Lost Legacies Gameplay Thread (Ending March 16)

A duel, huh? Arthur only got to beat Marina in a game of chess...

Cordelia and Lucifer look very elegant in their Royal Gala outfits ❤️It was good that Consort Capp allowed Lucifer to borrow his sword when Marina stormed in and ended up challenging him to a sword duel! Congratulations to him on winning and knocking the sword out of her hand! 🙂The photos of the duel are great!  The end photos of Cordelia and Lucifer together are lovely💗
I am wondering what now happens with Marina who had boarded the pirate ship? Will she get away or not?

A few days pass and nothing from the Royal Envoy, Marina. There is a Royal Gala during the evening hours and Lady Cordelia wants Lucifer to be her escort. He tells her this is when he will confess to the other royal families and return their keys back to them. She asks him to hold off and that the evening is for enjoyment.

As the evening hours come, Lucifer and Cordelia arrive at the entrance to where the Royal Gala is being held. A man dressed in a suit greets Lady Cordelia.

Cordelia introduces the man to Lucifer as her escort and he lets them in.

Lucifer and Cordelia found a table to sit at. There, she points out some of the townsfolk and let him know who they were. He recently met the Capp family.

Cordelia notices the Darong royal family enter and invites them over to the table. She introduces Lucifer to Sef and his wife Lina. Their daughter, Delilah, was tagging along behind.

As everyone is mingling and enjoying each other’s company, the Royal Envoy, Marina, pushes past the man at the entrance doors and barges in.

Marina finds Lucifer and approaches him. She demands he give her the key he stole from her as well as any other keys he’s found. She tries to lay claim to them. Lucifer responds with not a chance.

Marina pulls out a sword and points it at Lucifer. She threatens if he won’t give them to her, she’ll take them. Lucifer knows he can easily overpower her and needs to put on a show. He glances around and sees Consort Capp’s sword in his sheath. He motions for it and Consort does not hesitate to toss it over to Lucifer. A duel ensues between Lucifer and Marina.

The sword fight draws a crowd. Cordelia is upset that Marina would do this. Especially at a gala.

After a short while, Lucifer decides he’s had enough fun and knocks the sword from Marina’s hand with his own sword, and she falls to the ground. Lucifer points his sword at her and says enough is enough.

Cordelia steps in-between Lucifer and Marina. She tells Marina she’s done a bit of research on her. Although, she has the title of Emissary to the royal families, Cordelia says she knows she comes from a family of thieves. Having the three family keys would resort her into being able to run all three kingdoms.

Cordelia turns to Lucifer and smiles at him. I think we were destined to meet. She tells him he was brought here to stop Marina from fulfilling her plans.

Cordelia turns to Sef Darong who in turn hands her a ribboned box. She turns back to Lucifer and presents the box to him. Lucifer opens the box.

Inside the box was a golden key with a patina and a seashell crown. This is the key to the Thebe Royal Family.

Cordelia smiles again at Lucifer and says that she talked it over with the Capp and Darong families. They are allowing him to keep their royal family keys to ensure others like Marina do not get their hands on them. The two go in for a hug.

Cordelia turns to where Marina was supposed to be but is no longer there. She is told that Marina left. Cordelia encourages everyone to continue to enjoy themselves and invites them all to dance, with Lucifer as her partner.

That night, as Lucifer gets ready for slumber, he places the final key in the curio display table.

The next morning, the formerly Royal Envoy, Marina Corsair, boards a pirate ship with a few men.

The End?

Thank you so much for your kind comments, which are full of details. Although many people think Marina's actions are unforgivable, which I agree with, I want to give her a chance as the sim population. I wouldn't be kind to her if she were a real human thought. lol

Your comments have always motivated me to continue and complete the story in my way. Thanks for taking the time to comment on each post with concentration!

It was very kind of Olivia not to report Marina. I hope that it does help Marina to change her ways and not plan something like this again. Having Marina listening to Olivia singing in the nightclub was a lovely way to end the event ❤️I hope that this will be a fresh start to a good new stage in Marina’s life. 

Alexander does look quite puzzled as to why Olivia found the phone in the rubbish bin! 🙂Congratulations to Olivia on collecting all the keys! It was a great idea for her to make a duplicate copy of the keys using her spellcaster powers. Flying on her broom was a very quick way of reaching Marina before she fled away on the ferry! 

Olivia and Lost Legacies missions #6 (Week 4 - Part 2) - Final

Olivia could report it without fear. She had the status and connection that could protect her.

However, Olivia, who had a soft spot for anyone who was a friend (her charisma skill was too good, plus the bonus trait, it's too easy to make friends from the start), tried to convince Marina to give up the plan, so Olivia would forgive her.

Success, Marina agreed with Olivia, as she had no better choice.

She was lucky that she dealt with Olivia (and me, who was too soft-hearted to make enemies or kill premade sims.)

Marina sighed with relief and a smile.

She promised that she wouldn't do that again. (I hope so; if she makes me annoyed, I will just "delete" her)

Actually, I didn't like her from the start, both visually and in her attitude. So, I decided to play the event in my 3rd save instead of my main save, where I collected every event item.

However, I have such a collector mindset that I can't delete any sim that already appeared as part of my sims' story. I even revived some townies that I deleted before, after finding that they appeared in my screenshot before and did not look that bad.

Marina will survive in my save file, but maybe with some makeover. I will leave her traits as they are because I disable steal actions with mods already.

Back to the story, while they were talking, there was someone sneaking behind.

Not behind anymore.

Is it too risky for Olivia if the tabloid makes the story that she is talking with the Royal Robber? At least, if Marina still kept her job and reputation, that would be fine.

(Olivia may start to hesitate about her decision, but she will think positively for now)

Afterward, as she had time left, Olivia came back to the nightclub and did a comedy routine for the audience.

Surprisingly, Marina came to join in watching as well.

Marina was fishing before, and I was surprised that she autonomously came into the nightclub too.

Olivia hoped that her voice could change Marina's mind...

And bring goodness and harmony in this world!

End

-----------------------

It might sound too idealistic, but I want to write about something like this in my own world. The situation around my life and my country is so bad enough. I just want to have goodness in the place I can control.

-Bonus-

Carlos López is so cute! lol I found him visiting the nightclub a lot.

Olivia and Lost Legacies missions #5 (Week 4 - Part 1)

Although Marina was already ahead of them, Olivia and Edgar tried to catch up to her again. They knew from people in the park that Marina ran off towards the Blue Velvet Nightclub.

Olivia tried to call Marina, no answer from her. However, she heard the phone ring from the nearby trash can. That's right, this was her phone!

Alexander Goth, who was also Olivia's fan (so many fans right now), was curious why Olivia found the phone in the trash can.

Olivia found "My Retirement Master Plan" that required the password. She discussed with Edgar, but Edgar had to go to work right now. So, Olivia headed back home.

Also, she got the last key from the collection, it's the Thebe Family Key!

But... How did she get it? She can't remember when it's in her inventory, together with Marina's phone. This was so mysterious!

(I didn't know too. I thought I recorded every event's dialogue, but I didn't find when this key was mentioned. If anyone knows, please tell me.)

Anyway, the collection was complete!

Olivia thought she should return those keys to those who belonged to them when she had a chance. But she liked the design of keys and wanted to collect them as well. So, she used her Duplicato spell to duplicate it... and keep only the copy for herself.

(This was a coincidence that I used Spellcaster to do the story. So, I can write this kind of good intention lol.)

Now it's time to find Marina before it's too late!

Thanks to these event items for making this room have the centerpiece to get the final touch.

After asking the mixologist, Olivia knew that Marina was going to the lake.

That's her! She had already reached the lake. Will Olivia can catch up?

Now it's time to use the spellcaster ability, the magic broom!

After Marina noticed Olivia, she tried to escape.

I didn't know if this was programmed or a routing issue, but she ran away immediately after Olivia landed.

Olivia didn't let Marina go; she called her to face each other.

They were arguing with each other.

(Sorry, my limited English skills can't tell a complex story like others. Please let imagination go from the pic.)

Marina tried to intimidate her into not reporting it, claiming no one would believe her. Olivia, however, thought she should report it anyway.

Will she do it?

To be continued...

(Because I may already reach the photo limit if I post everything here.)

dbmcgrew​ Really annoying to have to edit messages that don't even have anything wrong with them. I've only had one issue with the AI bot, but now, every time I post anything, I hold my breath. It's just one more Big Brother in our lives! 🙄 Crazy. 

In my case, I'm still not sure what the bot flagged in that post. At first, I thought it was some phrase I used that the bot wrongly interpreted, but when I reposted just the screenshots, it was deleted again. So, I tried one more time and removed one pic. That post went through. The screenshot was just of my couple snuggling in bed after a long day. I thought it was sweet. Apparently, the AI bot thought otherwise. It was a regular interaction in the game! Nothing risqué about it at all. 😒 

Your simself is not very happy with Marina! It is a great photo of Marina storming off and her waving goodbye in annoyance! 🙂The pouring rain seems to fit their upset moods.
