Always Keep Simming - Colins Birthright

Always Keep Simming - Colin‘s Birthright

Colin entered the Magic Realm’s Headquarters. He didn’t remember anything about this place and still, as he searched for the office of the headmaster, a strange feeling overtook him. As if something inside him stirred and had opened an eye. The air was thick with magic and so different from the real world. It filled him with energy and he felt more alive than ever. Finally, he arrived at the office of the headmaster, the sage of mischief magic - Jenna Blackburn.

This got so long sorry 🙈 keep reading below ⬇️

Master Blackburn was not surprised to see her grandson. She‘d already predicted his arrival and felt his magic the moment he had entered the Magic Realm. Colin had never seen his grandmother in person before but he wasn’t interested in long conversations. He had read a lot on Jenna Blackburn during his research. He‘d come to the conclusion that she was a cunning spellcaster, not to be trusted and definitely not in the slightest sentimental. In fact, his grandmother started the conversation by saying „Well, I was thinking you’d never come to claim your birthright. Seems I’ve been wrong and you have more Spellcaster blood in you than I thought.“ „I’m not interested in any birthright. I need help“, Colin explained. He was already starting to get annoyed and regret coming here but there was no turning back. So, he kept it short and to the point: He told her that he needed help dealing with forces from space. The only occult that could stand against alien magic were the spellcasters, as they could protect their mind and body with spells. Thus, Colin asked his grandmother to grant him one wish: To protect his family. However, Master Blackburn was not one to grant any wishes without getting something for herself in return. His grandmother surveyed him critically. „I have a proposal for you...“ „I‘d do anything“, Colin said quickly. „If you want to protect your family, you‘ll do it yourself. You are a Blackburn after all. Surrender to me, let me unlock your magic, teach you. Become a Master Spellcaster and continue my legacy“, she proposed. „Continue your legacy?“, Colin asked confused. „You don’t mean..“. „I do. I‘ll make you the next greatest spellcaster after me and you’ll have the power to protect your family. In exchange, you will claim your birthright and become my rightful heir“, Jenna Blackburn explained. „It’s the least you can do really, you are the reason my precious son ran away with that non-magical creature that was your mother and got himself killed. I don’t have an heir and cannot grant leadership to the other sages, the entire Magic Realm would perish“, she explained. Colin was conflicted. He couldn’t deny that ever since he‘d found out about the origins of his biological parents, he’d been curious about the Magic Realm, about what it would be like to possess magic. But after what had happened to his parents, he had sworn to himself and to his adoptive parents that he’d never go down this road. His father had put a spell on him that could only be broken by the same blood. It surpressed his magic so that his grandmother couldn’t find him outside of the Magic Realm. Until this moment, he’d stilled his thirst of knowledge by studying the history of all other kinds of occults instead. Becoming a sage wasn’t what he had imagined for his future but he’d make it work. He was a professor after all and had excellent management skills. He‘d just find someone to stay in the Magic Realm in his stead for the time he was at home. He‘d agree to anything at this point, just to protect his family.

„Alright, then. Do it“, Colin said. His grandmother stood behind him, her wand raised and with a triumphant smile on her face. „I hereby free your magic. When my remaining days are spent, you will take over my place as the headmaster of the Magic Realm and you will remain in this Realm forever. You will be bound to this Realm. For eternity. If you leave the Magic Realm after becoming a sage, your entire family will be cursed and perish.“

Always Keep Simming - On the Search for Help

Colin followed the light of the Ufo until they disappeared and stayed outside for hours. He was unsure whether he should wait for Aileen’s return or just go where he had to. Finally, the ufo appeared again and Aileen was transported to the front of their house. Relieved, Colin continued his journey. He’d left Aileen a message explaining he had some work emergency (rare artifacts being found and having to be identified immediately) and would be gone for a long time. He traveled by bus all through the night and exited at the edge of a thick dense forest. No Sims ever set foot into there but Colin knew what was laying beyond.

It was still dark outside, cold and raining. Soon, Colin was shivering and soaking wet. After what felt like an eternity, he finally saw the lights of the tavern. He’d only seen paintings of it in books but it was exactly how he had imagined it would be.

When Colin entered, there were a few young adults at the bar, chatting and drinking. Soft music was playing in the background. Upstairs, he could hear sims playing games. He ordered something to drink and eat and carefully observed the sims around him. One of the young adults finally noticed him and asked him who he was and where he was from. When Colin told him his name, the sim was shocked and apologized for not noticing him. He offered Colin to come home with him, have something warm to eat and shower and get some rest. As much as Colin was eager to get to his destination, he needed someone’s help. And he was exhausted. The other sim introduced himself as Maddox Nerwida and took him to his home. There, Colin fell asleep immediately.

Fully rested and feeling better, Colin asked Maddox to accompany him to the portal to the Magic Realm. Maddox and his sisters and friends came along with them. And so, Colin finally entered the Magic Realm - his birthplace - for the first time in 27 years.🪄
