Sorry, I did not mean to post this so late. I went in game and did a bit more to make progress towards getting a chapter updated and time got ahead of me. I'll try to make my build update tomorrow before I do things in game.
Anyways, here' the build progress for 04/26:
Right now, I'm transferring things from my older save to my new save. For this build, I am making it a residential rental that all my merfolk will live in. The first household in my rotation is the Zalrian Pod, so I started getting their grotto finished first. Just getting everything moved from rooms I saved to the gallery and arranging things the way I wanted took an entire hour. Eventually, I'll be doing everything from scratch.
Other things I lost time doing today involve getting things sorted out with the Vatore Pod. For my Story Refresh, I decided to focus more on one storyline instead of doing so much unfocused. Naturally, it will follow the Little Merman theme, but I'm hoping it will be a little less all over the place.
Damion's Lair:
Part of setting things up involved setting in motion Damion's involvement with other merfolk and making sure he has a functioning lair. For the most part everything works, but the Sea Witch Cauldron appears bugged when contracts are being used with the cauldron. I'm going to redownload the mod to see if that helps. If it doesn't I'll let, Spinning Plumbob know.
The most challenging part of this was deciding on how Damion would display his collection. Damion wants to collect the Love, Voices, Youth, and Souls of Merfolk, Vampires, Humans, Spellcasters, Fairies, Witches, Werewolves, and if he learns of their existence, Aliens. That's 32 different Sims he wants to collect things from. He might get duplicates along the way too. Crystal Creations had a really nice display that could almost be used to "Lock" the objects of his collection in, but I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't actually lock the cases and they didn't quite look the way I wanted them to. If he finishes his collection, I might use them for his particular favorites in his collection. Where I'll put them will come later.
Additionally, I went into CAS to make some minor changes to Damion's appearance. At this point in the story, he will be a little more consumed by darkness from dealing in dark sea sorcery.
The Guardians of the Sea and their role in preventing the Darkness of the Ocean Abyss from braking free will be returning to my SimLit Story. For that, I built the actual seal the Guardians are maintaining.

The grotto is looking great! 🙂The design is very nice. The chess, study desk and table area is great, and very nice display shelves on the wall.
