's not really my thing. So... where you goin'?" https://i.imgur.com/3Pr2Ziu.png
"Ok, but it's a secret," Miranda said. "You can't tell anyone. I'm going to Glimmerbrook! I need to show my moms the wand!" https://i.imgur.com/OVuHtQm.png
"Right, cool," Nick said. "So, you know how to get there?"
"Well," Miranda admitted, "no."
"So, hitchhiking to a place you've never while being hunted by vampires," Nick said.
"Well, when you put it that way it sounds dumb."
"Right," Nick nodded. "We'll take my dad's truck."
"OK," Miranda said. "Wait... we?"
"Yeah, I'm goin' with you... to keep you safe. That's the deal, right. Keep you safe." https://i.imgur.com/E4F081R.png
"So, this is Henford?" Nick asked.
"Technically Finchwick," Miranda said. "I grew up here. Funny, it looks... smaller. Anyway, that friend I called should be meeting us here. He said he can help give us directions." https://i.imgur.com/n0DGqS6.png
"Hi Imran? How about - Hey, Imran sorry for disappearing and not being in touch for months but hey, I'm not dead?" Imran laughed. "Look at you... all, not-dead!" https://i.imgur.com/IIHMAnz.png
"So, how 'bout it Imran," Nick asked. "You know how to find this Glimmerbrook place? 'Cause Miranda's phone app says it ain't there... like it ain't anywhere." https://i.imgur.com/OHpnHjl.png
"Which is weird, right," Imran said, "but yeah, my dad had an old atlas and I found it." https://i.imgur.com/gdbrMX7.png
"Look," Imran went on, "It's already pretty late. Why don't you guys spend the night at my place? My folks won't mind. Then we can go over the maps and you can head out in the morning." https://i.imgur.com/pi9qapi.png
I actually struggled a little bit with that line. Rewrote it a few times because I'm a little uncertain as to how much is too much for the T for Teen rating (since most teens of my experience are pretty solidly rated MA). I'd love to have a bit more "creative freedom" than American Puritanism allows but at the same time the restriction is a challenge and challenges are good.
