I Just Want To See The Floating Plumbobs Gleam

“I have to find my way back.”

“Why?” Turq’s tone was abrupt, sharp.

“I just… I have to. I don’t know.”

“Because you run. All you do is run. You ran away from home and ended up here, and now that you’re here you have to run away again. Can’t you just accept that sometimes life hands you things you need to face? Why can’t you just stay with me?”

“It’s not like that…” The anger and hurt in his eyes was too much for her to bear.

“No, it’s EXACTLY like that. You can’t accept that there might be a place for you. You can’t accept that someone might actually WANT you to stick around. Well then, go. Run. See if I chase after you again.”

With that she turned and ran, while Turq felt his heart drop into his stomach.

“Elaie! Wait! I didn’t mean it!”

But she was gone.

“So, how DID you end up here?” “I ran…” Elaie concentrated hard on her marshmallows, forcing the memories of those horrifying eyes to the back of her mind. “Oh.” They sat in a moment of silence. “How about you?” “I opened a door I wasn’t supposed to.” “That’s awfully vague. Care to elaborate?” He barked a laugh. “I don’t know what there is to say. I mean, I was working at the hospital, went down a hall in the basement, opened the door… Let’s just say I was prying.” “… What’s a hospital?” He shot her a confused look before remembering she wasn’t from his time. “It’s a building dedicated to getting people to feel better.” “Were you important?” “Berry no; I was just a resident… I mean, I was still learning.” “Oh.” She poked at the fire, then smiled up at him. “Well I’m glad we’re both here. I’m glad we met.” He grinned back. “Me too.”

A wild horse appeared! It used “distract.”

Super effective!

Following the horse took all day, and she had gotten herself lost before she knew it. The sounds from her world returned to her head, and she grew paranoid, checking all around her for monsters and demons.

“Elaie!”

Turq’s exclamation of her name caused her to jump.

“Let’s go back to camp. Come on.” He offered his arm to her and she latched on tightly.

“I’m finding my way out of here, whether you stay or tag along.” “You’re not going to find it in one day, you know.” “Fine then, I’ll do this on my own. Farewell, Turq.”

Even in broad daylight, monsters can prowl.

They stick to the shadows though, keeping clear of the sun’s rays. The clacking and growling growing closer and closer, no matter how far you run, until they’re right behind you. You turn around…

and the last thing you see is a swath of death before everything goes black.

Some say there’s an Afterlife; a place where all, regardless of species, go to wait for the day of judgement. There’s no recollection of past; all is washed away until the appointed hour.

At least, that’s what the Elven elders taught before Elaie Varlashin ran, incurring the wrath of some horrific being; all only to find herself in some distant land beyond the boundaries of any map. Something told her this wasn’t the Afterlife; she had her memories.

Then who was this standing over her? Better question: where was she?

Mad Woman Crossing: Tutorial for Mac users - how to bypass the launcher for Sims 3

shannachka:

This tutorial - like the title says - is for Mac users.

First and foremost, download this mod. It’s called NRaas NoCD and basically does exactly what it says, allows you to play the game without the CD.

Since a certain patch number, all patches have been to the base game and haven’t mattered…

Just posted this to my personal blog - felt it required a reblog to my simblr.

Poor simblr. You need love. <3
